How do I get chocolate frosting out of the carpet?

Question

So, we got chocolate frosting on our light carpet. Its a light grayish sort of color. So it happened on Sunday night, and we tried to get it out that night, but a few hours later. Now, we're trying even harder with hot spot, and everything like that. It won't come out? Tips? Plus, we can't go out of the house to get shampooer or anything like that. HELP!

Answer 2

It's a protein, like blood. Try Oxy-Clean with hot water. If you do not have that, try dabbing plain Hydrogen Peroxide in small amounts on it with a clean white rag.

Answer 3

Get to those stains fast. Scrape off as much chocolate residue as you can. Then, with a white paper towel or clean cloth, apply dry-cleaning fluid to the stain and blot. If any stain remains, apply a solution of 1/4 teaspoon mild white detergent and 1 cup room-temperature water. Work from the outer edge of the stain to the middle -- always blotting, not rubbing. Rinse with clear water to remove soap residue.

How to Remove Chocolate Stains from Carpets and Furniture

Since we can’t exactly stick your couch or your carpet into the washing machine, we’re going to have to do something a little different for these items than we would with regular clothing.

   1. Allow the chocolate stain to dry and scrape as much from the fabric as possible using a blunt instrument like a butter knife.

   2. Lay a couple of layers of paper towels over the stained area.

   3. Run an iron over the paper using one of the lowest settings and without steam. This will make the chocolate begin to melt, and the heat will pull it into the paper towels. Move the towels around as they absorb more chocolate and replace as necessary until the stain is gone. The trick is to get the iron hot enough to just barely melt the chocolate, too hot and you risk spreading the stain.

   4. If a dark spot is left behind, follow up with either a spot treatment, or scrub with some dish detergent and blot dry.

Good luck! Be more careful next time and be sure to share your chocolate stain removal tips with others by using the form below!
