Chocolate Stains

How do you get rid of a chocolate pudding stain that's been set into a comforter? It has been through the wash and dry cycle once already in cold water? My friend got it on my blanket and it makes me mad that she refuses to fess up to it, so I would really like to get it gone.

There isn't much Dawn dish liquid soap won't get out. Pre-treat it with Dawn, let it sit and wash.

Try 3% hydrogen peroxide. Lightly soak the area for a minute or two and then rub the fabric against itself, rinse and then wash with a gentle soap. You may have to reapply the peroxide an extra time or two. Test first in an inconspicuous spot for color fastness.

And, no offense meant to you, but what's the big deal if your friend doesn't fess up? And did you stop to think that it might not be a chocolate pudding stain after all and she was telling the truth it wasn't a pudding stain and she's simply embarrassed for maybe having had a human function mishap? In either event, lighten up because friends are far, far more important than having a stained blanket!
