Jupiter is still considered a planet. It is Pluto that lost its status as a planet. In 2006 the International Astronomical Union developed a definition for a planet. One of the criteria is that the object must be able to clear its orbital path of other objects, which Pluto has failed to do.

Does a chocolate weigh more on Jupiter or Earth?

The weight of matter on any planet depends upon the gravitational force of that planet. Jupiter has more gravitational force than Earth, so anything (including chocolate) would weigh more there. (Jupiter has no true surface, so you could not weigh anything there.)
