Why does ice melt faster than chocolate?
Chocolate has a higher melting point than Ice. Ice is around 1 degree, where as chocolate is higher. Therefore, the second ice is taken to above 0 degrees, it melts.
Is there gluten in dark chocolate?
No, chocolate does not contain gluten.
If you are a celiac, the gluten which affects celiacs is the protein found in wheat, barley, rye, and triticale. It is typically found in oats, too, due to cross-contamination in wheat sources. Even if you are not a celiac, you really don't have to be concerned.
Chocolate is a completely different plant. It is not a grain, like the plants listed above, and its 'fruit' is in bean form. It's from this that chocolate candy is made.
Certain candies may contain wheat components. There are some candy bars, for instance, which have cookies or cookie bits in them. THOSE would most likely have gluten.
The purer the chocolate you purchase, the less chance of contamination.
To digress a bit, I myself am not only a celiac, I am also highly allergic to dairy and corn, as well as all parts of the wheat (there is a difference between having a gluten intolerance and a wheat allergy! HUUUGE difference! Celiac/ gluten intolerance would cause stomach issues - like vomiting or "other" issues; an allergy can cause anaphylactic shock!) I purchase the Lindt 80 - 90% cocoa bars because they do not contain wheat or dairy, nor corn syrup as many candies do. They are a bit more expensive but you need far less to satisfy a chocolate craving!
So, no - chocolate DOES NOT contain gluten. If you have more questions about celiac, allergies, or chocolate, I am not an expert, but having lived with extensive food allergies my whole life, I can at least answer a few questions on the topic!!

What is The difference between cocoa butter and vegetable fats?
Fat cells are made up mainly of two types of molecules known as, fatty acids and glycerol. Fatty acids can either be saturated or unsaturated. Saturated fatty acids tend to have no double bonds, as a result they are linear. It is easy for the saturated fatty acids to pack more tightly together and be solid in room temperature (lard for example). Whereas, unsaturated fatty acids are not linear and therefore tend to be liquid at room temperature. Vegetable oil is a type of unsaturated fatty acid obtained from a variety of plants. In other words a fat is solid and vegetable oil is liquid at room temperature, but both are composed of triglycerides (a long-term energy storage for animals, which is stored in fat cells in adipose tissue).
Hope that helps! (:
Does chocolate actually have insect parts?
Yes. When the ingredients of chocolate are being transported, (no, America gets the ingredients from the jungle) insects land on the ingredients. Since there must be some sticky part, they get stuck and die or just are killed and thrown out onto the pile. Plus, it's a jungle, people! There must be no insects in the jungle (not). So, there are too many insects to throw out, so there are still bodies and parts in the ingredients. When they mix up all the ingredients all together, they splatter all into the whole batch. When the chocolate is sold, there are still pieces in the chocolate. Then people like you eat it, you get insect parts floating in your body! Good for you!

Why was George Cadbury important?
When the two sons of John Cadbury took over the company in 1861, they had many new ideas and visions for the future growth of the company. In 1878, they purchased land in Bournbrook, and had soon built Bournville, a chocolate factory as well as a village surrounding the factory to support the lives of the Cadbury employees. Most importantly, in 1905, after this move to Bournville, Cadbury released its Dairy Milk bar. This candy bar used a higher proportion of milk than all other chocolate bars at the time, and it became the foundation for all Cadbury chocolate. To this day, Cadbury Dairy Milk bars are the top-selling candy produced by the company.
