Good luck Iron Chefs!

With "Milk chocolate" is it ok to use the high cocoa bars aswell? And what about Cocoa powder ?

I doubt it, since cocoa bars/powder aren't anything close to milk chocolate.
 
The judges' choice was specific. We debated this, but ultimately we went with milk chocolate to encourage some real creativity. The spirit of IC is to push our skills. With Battle Egg, the recipes weren't the challenge, adapting them to the grill was. Milk chocolate is going to push it further.

The biggest issue with a tough ingredient was the fear factor. It seemed like people are reluctant to compete, and we didn't want to deter others from trying. Hopefully you guys can show the rest of the board how much fun this can be, even with a challenging ingredient. I know the judges aren't looking for perfection, keep that in mind, wink wink.
 
It's going to be a HOT chocolate battle, my friends. Gird your loins, Swedes! Here's the message from Team America: eat our <STRIKE>dust</STRIKE> M&Ms. Er...and happy cooking.

The Swedes are boldly tipping their hand, letting us know what to expect from each member. Quite a move of confidence.

And what do we get in return from the Americans?
