OJ is one thing I use to jump my BG quickly. I over-estimated Carbs for lunch today and was down to 58(3.2). I drank a 6 oz.(177mL) can of OJ and 15 minutes later I was 92(5.1)--weak as a kitten though and I have to use spell check on everything right now LOL.
Chocolate, on the other hand, takes a long time. Even Chocolate frozen custard. I tried that once while out shopping with my wife when I got hit by a low and it really didn't have an effect. I was forced, FORCED, I say

to drink some regular Coke to get BG back up in the normal range.
