The amount of fructose in chocolate depends directly on how much sugar it contains. Chocolate is, for textural reasons, typically made using table sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup. Table sugar, or sucrose, is a disaccharide -- a sugar formed out of two monosaccharides, or simpler sugars, the two in the case of sucrose being glucose and fructose. Sucrose is half-fructose and half-glucose by mass, so to find out the fructose content of a serving of chocolate, check the number of grams of sugar per serving listed on the wrapper and divide that number by half to find the number of grams of fructose per serving.
