Choclate is best preserved in the mouth.
It was created for this one purpose only. Do not deny it.
I'd check the use by date, if it's later than december 06, then i think it will be ok. But i'm not an expert on these things.
Life is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while there's a Peanut Butter Cup or an English Toffee. But they're gone too fast and the taste is... fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth-shattering nuts. And if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you got left is an empty box... filled with useless brown paper wrappers.
I usually just buy my mother a pair of slippers for christmas, she said she wanted a pair of slippers one year, so i've done it ever since. I think she relys on me totally for slippers now. One of these days i'll cut off the supply and watch her suffer.
...so if I put it in the fridge for a few months would that be okay? Or would it take in all the other flavors of everything else in it?
Why would you have to put it in a fridge, a cool dry place would probably do it and the parents might not be too chuffed about getting a christmas present that'd taken up half their fridge for two months.
Dunno' if you want it in the fridge, tbh.
Store it somewhere cool and dry.
Alright, will do. On top of the fridge in the basement sounds like a good place. (Plus I will remember where I put it :P)
Fridges let off heat other than the inside.:huh:Quote:

Hence your thesis will be sent to the admin where you will be notified of your court martial for salivating plagriarism.
Don't think that be a problem on top, might be if he kept the chocolate behind the fridge at the bottom.Quote:

I'm sure you'll be fine
I'm not sure if he has a survival pack, i think that's why he was going for the fridge option.
Yes, it will absorb the flavors and smells of the items around it. Place it in a Ziploc baggy and you'll be fine.Quote:

Where do they keep chocolates in shops? In my experience they just keep them on the shelf, or in a cool dry place awaiting to go on the shelves.
Depends on the type of chocolate, but the real classy kinds need to be stored in an air-tight container in the fridge. ;)
:shuriken:
THIS IS SO COMPLICATED.
Okay..ive decieded on the closet. Its nice and cool in there because it has no heat duct. Any objections?
put it in the fridge duh>>>>>>>
I'd say
Cool
Dry
Dark?
(ok... so maybe I'm thinking of potatoes...)
Also, I think it's better if its wrapped as airtight as possible so it doesn't dry out and the edges get crumbly, but instead maintains moist chocolatey goodness. ;)
Keep it in your pocket...
Oh crap, I think a kitten just died. :(Quote:
