How to store chocolate
Got loads of chocolate? Simply wrap it air-tight and store in the pantry, at room temperature. Because of the cocoa butter content, chocolate will pick up off-flavors from the fridge or freezer.
Blooming (the discoloration of chocolate) may look frightening, but it doesn’t affect flavor or melting capability.
