Most chocolatiers will tell you “Never freeze chocolate!!”

Of course, if you are in a warm climate and want to keep it for very long, that will work, but not well.

If you are in a temperate or cool climate, the best thing to do is like double or triple wrap it with aluminum foil and store in a cool, dark, not overly damp place.

A place where the critters won’t get to it, that is!

In Arizona, you won’t find many places that fit that description...LOL

Here the oil/fat in the chocolate goes rancid, quickly if not in the refrig or freezer.

It is good that you knew how to store it in the cool country,
thank you for sharing.

For me critters includes a friends dog, he found my stash and ate it, while we were looking at the greenhouse.

Did not make him sick, but it sure made me sad, as it was a fancy gift package that had been sent to me.
