What is the proper way to store chocolate?

Chocolate is best stored at cool room temperatures (60-70°F), well wrapped to keep moisture out, and away from highly scented foods or aromatic products that might be absorbed by the chocolate. Chocolate is a stable product that does not require refrigeration. Ideally, it should not be refrigerated as this will change the appearance of the chocolate. Specifically, the condensation that forms when it is taken from the refrigerator will cause sugar bloom on the chocolate’s surface.

What is “bloom” on chocolate, and is it still possible to use the chocolate?

“Bloom” is cocoa butter from within the chocolate that rises to the surface when the chocolate is exposed to warm temperatures and then cooled. While unappetizing to look at, it is completely safe to eat.

What are your sourcing practices?

“Through our direct relationships with cocoa growers all our beans are fairly traded and fully traceable to farms committed to sustainable and fair farming practices”.
