Should I freeze my chocolate? |
|
Freezing chocolate isn't necessary; however, if you're planning to keep your chocolate for a couple of months, place package in two plastic bags, close tightly and freeze. When you are ready to eat your chocolates, take out of the freezer and allow the chocolates to thaw until they reach room temperature while still in the plastic bags. Typically one box will require 5-6 hours. |

Using maltitol in production of chocolate confections is ideal because it is difficult to taste or see any difference. Maltitol is also known as Maltisorb® crystalline maltitol. |
