Return To Chocolate FAQ Archive   How should I store chocolate? Answered By Annecy Carlyle Wrap your chocolate with foil and then with plastic wrap. Keep the chocolate at a temperature around 60-72°F. The pantry or dark cabinet is an ideal place for storing your chocolate. It can have a shelf life for about a year if properly stored. An airtight container should be used because the flavors from other foods are easily picked up by chocolate. Chocolate is very sensitive, a sudden change of temperature is its number one enemy. Keeping it in the refrigerator or freezer is not a good idea, but in case you do, take it out and thaw it. Let it stand in room temperature before using it in your recipe. keywords: Chocolate | Chocolates | Cocoa | Truffles | Candy | Gifts | Storage About Chocolate
