I store in fridge in summer. Otherwise it’s liquid

The fridge ruins the chocolate, it leaves it brittle and with white streaks. I much prefer mine at room temperature even if it's warm.

Depends on the chocolate - Galaxy or chocolate buttons - from fridge.
Toblerone - from cupboard or it goes too hard and isn't pleasant.
Dairy milk I'm on the fence about.

I love warm chocolate, chocolate from the fridge isn’t tasty enough

Not fridge if you value your teeth

The fridge at a push but ideally the freezer. I love hard ice cold chocolate.

Fridge if it's warm, otherwise cupboard

I'm not a massive fan of chocolate but if I do take the notion for it I like things like Buttons, Twirl or Flake with thinner bits of chocolate and they have to be in the fridge. I hate soft, melty chocolate and how it feels in my mouth as it melts.

Chocolate and crisps in the fridge for me.

Dannii2531 · 07/08/2024 15:19

From the freezer

RomeoRivers · 07/08/2024 15:21

Always in the fridge!

Paired with either a cold Diet Coke or a hot English Breakfast Tea.

I only put it in the fridge if it's really warm but will leave to come to room temp before i eat it, tastes better.

SatinHeart · 07/08/2024 15:25

Chocolate buttons from the fridge are lovely!

Sinderalla · 07/08/2024 15:26

Fridge fridge fridge
Or even the freezer

mitogoshi · 07/08/2024 15:27

Around 18 degrees, just like red wineGrin

Only British people put chocolate in the fridge! I had never come across this before I moved to England and I have this argument with DH all the time. It isn't meant to be eaten cold and it completely ruins the chocolate.

Whynottrythis · 07/08/2024 15:32

Absolutely room temperature. I agree that the fridge ruins it.

bloodyeffinnora · 07/08/2024 15:36

fridge or freezer, so much better

Igmum · 07/08/2024 15:36

Generally room temperature but Maltesers taste fabulous from the freezer

coxesorangepippin · 07/08/2024 15:45

Fridge

CaptainBeanThief · 07/08/2024 15:48

I have to put chocolate in the fridge as I can't swallow warm chocolate
I have swallow problems and I can't swallow warm chocolate as I feel the texture changes

Toddlerteaplease · 07/08/2024 15:50

Definitely from the fridge.

Sera1989 · 07/08/2024 15:51

I prefer my chocolate a bit bendy so room temperature (or ideally warmer in the winter)
