Fridge - bars of chocolate
Room- cream egg otherwise the inside isn't melty enough
Freezer - snickers, bounties, Mars Bars. Try them. Way better than their official ice cream versions.
Now I want chocolate. Thanks for nothing.

Inspired by this thread any excuse I have just bought this.
It doesn't snap at all so it's going in the fridge.
I will report back. GrinChocolate

Good work, Baroness.

TobleroneBoo · 13/05/2016 17:51

If it was meant to be chilled, shops would store it in a fridge

DoinItFine · 13/05/2016 17:52

Shops store butter in the fridge, and that's not meant to be chilled.

Ihatechoosingnames · 13/05/2016 17:52

Fridge cold! My dad puts it in the freezer sometimes. That's a bit far!

MadameCholetsDirtySecret · 13/05/2016 17:53

No no and thrice no OP. Chocolate should only be eaten at room temp.

PolaDeVeboise · 13/05/2016 18:00

I love a 'crunchy' Giant Milk or White Choc Button from the freezer but, other than that, room temp all the way.

PotatosMum · 13/05/2016 18:09

YABU chocolate from the fridge is tasteless and hard. Room temperature chocolate is silky melt in the mouth chocolatey goodness. SmileChocolate

teafortoads · 13/05/2016 18:13

Hell no! Chocolate should be eaten whenever, wherever in whatever state it appears (unless it is a Mars Bar then it should be frozen in the freezer).

DoinItFine · 13/05/2016 18:53

First fence sitter on the thread, teafor.

Pick a side. You'really either with us or agin us.

Fridge chocolate forever! ❄

ladyjadey · 13/05/2016 19:01

Oh, you utter heathen!!!!!! This is totally unacceptable. My DP hides his in the fridge because he knows I am totally grossed out by his cold, nasty, horrible, spoiled chocolate. You and your kind repel me Grin

ShelaghTurner · 13/05/2016 19:04

Galaxy from the fridge. Place square in mouth then fill mouth with hot tea and swish. Lovely.

Marmalade85 · 13/05/2016 19:08

Reece's peanut butter cups in the freezer but everything else warm and melty.

iminshock · 13/05/2016 19:19

I agree. Fridge all the way.

tattyteddy · 13/05/2016 19:25

I love chocolate from the fridge, don't enjoy it as much when it's room temp!

ArtOfKnit · 13/05/2016 19:37

No to chocolate in the fridge. In an ideal world it is dunked in a cup of tea before eating

AmserGwin · 13/05/2016 19:39

YANBU mine goes in the fridge, can't stand warm melting chocolate, and don't get me started on chocolate fountains - why??

IHaveBrilloHair · 13/05/2016 19:42

Well it just depends, different times call for different temperatures of chocolate.

sweetkitty · 13/05/2016 19:43

Totally agree fridge only

Lucy1308 · 13/05/2016 19:53

If it's excellent quality chocolate- Blanxart 71% Filipinas for example then do NOT refrigerate that mother!! It will kill it!!

However I do rather enjoy dairy milk straight out of the fridge when I'm too poor to afford the good stuff!! Also like a mars bar straight from the fridge 🙈

Lweji · 13/05/2016 19:56

YABU. Chocolate is good in any shape.

YABVVVU to think everyone should like things as you do.

Also, if you only like chocolate from the fridge, you don't actually like chocolate.

pilates · 13/05/2016 19:57

YABU - room temperature for me

oldlaundbooth · 13/05/2016 19:57

Ew, warm chocolate.

Claggy is the word that springs to mind.
