Why is freshness so important in chocolate?
Natural chocolate is a perishable product. At Chuao Chocolatier, our products contain no artificial preservatives as we choose to create only handmade, natural confections. As anyone who has tried to melt chocolate knows, it melts easily, but is fickle about temperature. We take extra care when shipping our chocolate to ensure that it maintains its freshness and integrity. To prevent melting or discoloration, all Chuao Chocolatier creations should be kept cool and stored in appropriate conditions. Should you decide to refrigerate, please place in a re-sealable type bag or container and let it warm up to room temperature prior to opening. A product that is made with care should be handled with care. Enjoy!
