Notes
Don’t overheat the chocolate
Melt it slowly and gently, either over simmering water or in the microwave at low intervals. If it gets too hot, it can seize up and lose that beautiful glossy shine.

🌡️ Storage
Store your chocolate bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. If your kitchen is warm or you notice the chocolate softening, place it in the fridge to keep it firm and fresh. For gifting, wrap the bark pieces in parchment or cellophane bags and tie them with a ribbon. They will stay beautiful for several days and make such a thoughtful homemade treatNutrition
