FOOD STORAGE — HOW LONG CAN YOU KEEP...

• Store in cool, dry area.
• Storage time shown is for normal room temperatures — dark chocolate will keep for several years if it is constantly stored between 60°F - 65°F.
• Refrigeration is only recommended in very hot, humid environments, as it will affect texture and appearance.
• When exposed to overly warm or humid temperatures, chocolate may develop a white film — this affects appearance only; the chocolate will still be safe to eat.
