I've been inundated with adverts for fresh chocolates. Not something I've ever thought of. Apparently, they last up to a month but have to be kept in the fridge.
Anyone had any experience of fresh chocolate?

How come you get that and I get endless adverts for Wype?
It sounds a wonderful idea, but I haven’t tried them yet.

There used to be a chocolate counter in a department store in town, gone now. They tasted as delicious as they looked, a truly luxurious gift. You chose individual flavours they boxed them.

Unlike Thorntons who went the way of many premium quality goods now-down hill😕

As if chocolate would last a month in my house...

The only good chocolate now are the very expensive ones, so I rarely buy any.
The usual makes from the supermarket are horrible.Anyone had a box of Roses recently? Shudder.Stuffed with sugar and palm oil by the taste.

Most of the chocolates you buy in specialist chocolate shops are fresh and have a shelf life.

No preservatives. Often made with organic products and no palm oil.

My only thought is that making sure I ate them within a month wouldn’t be hard for me to manage! hmm
