18 ° C in its original packaging

当社のチョコレートメーカーは、製品に人工安定剤や保存料を一切使用していないことを誇りに思っており、そのため、他の高級チョコレートと比べて、その製品はより温度に敏感になっています。

最適な味わいを確保するには、温度が 16 °C から 18 °C の間で、涼しく乾燥した場所にチョコレートを保管することをお勧めします。チョコレートは湿気の増加により砂糖が結晶化し、食感や風味が変化する可能性があるため、冷蔵保存はご遠慮ください。

逆に、過度に高温で保管するとカカオバターが分離し、チョコレートの表面に白い膜が形成されることがあります。このカカオバターの損失により、チョコレートが乾燥し、その結果、風味が変化する可能性があります。細心の注意を払って保管することで、当社のおいしいチョコレートの完全性を保つことができます。
