Moisture Protection: Store your chocolate in a dry place, with a humidity level around 65%. Avoid placing it near walls or the floor, as these areas can be more humid.
Away from Odors: Chocolate tends to absorb odors, so keep it away from strong-smelling foods or substances.
Avoid Direct Light: Protect your chocolate from light to prevent any alteration of its taste.

What is chocolate bloom?
Blooming, or "fat bloom," is a natural phenomenon that appears as white deposits on the surface of chocolate. It results from the recrystallization of cocoa butter and does not indicate poor quality or lack of freshness.
Rest assured, the chocolate is still safe to consume and retains its flavor. To prevent blooming, store it in a cool, dry place away from light.
