How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness and prevent the chocolate from melting or becoming chalky, store the remaining almonds in a cool, dry place. An airtight container is ideal. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures. If the environment is particularly warm, refrigeration is an option, but allow them to come to room temperature before consuming for the best texture.
