How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any remaining candy bars in their original wrappers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the packaging is sealed tightly to prevent the chocolate from drying out or absorbing other odors. Avoid refrigeration, as this can cause the chocolate to bloom and develop a white, chalky appearance.
