Default Chocolate storage under vacuum

> I'll break them up by there scoring marks and wrap them in plastic
food wrap I get at Costco. Then I wrap them with Heavy Foil. I then
put them in as Heavy a pastic ziplock bag as I can get. And proceed to
suck the air out of the bag with a straw keeping the bag closed up
too were the straw is inserted, my fingers up against the straw so as
I withdraw, sucking all the time, so i can close the bag without
hardly any lose of vacuum. I then store them in the Freezer. And there
they stay for many many months. I have found some that was buried
under other stuff, for probably a couple of years. Looking and tasting
like new.
So I'm good with that.
Merry Christmas

Yeah ,......that is the right thing to do.( although somewhat
elaborate) if you want to store chocs for a very long time....and
there is less likelihood of flavor and taste degradation.
