Chocolate is very sensitive to temperature and humidity.

Ideal storage temperatures are between 15 and 17 °C (59 to 63 °F), with a relative humidity of less than 50%.

Chocolate is generally stored away from other foods as it can absorb different aromas.

Ideally, chocolates are packed or wrapped, and placed in proper storage with the correct humidity and temperature. Additionally, chocolate is frequently stored in a dark place or protected from light by wrapping paper.
