In
honor of Chocolate Mint Day next week (February 19), this week’s tip reminds
you to have all mint-flavored treats stored separately from other confections.
While
mint is refreshingly cool and goes great with chocolate, it is also an
overwhelming flavor that can seep into the flavor of your other candies and
chocolates. Therefore, it is recommended to store your mint flavoring as well
as products containing mint separate from other goods. Some candy makers make a
lot of mint chocolates and find that a completely separate “mint room” is
necessary but if that is not the case for you, storing them in sealed
containers will at least seal in the flavor.
We hope you have a Happy Valentine's Day!
