    When I worked for Kmart in the layby section you couldn't layby any food items at all mate - so I'd say no

    But the offer to use my fridge still stands

    My aunty quite often buys easter eggs early and stores them. She puts them in an esky (no ice) and then keeps the esky in the coolest part of the house like in the walk in wardrobe etc. She said it keeps her chocolates perfect. Worth a try maybe?

    lol the first thing I thought when I saw this thread was don't know but why would you want to lol (preggo lady who is craving anything and everuything sweet!) The esky sounds like a great idea! I'm due on the 18th April so I need to get prepared soon incase of an early arrival and so i don't have to go shopping so heavily preg

    I was going to suggest the esky idea too.

    Chocolate changes colour ('blooms') when it goes warm (the cocoa butter separates from the cocoa solids). So when chocolate is frozen, its more likely to bloom when it is defrosted.
