Chocolate and caramel are made for each other. Don’t you think so? I mean, I really can’t resist a chocolate and caramel combo. The caramel layer is a bit soft and gooey, and we found we liked them best from the freezer. You will definitely want to freeze some so you don’t eat the whole batch.
Note: You won’t need a candy thermometer for this recipe to measure the temperature of the caramel.
Divine Chocolate is co-owned by the 85,000 farmer members of Kuapa Kokoo, the cooperative in Ghana that supplies the cocoa for each bar of Divine. As owners, they get a share in the profits, a say in the company, and a voice in the global marketplace.
Divine is a Fairtrade company and their baking bars are vegan. Divine Chocolate is the only Fairtrade chocolate company in the world that is owned by cocoa farmers.

TIPS and TRICKS HOW To Store Chocolate:
When storing chocolate, there are a few important details to keep in mind. Follow the steps below for seriously good chocolate:
-
Store chocolate at a temperature of around 65 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Chocolate, just like us, prefers to be kept in room temperature conditions that are not too hot or too cold.
-
Store chocolate in cool, dark places. This could be in cabinets in your kitchen, a pantry, or other spaces with no humidity and no direct sunlight.
-
Chocolate doesn’t like to sit around unprotected. If you open a chocolate bar and don’t eat it all, but sure to wrap it back up in airtight wrapping until you eat the rest of it. The chocolate should remain fresh for many days after it is opened when you follow the above suggestions.
