Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How long do these stirrers last?

A: These stirrers will keep as long as the chocolate or sweets would keep. It's best to make them closer to the date you intend to gift them to prevent 'blooming' (pale coating) of the chocolate.

Q: Can I freeze the stirrers?

A: It's not recommended to freeze the stirrers, as chocolate is sensitive to temperature changes and may develop a white covering (bloom) if stored in the freezer.

Q: What is the best chocolate to use?

A: You can use dark, milk, or white chocolate, or even a combination of these, based on your preference.

Q: Can I use candy canes instead of wooden sticks?

A: While wooden sticks work best, you can experiment with candy canes for a festive touch. However, ensure they are sturdy enough to stir into hot milk.
