Does chocolate get spoiled?
I don't think it does, but if it does.. when?

If it doesn't get spoiled, does it get.. flat?

Because I bought chocolate because it was on sale (lol, I'm cheap, yeah) and I'm wondering if it'll go flat by Christmas. It's a present for someone. Oh, please tell me that it'll still be okay by Christmas.

Wow. That's a very good question. I have absolutely NO IDEA whatsoever. Well, if you think about it, we get a bunch of candy on Halloween that we don't eat right away. Does it still taste good in your opinion? If you think so, it should be ok.

Yes, chocolate does get spoiled.

Once, I had some chocolate Chinese firecracker candy left over from a Chinese New Year many many years ago...it wasn't moldy but it was pretty close to being so. It was covered in a light, tan coloured dry flaky stuff. I sorta scratched it off and nibbled a bit and it tasted weird.


But generally...chocolate lasts for more than a month. It'll last maybe 2 years.

Good question...I have no idea...The only experience I have had is when one of my ex boyfriend got me those big hershey kisses for valentines day. We were together for a while and when we broke up I still wouldn't eat the chocolate. It was "special" lol, so I had it saved for like a year, until my friend was so tired of me saving it that she "made" me eat it. And it tasted pretty darn good too :)
So I have no idea lol

doesn't it get covered in like a white-ish layer when it's stale?
