      Warnings

      • Make sure you use chocolate that was not made in a place that also processes peanuts. Most people only think about actual ingredients in the item, but if it is manufactured on shared equipment, you could still endanger people with allergies. Most packages will mention whether the chocolate was manufactured in a facility that processes nuts and other allergens.
