For those of you who are chocolate lovers, this week's poll is seeking your votes on how you like your confectionary treat... or more specifically, what temperature?

Does it taste better a little on the chilled side, or do you prefer a more melty experience with a room temperature choccie? Fridge or cupboard?

Or is there another way you prefer? (Let us know in the comments!)

    Good chocolate is designed to melt in your mouth, to get the taste. Source: swiss chocolate factory tour guide

    Definitely room temperature so it melts as you eat it and the flavour comes out. Chocolate from the fridge is completely tasteless.

    Depends on whether it is dark or milk chocolate - I enjoy a chilled dark (75/85%)  and a room temperature milk chocolate. Though I rarely eat milk chocolate.

    The dark chocolate I eat stays hard and melts in the mouth.
    One is made locally with bars from single cacao estates which gives each a different flavour. Like wine.... Yup, I m a chocolate connoisseur or snob 😉
    Milk chocolate Swiss or Polish.
    Fun though.

    I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!

    Depends on the chocolate. Better quality stuff I keep room temperature. Cadbury Dairy Milk is in the fridge and then left to warm slightly before eating.
