My tips and tricks
Do you know how to break a bar of chocolate quickly? Sometimes the ingenious solution turns out to be extremely simple :) If your chocolate is in a cardboard box, take it out, but do not remove the foil. If it is in paper or plastic packaging, do not unpack it. Simply roll the chocolate bar over a convex surface, e.g. a rolling pin or even the edge of a tabletop. You need to roll the bar 2 times: up and down, so that the chocolate is divided not only into strips, but also into separate cells.
