Can you freeze Nigella Rocky Road? ›

Our answer

You can also freeze the bars. Wrap them tightly in a double layer of clingfilm (plastic wrap) and a layer of foil and freeze for up to 1 month. When you want to eat them, unwrap the bars and put in an airtight box then leave to thaw overnight in a cool place.

Rocky Road is best kept in the fridge but you can enjoy it at room temperature. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks or at room temperature for 1-2 weeks. It can also be frozen, just let it come up to room temperature before eating.

Is it Gluten Free? No. This product is not gluten free as it lists 2 ingredients that contain gluten and 1 ingredient that could contain gluten depending on the source.

Our original Rocky Road is still as popular as ever with sweet marshmallows, crunchy nuts and red wine jelly covered in delicious milk chocolate. Hide it somewhere if you don't want to share! Ingredients: Milk chocolate, marshmallows, red wine jelly, peanuts, almonds.

If it cracks as you cut it, it's too cold. Leave the slice out of the fridge for at least 20 minutes before cutting into squares. Why is my Mars Bar slice hard? If the slice is too hard to eat, let it soften out of the fridge for about half an hour before consuming.

In the UK, you might hear Rocky Road referred to as 'tiffin'. British tiffin tends to focus more on a medley of dried fruits nestled into the chocolate base. In contrast, American Rocky Road usually includes marshmallows and nuts.

If it smells OK to you and tastes fine then you can eat it! Make sure you store your products in a cupboard or pantry, try and keep them at a consistent temperature and make sure they are properly wrapped with foil if opened. Time past 'best before' when chocolate should still taste good!

And so Rocky Road was born. Its name was a play on words referring to the yummy chocolate chunks, but also the 'rocky road' that people had to walk during America's Great Depression. Joe and William marketed Rocky Road using the slogan 'Share a Scoop, Share a Smile', which survives to this day.

Coeliacs can eat chocolate that is labelled as gluten-free, ensuring it has no gluten ingredients and hasn't been contaminated during production. Pure chocolate – dark, milk, or white – is naturally gluten-free as it is made from cocoa beans, sugar and cocoa butter.

Only half of the tasters could taste a difference between the white and pink marshmallows and while some could not differentiate what the actual flavour difference was, most tasters picked up on floral notes.
