How to keep chocolate from melting when bringing it for a flight? [duplicate]

I'm thinking of bringing chocolate for my friends in my flight a month from now.

Should I keep it with the check in baggage? Or with my carry on?

Assume that weight isn't an issue - all I need to ensure is to keep it from melting.

Best Answer

I would put it in checked baggage, as the cargo area is usually colder than the passenger compartment.

A lot of people recommend freezing your chocolate just before your flight and sealing them well in Ziplocs and even freezer bags. That way, they won't melt as quickly or won't be exposed to so much heat.
