Expert Tips for the Best Cherry Almond Easter Bark

• Use High-Quality Chocolate – The better the chocolate, the smoother and creamier your bark will be.
• Don’t Overheat the Chocolate – Melt slowly in short intervals to prevent seizing.
• Swirling Technique – Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the chocolates for a beautiful marble pattern.
• Let It Fully Set – For best results, allow the bark to set at room temperature before refrigerating to avoid condensation.
• Get Creative! – Experiment with dark chocolate, coconut flakes, or even crushed pistachios for a fun twist.
