    Cadbury flakes will not melt in the microwave or a hot frying pan. According to the missus. And apparently it's true according to reports.
    Still don't believe it. I'll make an attempt first chance I get.

    "Although Flake is made from milk chocolate, the manufacturing process gives it a different arrangement of fat and cocoa solids, so the melting fat isn’t able to lubricate the cocoa particles to the point where they can flow. In a bain marie, a Flake will never melt. In the microwave, it eventually just burns."

    It's true!

    Of course they melt. You just need to put them in something hotter...

    Is that a flake in your pocket, or are you just pleased to see me?
