Also, if there's any moisture on the bottom layer (from being in the fridge) you can have issues with separation. <BR/><BR/>Some people prefer to break the bark up rather than cut it to avoid the layers from splitting apart. It seems to happen less when you break them.Crunchy Chickenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10612320939936593420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-69063813465697103062008-12-16T16:52:00.000-08:002008-12-16T16:52:00.000-08:00Do you ever have a problem with the white chocolate and chocolate separating when you cut it?
