Our whole family loves enjoying chit chats,and we've found the best way to have them is to carefully nibble of the 2 ends then dip one end into your hot chocolate drink and suck on it like a straw . Once the drink start coming through take it out of the cup and quickly pop it in your mouth,it'll melt in your mouth.This is by far the best way to enjoy chit chats.try it you'll love it!!!!
