In the video, you see a woman trying to melt the chocolate by putting it in the microwave and leaving it for a while, but when she pulls it out, the chocolate is unharmed.
The woman was not the only one to try melt a Flake, and a YouTuber decided to get in on the action and try different melting methods.
He started first by using a microwave and got the same result, and even when he used a frying pan, the Flake held strong.
