Toblerone has to be one of the most popular chocolate bars out there. Their combination of Swiss milk chocolate and nougat is as close to perfect and their triangular shape is among the most recognizable in the world. But there is one small issue with them.
Breaking off Toblerone into individual pieces is quite challenging. Either you end up with half a piece or break it off cleanly but have chocolate all over your fingers. That is, of course, if you don’t use the correct technique.

As it turns out, the triangular shape of Toblerone pieces isn’t just for looks. It was also selected because it allows an easy breaking off. This might sound insane at first, but wait until you check out the viral video made by TikToker @sidneyraz. It will all make perfect sense.
According to @sidneyraz, you should actually pinch Toblerone pieces in order to break them off. This way, you will get a perfect triangle every time without any fuss or mess. Check out the demonstration below.
