How to keep the rest
To keep the rest of the lemon drops fresh, store them in their original packaging in a cool, dry place. Ensure the wrappers are sealed tightly to prevent moisture from affecting the candy. Avoid direct sunlight and high humidity. Properly stored, they will maintain their texture and flavor for an extended period.
