How to keep the rest
To maintain their quality, store any remaining cinnamon balls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are kept in their original wrappers or an airtight container to preserve freshness and prevent the chocolate from absorbing other odors. Avoid refrigeration, as this can affect the texture of the chocolate shell.
