How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any remaining caramel corn in an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid exposing it to excessive heat or moisture, as this can cause the caramel to melt or the popcorn to become stale. Proper storage will help preserve its texture and flavor for future enjoyment.
