How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any remaining chocolate-covered berries in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the packaging is sealed tightly to prevent moisture from affecting the chocolate's texture and to keep the berries from drying out. Proper storage will help preserve their enjoyable taste and consistency.
