How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any unopened Devil Dogs in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, it is best to consume the remaining cakes within a few days. If you have a larger quantity, you can also refrigerate them to extend their shelf life, which will also firm up the creme filling.
