How to keep the rest
To maintain their freshness and prevent the chocolate from blooming, store these cherries in a cool, dry place. Avoid direct sunlight and humidity.

If the temperature is warm, refrigeration may be considered, but allow them to come to room temperature before serving for optimal flavor and texture.
