How to keep the rest
To maintain their freshness and texture, store any remaining peanut butter shapes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are kept in their original, sealed packaging or an airtight container to prevent them from drying out or absorbing unwanted odors. Avoid storing them in warm environments, as this can cause the chocolate to melt.
