Can candy be stored in the refrigerator?

Storing candy in the refrigerator is not a good choice. Many people like to keep candy in the fridge, but while candy is sensitive to high temperatures, storing it for a long time in the fridge can cause it to absorb flavors from other foods, altering its taste and not being a long-term solution. Here are two methods for storing candy that you can try.

Candy storage methods

Storage in a tin box

Regular candies can be stored in a tin box for no more than six months, while candies with higher fat and protein content can also be kept in a tin box for no more than three months. If there are signs of moisture or spoilage, they must be discarded.

Low-temperature storage in glass jars

Candy is sensitive to heat and moisture; it can be placed in glass jars and stored in a cool, dry place indoors.

Tip: Candy should not be placed in direct sunlight or stored alongside foods with high moisture content. Whether using a tin box or glass storage, this needs to be taken into account.

Candy shelf life

The shelf life of candy is generally six months, which may shorten by one to two months during summer.

During summer and autumn when the average temperature exceeds 30°C and humidity is high, various types of gel candies have a shelf life of no more than 12 months, while hard candies also have a shelf life of no more than 12 months. The shelf life of pressed/polished candies is mainly affected by humidity; if well-sealed, their shelf life can reach 18-24 months.
