A little care helps preserve your candy’s flavor and texture. Always follow the storage instructions and dates on the individual package.

How should I store different types of candy?

Chocolate: Keep in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, heat and strong odors. Follow the maker’s guidance on refrigeration.

Gummies and chewy candy: Keep tightly sealed in a cool, dry place to help prevent sticking or drying out.

Hard candy and lollipops: Keep wrappers intact or use an airtight container. Moisture can make them sticky.

Filled, specialty and imported candy: Storage needs vary, so check the label rather than assuming the same rules apply to every treat.

What about heat and humidity?

Avoid hot cars, sunny windows and damp storage areas. Heat can soften or melt candy, while humidity can affect its texture. Bring deliveries indoors promptly and store them according to the packaging.

Does opening the package change how I store it?

Keep unopened candy in its original sealed packaging. After opening, reseal tightly or use a clean, dry, airtight container. Keep the original label and date, and follow any “use within” instructions.

How long will my candy last?

There is no single shelf life for every candy. Ingredients, packaging and storage conditions all matter. Use the manufacturer’s date and any after-opening instructions rather than a general timeline.

What does a best-before date mean?

A best-before date is a guide to quality, not a guarantee of safety. Do not use the date alone to decide whether a product is suitable to eat. Follow the label’s instructions. Imported products may use different date formats; ask us if a date is unclear.

How can I request ingredients or allergen details?

Use our Contact form with the exact product name, flavor and size, plus the ingredient or allergen question you want checked. If you already have the candy, include its batch code or best-before date and any label details.

Ask for the available manufacturer or importer ingredient list, allergen statement and any “may contain” information. Recipes and labels can vary by market or batch, so check the packaging on the item you receive. Missing information should not be treated as confirmation that an allergen is absent; we cannot guarantee allergen-free products.
