A handy guide to just how far past Halloween you can enjoy the fruits of all that trick-or-treating labor
But in the unlikely event that seasonal candy lingers in the house beyond November, it’s important to know when said sweets are past their prime. Here’s a handy guide to just how far past Halloween you can enjoy the fruits of all that trick-or-treating labor.A candy’s shelf life is directly influenced by its ingredients. “For most sugar-based confections, losing moisture or drying out is the main reason,” says Richard W. Hartel, a professor of food engineering at the University of Wisconsin.
Packaging can help sugar-based candies retain their shelf life. Such candies are often wrapped in plastic to prevent moisture loss, but once you open the package and expose the candies to air, they can dry out within days or weeks. Over time, even if protected from light and warmth, chocolate might absorb moisture and consequently won’t have the same viscosity when melted, and might feel gritty on the tongue.There are several factors that can instigate candy spoilage, including moisture, light, heat, and a candy’s fat content, according tofrom Kansas State University. Overall, general recommendations suggest the pantry is the best place to store sweets, away from light and moisture.
