Storage Tips
Marshmallow fluff should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. An airtight container is essential to prevent it from drying out or becoming sticky. Once opened, tightly seal the jar or container after each use. It does not require refrigeration, but keeping it in a cool pantry will help maintain its texture and prevent it from becoming too soft.
