Storage Method
To keep your nougat bars fresh and chewy:
- Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container lined with parchment or wax paper between layers. They’ll stay fresh for up to 3 days.
- Refrigerator: Place in a sealed container for up to 1 week. Allow bars to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving so they soften slightly.
- Freezer (for longer storage): Wrap bars individually in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature before enjoying.
