Storage Instructions
Refrigerator: While this dip is definitely best enjoyed fresh, you can keep any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just be sure to cover the cups tightly with plastic wrap or pop them into an airtight container.
Freezer: Freezing isn’t the best option for these dip cups—the layers don’t hold up well after thawing, so it’s best to enjoy them while they’re fresh!
