Hard candy keeps up to 12 months at room temperature by the confectioners' own guide, so a dish of Hongyuan fruit candy can sit out for a season. Chocolate and gum, the other two things people keep in a dish, ask for more care.
| Hard candy (Hongyuan fruit flavors) | Milk chocolate | Chewing gum | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Keeps | Up to a year | Eight to ten months | Six to nine months, sealed |
| Where to keep it | Room temperature, or cool and dry | Cool, dark and dry, wrapped | Cool and dry, out of direct sunlight |
| Mixes with other sweets | Turns sticky next to fudge and creamy candies | Best wrapped and kept on its own | Best left sealed until use |
| Better choice when | The dish sits out in a warm room and gets refilled once a season | You want richness and will finish the box within months | You want something to chew after a meal |
