For how long can caramel popcorn be stored?

If stored properly, caramel popcorn can last for up to 2 weeks. To ensure its freshness, it is important to store the popcorn in an airtight container. This will help to keep it crunchy and prevent the caramel from becoming sticky or stale. You can also store the popcorn in the refrigerator, which will help to preserve its freshness for a longer period of time. However, it’s best to enjoy your caramel popcorn within the first week for the best flavor and texture. If you notice any signs of spoilage, such as a noticeable change in taste, smell, or appearance, it’s best to discard the popcorn to avoid any potential food-borne illnesses.
