How long can you keep cupcakes in sealed container?

It depends on how you store them! Here's a breakdown:

Room Temperature:

* Frosted cupcakes: 1-2 days

* Unfrosted cupcakes: 3-4 days

Refrigerator:

* Frosted cupcakes: 3-4 days

* Unfrosted cupcakes: Up to 5 days

Freezer:

* Frosted cupcakes: 2-3 months

* Unfrosted cupcakes: 2-3 months

Key Tips:

* Sealed container: Use an airtight container to prevent drying out and absorb flavors.

* Separate layers: If stacking cupcakes, place parchment paper between each layer to prevent frosting from sticking.

* Freezing: Wrap individual cupcakes in plastic wrap or foil before placing them in a freezer-safe bag.

* Thaw in the refrigerator: For the best results, thaw frozen cupcakes in the refrigerator overnight.

Important note: While these are general guidelines, the freshness of your cupcakes can vary based on ingredients used and storage conditions. Always check for signs of spoilage like mold, discoloration, or an off smell.
