How long does homemade hard candy stay good?

[MashaBear]

Once I've made some delicious hard candy, how long will it stay fresh? I'd hate for it to go bad too quickly, especially after all the effort. What are the best ways to store it and keep it from getting sticky or losing flavor? Any storage tips to keep it longer?

Hard candy can last for weeks or even months if stored properly! To keep it fresh, make sure to store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Avoid humidity as it can make the candy sticky. You can also wrap each piece individually in wax paper to keep them from sticking together.

I think homemade hard candy can last about 2-3 weeks if stored in an airtight container. Though, humidity can mess it up faster!
