Tips for storing these Broomstick snacks:

These Halloween themed snacks are very easy to make and there is no cooking or baking required but these little goodies cannot hold their freshness for lengthy time. As we are using fresh ingredients like Chives, you must not keep them out of the fridge for a long period. Moreover, Cheese if left outside for long hours can get hardened from outside. If you would like to make them ahead of time make sure they are sealed with cling film or other wrapper and refrigerated before party.
