What is the shelf life of gumballs? We get these questions often and it just so happens that our bulk gumballs have a shelf life of 24+ months if stored in a cool dry place.

The best rule of thumb is to order as close as possible to when your desired candy is needed. All candy will have a shelf life of at least 1-2 months (so long as you store the candy unopened in a cool, but not refrigerated, dry place). If you are hosting an event like a wedding, birthday party, conference, we suggest ordering your candy approximately 1 month prior to the event.
