If you have a Food Saver with the jar sealer attachments you can place the cereal in a kerr mason jar and use the jar sealer attachment. It will pull ALL the air out and store for years. You can do this with almost any pantry item. Just be careful with powder items. Place them in a bag. The powder could clog up the jar sealer attachment. You can do this with candy bars, too. Cookies, crackers, chocolate chips, cake mixes, brownie mixes..........Just poke a whole in the wrapper and seal.

suwheat said she has kept cereal for years, but I have had an issue with bugs in my long term cereal storage... is there a trick for preventing this?

From someone who has done it, we are still eating Corn Flakes and Rice Krispies from 2005 and they are just fine -- taste just the same to us. Also, I store my marshmallows in an airtight bucket and that "helps" but still not a long-term storage item. Love to know that I can use the corn syrup.

Back to the cereal -- we store a year's supply of cereal (at least) as a comfort food for hubby and kids (I don't care for it that often) and we store them for several years as we rotate them (just can't pass them up when they go on sale for 98 cents or so)..... so, cereal lasts a LONG time as long as it is unopened and in a cool, dark place --

Most of my cereals come with a best before date on the label. If there are nuts in it, I try to use them by the date since the nuts go rancid. If not then they're fine for another couple months. But they're not "long" term food storage, they fit better into 3 month storage that should be rotated regularly.

I have a very similiar recipe but you use popcorn instead of cereal. VERY food storage friendly that way!

Hi,
I was wondering, how much rice krispies/ corn flakes do you store, and how much? What would be the shelf life on it? 3months, 1 year?

I would love to digitally scrapbook this recipe to put into my recipe box I just wish I had a photo of it as a finished product. My camera is having 'issues' so I can't get a photo of it. Are any of you making it soon and could take a good close up photo for me? If you do you can email me at soyprincesa2athotmaildotcom

yay. I got this recipe from a girl in Toronto, who took piano from me. Her name was Heather Whyte. A real CANADIAN recipe. Be careful not to scorch the moist ingredients as you melt them in the pot!

For one of the posters...Marshmallows can be stored in the freezer and pulled out and used just as normal.

Made this today for our FHE / Sunday treats. Thanks so much. Very delicious. I added a little semi sweet chocolate and it makes it so rich. I like it fine without chocolate too.

Good morning,

I'd just like you to know that a non-Mormon prepper very much appreciates your website and great ideas.

If you add melted milk chocolate on top, it takes this recipe from "best" to "bestest"!!! :-)

Great idea. I love food storage ideas. I have a very similar recipe with peanut butter and then melted chocolate and butterscotch chips on top. Thanks for the recipe.

As I saw this I thought "my marshmellows just don't store well" and I'm happy to see this uses karo syrup instead.
Thanks!
