Jelly Kisses

As the original recipe advises, these should be made the day before serving. The unfilled meringue shells can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Fill them with jelly no more than 4-6 hours before serving to prevent the shells from becoming soggy.

Store filled meringue kisses in a single layer in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 24 hours. Do not refrigerate, as condensation will make the meringues weep and become sticky. Unfilled shells can be stored in an airtight container with silica gel packets for up to 2 weeks in a cool, dry place.
