How to store flapjacks at home

Our Blackfriars flapjacks are all individually wrapped and are stuiable for ambient conditions with a great long life. Once opened, (it is hard to resist not eating the full bar), but if you decide to save it, the flapjack will keep in an air-tight container for 1 - 2 days. You can freeze the flapjacks on purchase if you want to, but if so we would recommend that it is not frozen for more than 12 months, and once thawed consumed within 1 week.
