Storage Tips
Store the Strawberry Pudding Cups in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Any longer and the pudding will get runny. Make sure you cover each pudding cup with plastic wrap.
Freezing Tips
Instant pudding recipes do not freeze well. The gelatin in the pudding does not hold well to freezing and will liquify once defrosted.
Top Tip
Make sure you combine the pudding mix thoroughly with the milk.
