Here are some instructions for storing cherries to maximise their lifespan -- assuming you can stop yourself from eating them all as soon as you get them home!

• Cherries are picked ripe and sweet from the tree.
• Keep cherries cool to keep them fresh for longer -- so put that bowl full of cherries in the fridge!
• Store dry and loosely packed in a covered container in the fridge until needed (0C - 4C is great)
• Leave the stems on - they help keep the cherries fresh.
• Only rinse cherries when you are ready to eat them as they can absorb the water and soften.
