Refrigeration: Due to the perishable nature of the mascarpone frosting, store any leftover Tiramisu Cupcakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be stored for up to 3-4 days, although they are best enjoyed within the first 2 days for optimal freshness.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: When storing Tiramisu Cupcakes in the refrigerator, be sure to place them away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Exposure to warmth can cause the frosting to soften and the cupcakes to become soggy.
Individual Wrapping: To prevent the cupcakes from drying out or absorbing odors from other foods in the refrigerator, consider wrapping each cupcake individually in plastic wrap or placing them in separate compartments of a storage container.
Freezing Instructions: While it’s best to enjoy Tiramisu Cupcakes fresh, you can freeze them for longer-term storage. Wrap each cupcake tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container or resealable bag. They can be frozen for up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
Frosting Refresh: If the mascarpone frosting becomes slightly soft after refrigeration, you can gently whip it with a hand mixer for a few seconds to restore its consistency before serving. Avoid overmixing, as this can cause the frosting to become too runny.
