✅ Care & Storage Tips:

1. Storage Container:
Keep in a dry, airtight container to prevent moisture absorption and clumping.

2. Avoid Humidity:
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and dampness.

3. Moisture Prevention:
Always use dry spoons to scoop.
Exposure to water or steam can lead to fungal growth or hard lumps.

4. Shelf Life:
Good for 6–12 months if stored properly.
Check for unusual smell, color change, or pests as signs of spoilage.

5. Insect Protection:
You can keep a few dried neem leaves or bay leaves inside the container to deter ants or bugs.

6. Avoid Refrigeration:
Not required; cool room temperature is sufficient.
Refrigeration may cause the sugar to harden.
