These treats can be stored in the freezer for up to a month. Just make sure they are sealed properly to maintain freshness.

Can I customize the sweetness level?
Absolutely! You can adjust the amount of honey or omit it entirely if you prefer a stronger coffee flavor. Feel free to experiment with different sweeteners like maple syrup or agave nectar as well.
