Because of the cones, storage is a little unique:

If Serving Same Day

Fill and refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving.

If Preparing Ahead

Make the cheesecake filling
Store in an airtight container up to 3 days
DO NOT fill the cones until ready to serve
(the cones will soften)

Freezing

You can freeze the filling but not the filled cones.

Freeze cheesecake filling up to:

2 months

Thaw in the fridge overnight before using.

❓ FAQS
