Fridge or Cupboard? Where to keep your Christmas ingredients
We take a look at where best to store your edible Christmas goodies
We all know where Christmas food really belongs – our bellies! But before we can eat them, it can be difficult to know where to keep them in the kitchen. Chocolate, cakes, even the classic ketchup, these all need to find a home before the dining table and we don’t want any mouldy mistakes dampening the merriest time of the year!
We enlisted the help of home economist Becky Wilkson to settle once and for all where some of the most common Christmas foods should be kept.
If you're cooking Christmas dinner this year, use our food calculator to work out how much of each essential ingredient you'll need to buy, including veg, turkey and mince pies!
