Fresh juice in peppermint patties

[susiew]

Hi all,

I made peppermint patties using confectioner's sugar, peppermint oil, agave nectar, olive oil, and fresh lime juice.

Then coated them with dark chocolate. (Very delicious.)

Is it necessary to refrigerate these?

And if I used zest instead, would it be necessary to refrigerate?

Thanks very much!

I would not worry about it. If there is enough sugar in them and they are stiff enough to dip, they should be fine for a few weeks. I would only worry if it was a runny center, like if I had a really soft ganache in a molded chocolate.

Sounds really interesting. Would you be willing to post your formula?
