In reply to Melinda. I've made these years ago and my family loved them. To answer your question it takes about 2 weeks in the fridge, give or take, for the fondant to turn to liquid. The first time I made these I was just a girl. I told all my siblings to stay out of them. 2 weeks later I pulled the container out of the fridge just to find a few left. My sister had been sneaking them. We still laugh about that. My sister swears to this day they are better while the fondant is still dough.

In reply to Meghan L. Hi Meghan, I would be hesitant about freezing for a couple of weeks just for those reasons.

Can these be frozen for a few weeks or will it affect the texture or chocolate?

In reply to Sue. Sue, I would refrigerate them if you make them up quite a while before serving, but they should be fine left out while serving. Aren't these beautiful?

I make these every year as well, but add 1/3 cup karo syrup and a tsp of vanilla or almond extract to the fondant mixture. It makes for a gooeyer (gooeier-sp? ha!) coating. serving at room temperature will get you closer to that cherry cordial goo, and ALWAYS use a high quality chocolate to avoid blooming. microwaving can cause this too as chocolate prefers to be tempered slowly. (as i’m more a fan of dark chocolate than white myself.) you can also add a complimentary liqueur to the fondant (for the adults). yum! now i’m ready for some! 😉

sorry…t.m.i. lol

I make chocolate covered cherries for my Sons who loves choc. covered cherries. I have a daughter who hates Chocolate (yes crazy girl), I never thought to just dip these in white chocolate, I change everything else, so why not these. I like how you left the stems on, very cute. I’ll have to try and make them for her this year and see what she thinks.

In reply to Melinda. Hi Melinda! I don't know exactly about how long the fondant takes. Let me ask the original author and see what she says! But I would keep these in the refrigerator unless while serving.

How long does it take the fondant to turn to liquid? Do you store them in or out of the fridge? Can’t wait to try them!

In reply to Nick. The dough is a fondant which makes the gooey center like a chocolate covered cherry. Hope that helps!
