Extending Shelf Life of Sweets: Case Study Using Oxygen Absorbers raditional sweets, especially Indian confections such as laddus, kajukatli, and barfi, are a vital part of cultural celebrations and your day to day life. Nevertheless, their high moisture content, dairy base, and use of natural ingredients make them extremely inclined to spoilage from microbial growth, oxidation, and staleness. This smaller shelf life, often just a few days at ambient temperatures, presents a significant challenge for sweet shops and manufacturers, predominantly those who wish to expand their reach from a long-distance shipping or export. This case study explores a modern food-safe packaging for sweets using oxygen absorbers.
