    1. Hi Brian! The keto corn syrup can be stored in a glass jar or other airtight container in the refrigerator for several days, if not a couple of weeks.

  1. This is great!, I use to have corn syrup all the time when I was little, until I found out how really bad it was for your health.

  2. Do you think this recipe would work for caramel corn? I’d rather not use the high fructose corn syrup.
