Where do I buy the shells?

Can you make the mixture and keep it refrigerated for a week before filling the cups?
Lauren says
Maybe not a week, but definitely 3-4 days would be fine.

These look absolutely amazing, I can’t wait to make them! (And after the amazing success of your Blueberry Almond Scones, I’m pretty sure my audience will appreciate them too!)

Seriously, these are amazing. I had to make a second batch because my family ate them all before I even put the candy canes on.

Have you tried making these ahead of time and freezing them and just adding the whipped cream when ready to serve?
Jenny says
I’d like to make these for a party soon but I don’t have a microwave. How would I do stove top?
