Leave the cranberries in the plastic bag in which you purchased them and put them in the freezer. Until cranberries are cooked, they are hard as rocks! They will not get soggy from being in the freezer. I always buy several bags when they go on sale for Thanksgiving and put them in the freezer. Then, throughout the year, I use them uncooked in the bottom of crystal vases to anchor the stems of white flowers. Buy away this Thanksgiving!

Get new cranberries next year!

dry them

Freeze them, after you thaw them out they will be good as new. I have cranberries in my freezer right now...they have been in there since last Thanksgiving and they are fine.

the only way is to freeze them to keep them that long. but as you don't want to do that the only way is to get fresh cranberries next year! why do you want to keep these that long?

Cranberries don't get soggy and leak after freezing them. I buy several bags each fall and freeze them, I've never had mine go soggy.

Youn can keep cranberries for a year by freezing them.

buy new ones!

get it the day before ur wedding day so that u dont have problem storing them, silly.

you better call ocean spray on this one. sorry
