Shelf life of candied flowers?

Does anyone know what the shelf life of candied whole flowers or candied flower petals are?

My method of candy-ing the petals would be to brush them with egg white, cover them with castor sugar and air-dry until hardened and completely dry. I know it will keep a few days in an air-tight container at room temp, but does anyone know its true longevity?

Else, does anyone have a better method? Thanks!

    This is the only way I know of to candy flowers, and if kept dry, should last almost forever.
