To avoid that problem, simply add the custom options to your modules config.xml, like this:

<global>
    <sales>
        <quote>
            <item>
                <product_attributes>
                    <custom_product_attribute1/>
                    <custom_product_attribute2/>
                </product_attributes>
            </item>
        </quote>
    </sales>
</global>
