I dont need this many at once. Refrigerate? Freeze? Shelf Life?

I keep mine in the box in my basement where it is cool and dry. They hold up fone

I froze half and used them 4 months later. The frozen tarts were just as tasty as when they first arrived. Just remember to put them in the fridge to bring to temperature and then bring them to room temp - don't go right from the freezer to room temp.

As they are wrapped in smaller sealed portions I just kept them in the box in a cool pantry. So far, so good and it has been over 6 months. I used them yesterday and they taste as fresh as the first small package.

The listing states that they have a one year shelf life. They are individually packaged in counts of 18, which is convenient for opening smaller amounts at a time. Mine have been stored at room temperature for about 3 months with no trouble thus far.

I kept mine in the freezer until I was ready to use them. That worked well.

I kept mine in the original package in my pantry and used them as needed. They did not get stale. I refrigerated them only if I put a filling in them. Such as lemon tarts or cherry until I was ready to serve them. Hope this helps.

I also didn't use them all at once. The box contains several packs, with each containing 18 shells. They stay pretty fresh. I just stored the rest in a cool, dry place. It's been a couple of months and the shells are still good.

I've kept my extras in our garage since May and they have kept just fine so far!

I have not tried to put them in the freezer. I am writing this to you as I sit next to the pile of used ones that need to be heated again to make them liquid, they become solid after use. That pile has been there for several weeks. Really not worth the money. I would not buy these again, they are a total pain. If after you heat them if there is even one crystal left, this can be very hard to see, they will just reheat when you take them out of the hot water and you are stuck heating them again to reset. They do not stay warm for nearly long enough to make them worth it. I would strongly urge you to skip these and go with an old fashioned water bottle. Sometimes an oldie is a goodie.

I actually don't know. I dumped all of them in a freezer zip lock and there they are. No issues as far a taste...they thew in a few minutes and then delish!

I divide it into approximate thirds: store one-third in my pantry, and the other two containers in the freezer. The one in the kitchen pantry at room temp has stayed fresh for several months with no apparent loss of quality.

I keep mine in the fridge and buy about a years worth of product at a time. Works great!

I refrigerate them in the bag they came in. Take out what you need and let them warm before use. I dip them in clonex solution before use

Hi Dina, I have reused them several times over. I keep them in the tray they come in, use a ziploc bag to store them in, and keep refrigerated.

I just keep them in a cooler room, I think freezing may make them mushy. Fridge might be alright although I haven't done that. I use it every day in my protein shakes so doesn't sit around a long time..just looked at the pkg. and says to refrigerate, guess I will be keeping it there from now on

I believe so, I put mine in the freezer all the time. I make a large batch, freeze and take out when I need them.

Yes I understand they should be stored refrigerated, except for the one you are using. That is what I do.

I used most o them right away, making my own vanilla extract. I wrapped the rest very well in plastic and froze them. I haven't used any since but I am sure they will be fine I left to thaw at room temp and kept tightly sealed.

I always thaw only the quantity I need, the rest stays in the freezer.i can't imagine keeping it more than 48-72 hours by itself. You could always ask the vendor?

No need. Item is salted for preservation. I don't refrigerate at all. Even after opening.

I use an old yogurt container and stand them up in the freezer. I can get all 6 in my container.

The manufacturers don't mention the need for refrigeration, so they should be OK. I do store mine in a fridge because that's what I've always done.

You can wrap them in cling film tightly, and the place them in a ziplock bag and remove as much air as possible. Store in the pantry. I'm not sure if they can be frozen though.

I would think in the freezer in zip locks would be the way to store them. A deep freeze would be even better than the freezer compartment of the refrigerator.
