Can I use these containers to store soup in the freezer?

Yes the are also perfect for that as well. My husband made "she crab soup" for a gift. We placed a piece of plastic wrap over the soup then place the lid on. It froze perfectly .

I haven't tried it and just thought about it yesterday (made a big pot of soup). I think it would be great. They have 2 tiny holes in the top to let steam out. It's also the only container that keeps my ice cream from getting freezer burn. It's great quality as well.

I usually store my freezer meals in a freezer ziplock bag. I suppose you could try it but you would have to find a way to close it really well. Otherwise it will spill before it is frozen. It might freeze an awkward shape and not fit into the crock pot. Plus, the plastic is not very thick like a zip lock bag or freezer bag.

We have frozen milk in these short-term only without any problems. I wouldn't recommend these for long-term freezer storage since there would be a layer of air between the milk and the lid.

You can if you want your freezer to reek of onion. I just threw mine away because it would not contain the smell.

According to the manufacture, they are freezer safe. My wife and I use freezer bags or plastic storage containers to store items in the freezer.

I have used them in the freezer to store red chili sauce I make with no problem but they are not pyrex and I broke one in the microwave once. So freezer is ok but not for use in the oven or microwave, in my experience.

I found that the covers didn't fit tight enough for it to be used in the freezer. Now maybe you have better fitting covers then I do. In that case your lucky.

Yes, you can. I use them on freezer bags and plastic containers in which I store leftovers in the freezer.

They can be used in the freezer just don't overfill. They can't be heated hotter than hot soup.

I have not used for freezing food but think they would work well. They are a heavier plastic than some and quite airtight. 2oz is still quite small.

I have sealed soups in the cannister and in the bags.. In the bas you have to be very careful. If you seal in the cannisters you cannot freeze in them.You can freeze in Mason and Ball jars, just make sure they have enough air space at the top. Usually at least 1 in.. I don't know about the seals as I have never had to replace...Hope this helps some...

Yes, you can put them in the freezer, however...wait until the contents thaws, if you try to force it, they may crack, break off a corner. They also do not survive being dropped on the floor very well.Hope that helps, other than that I love using them. I like squares rather that round containers for stacking.

Yes, this particular set is all same size and excellent for freezer food storage. I stack these 4 high and have collected 24 to allow me to have a variety of selections to choose from from home made soup to lasagna (which I bake right in the bowls.)

Hi. I have these for ice cream. But believe they would work great for hot soup The lids appear to be vented with a second layer beneath. Hope this helps!

I don't see why not if you're using glass jars. However, if you really want to preserve the nutrition freezing is the best way.

These are wonderful heavy duty reusable storage containers - Number 5 plastic. I purchased both the 16 and 32 oz containers and store sauces, chili soups and other items in the freezer. The trick is not to open the container frozen or the top plastic band cracks but if you runt the top under hot water for a few seconds, it opens easily without cracking. They are wonderful storage containers.
