Storage Time
Unopened: 1-2 years in pantry. Opened: 6-12 months in pantry, 1-2 years in refrigerator.
Temperature
Store unopened syrup in a cool, dry pantry away from direct sunlight. Once opened, refrigeration at 0-4°C (32-40°F) is recommended to preserve its best quality and prevent spoilage.
Freezing
Yes, breakfast syrup can be frozen to extend its shelf life significantly. Pour the syrup into freezer-safe containers or bags, leaving some headspace for expansion. Thaw frozen syrup in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature. While freezing is safe, some slight texture changes might occur upon thawing, but the flavor will remain largely unaffected.
Signs of Spoilage
- Visible mold growth on the surface or edges.
- Unpleasant, sour, or fermented odor.
- Significant change in color, such as darkening or cloudiness, especially if it wasn't present before.
