Enjoy the creamy, dairy-free goodness of coconut yogurt, a versatile plant-based alternative perfect for smoothies, parfaits, or as a savory topping. Proper storage ensures its delightful texture and fresh flavor are preserved for your culinary creations.

Storage Time

Once opened, consume within 5-7 days. Unopened, refer to the 'best by' date, typically 2-3 weeks.

Temperature

Always keep refrigerated at or below 4°C (40°F) to maintain optimal freshness and prevent spoilage.

Freezing

Coconut yogurt can be frozen to extend its shelf life, though its texture may change upon thawing, becoming slightly more watery or grainy. For best results, freeze in airtight containers, leaving a little headspace for expansion. Thaw slowly in the refrigerator overnight. Stir well before consuming; it's ideal for cooking or baking after freezing rather than eating plain.

Signs of Spoilage

• Unpleasant, sour, or fermented odor.
• Visible mold growth, which can appear as fuzzy patches of various colors.
• Significant separation of liquid from the solids, or a slimy or unusually watery texture.
