Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Donut Hole expire?
Donut holes bought from a store usually last for about 1-2 days at room temperature if unopened and stored correctly. If kept in the refrigerator, they can last a bit longer, probably up to a week. If you freeze them, they can last up to 3 months. Homemade donut holes should be eaten on the same day they are made. If they are not eaten immediately, they can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Nevertheless, they will lose their freshness and taste the longer they are kept.
How do you tell if Donut Hole is bad?
If the donut holes become hard, crusty, dry, or if there are signs of mold, then they're definitely bad. In addition, if they emit a sour or off-putting smell, it's another sign that they are not good to eat. Discoloration or any change in appearance can also indicate spoilage.
Tips for storing Donut Hole to extend shelf life
• Always store donut holes in a cool, dry place to maintain their freshness. A bread box, pantry, or a cupboard away from heat sources like the stove or oven is ideal. • For extended storage, refrigerate donut holes in an airtight container. This will help to maintain their moisture and prevent them from drying out. • If you want to freeze donut holes, first let them cool completely, then place them in a zip-top freezer bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible before sealing. When you’re ready to eat them, allow them to thaw at room temperature or microwave them for 10-15 seconds. • Remember not to store donut holes or any other pastries while they're still hot. This could lead to condensation, making them soggy or promoting mold growth.
