Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Chocolate Fondue expire?
Unopened, pre-packaged Chocolate Fondue usually has a shelf life of about 6-12 months in the pantry, always check the 'Best by' date on the package. Once it has been opened, if stored properly, it'll last for about 2-4 weeks in the refrigerator. As for homemade chocolate fondue, it needs to be used within 2-3 days. If it's frozen, the homemade chocolate fondue will last about 2 months if stored in an airtight container.
How do you tell if Chocolate Fondue is bad?
Knowing if chocolate fondue has gone bad is simple. It starts to have a dull look instead of its typical shiny appearance when it starts to degrade. Mold or a sour smell are obvious indicators. One important thing to remember is that if it has a 'bloom'— a white, dusty layer on the surface — that's not necessarily an indicator that it has gone bad. This is simply the cocoa fat separating and rising to the surface, a process called blooming. It's still safe to eat but may have a slightly different texture.
Tips for storing Chocolate Fondue to extend shelf life
• Ensure that the chocolate fondue is stored in an airtight container. This helps to keep out moisture and other contaminants. • For unopened store-bought chocolate fondue, storing it in a cool, dry place like a kitchen cabinet is fine. • Once opened, refrigerate the chocolate fondue. Ensure it's well covered to prevent it from absorbing odors of other foods in the fridge. • If you want to freeze the chocolate fondue, pour into an airtight container leaving some space for expansion. When ready to use, let it thaw overnight in the refrigerator instead of room temperature to keep it from getting too grainy. • Do not store chocolate fondue near strong-smelling foods. Chocolate has the ability to absorb smells, which could lead to unpleasant taste.
