Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Peanut Butter Fudge expire?
Unopened, commercially made peanut butter fudge can last about 7 months from the date of purchase if stored appropriately. Once opened, it should ideally be eaten within 2 weeks, though some fudge can stretch its freshness up to a month. Homemade peanut butter fudge usually remains fresh up to 2 weeks. If you decide to freeze the fudge, it can stretch its life to about 6 months.
How do you tell if Peanut Butter Fudge is bad?
Telling if peanut butter fudge has gone bad can be quite easy. Unappealing changes in the fudge are a clear sign it has spoiled. Discoloration should be the first thing you notice; if the fudge turns dark brown, it’s time to throw it out. An unusual odor, similar to that of sour milk, is another sign. Lastly, if you notice any signs of mold growth, get rid of it, as it's not safe to consume.
Tips for storing Peanut Butter Fudge to extend shelf life
• When it comes to storing peanut butter fudge, remember to keep it in an airtight container. The less air and moisture, the longer it will stay fresh. • You should preferably store it in a cool, dark place such as a cupboard or pantry. Avoid keeping it in places with drastic temperature changes like near the oven or the refrigerator. • For longer storage life, consider freezing your peanut butter fudge. Before storing it in the freezer, give the fudge a wrap in cling film, and then place it in a heavy-duty freezer bag. This prevents any freezer burn and keeps the fudge fresh. • Always thaw your frozen fudge in the refrigerator overnight before you plan to consume it. After thawing, consume within a week for optimal freshness.
