Store-bought, unopened fish cakes typically last for about a week past the printed date on the package. Once opened, they should be consumed within 2 to 3 days. If frozen, they will last for about 6 months.
How do you tell if Fish Cakes is bad?
It's easy to tell when fish cakes have gone bad. The easiest sign is a sour or off-smell, unfamiliar with fish cakes' usual smell. If it smells stronger than usual, it’s best to throw it out. Also, feel the texture with your clean fingers; it should not be too hard or too mushy. Finally, look for a change of color, like if it turned grey or dark, it's no longer safe.
Tips for storing Fish Cakes to extend shelf life
• Never leave fish cakes out for more than 2 hours at room temperature. • Opened fish cakes should be sealed tightly with wrap before returning them to the fridge. • For longer periods, package them appropriately (you can use a freezer bag or vacuum sealed bag) and freeze them. • Upon defrosting, it's best to do this in your refrigerator over a day or two for safety reasons and to retain texture. • Always cook fish cakes to the appropriate temperature to avoid any potential foodborne illness.
