Will These Ever Expire?

[Ratmosphere]

As you can see, I have a lot of beetle jelly (banana and brown sugar). I am curious on when these will expire because there is no expiration date on them. Any ideas?

Did you import those?

PM me.

If you keep these in a fridge, they would last forever

They will probably take up half of the fridge. For now, the cold garage during winter would suffice.

Thank you for the advice.

they do but my beetles dont care xD

 

[Ratmosphere]

Haha thanks man I'll keep that in mind.

They last for a very long time unopened. They will start to slowly liquify over time - the warmer they are kept the faster this will happen.

Higher quality jelly tends to last longer, I just got lots of it in:

Wow!

You can still use older (juicier) ones, as long as they don't smell funny or fermented when you open them.

I have been storing my jellies in the garage this past winter. However, it is getting significantly warmer out thus heating up the garage. I don't have a lot of room in the refrigerator but how about the freezer? Would this ruin the jelly?

 

[Beetle-Experience]

I haven't tested a freezer yet. I keep boxes in a closet in my bedroom, then put the individual cups in the refrigerator after I open them.

Just found out that they last 1 year at room temperature.
