After opening, you must keep this topping refrigerated to preserve its taste and texture. Always close the lid tightly after each use. Storing it in the fridge helps prevent spoilage and maintains the desired consistency.
While an exact 'use-by' period after opening isn't specified in the provided information, a general guideline for similar refrigerated products is 2-4 weeks. Always check the product's own expiration date on the packaging. For safety and quality, use a clean spoon each time you take some out to avoid introducing bacteria. If you notice any off smells, visible mold, or significant changes in texture or color, do not use the product. For long-term storage, it is not recommended to freeze this topping as freezing can damage its texture and cause separation when thawed.
