It may be tempting to freeze a few pieces for future gourmet treats! Yes, but there you go, our cakes contain flour, cream and mousse and freezing has an effect on their flavor and texture...

How long does food last in the freezer? A list to see more clearly!
ALL foods have a freezer expiration date. How long food can be stored in the freezer depends on the type of food and freezing conditions. In general, food can be stored for three to twelve months. Make sure to store your food in airtight packaging to avoid ice crystals forming and quality degradation. For this, freezer bags or plastic boxes will do the job perfectly. Above all, consult the specific recommendations for each type of food and respect the expiration dates to guarantee food safety. Finally, remember to label foods with the freezing date for proper tracking.
