Apple tart

Storage Time

3–4 days at room temperature (if unfrosted and not containing dairy), 2–3 days in the refrigerator, and up to 2–3 months in the freezer.

Temperature

Store at room temperature (18-22°C) if unfrosted and without dairy, or refrigerate at 0–4°C for optimal freshness.

Freezing

To freeze apple tart, ensure it is completely cooled. Wrap individual slices or the entire tart tightly in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil or place in a freezer-safe container. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before gently reheating in a low oven (150°C) for about 10-15 minutes to restore crispness. Freezing may slightly alter the texture of the crust.

Signs of Spoilage

• Mold growth on the surface or edges of the tart.
• A sour or fermented smell, especially from the apple filling.
• Mushy or overly soggy crust, indicating moisture absorption and potential bacterial activity.
