Enjoy your delicious chocolate pudding at its best by following these expert storage guidelines. Proper refrigeration ensures optimal flavor and safety for this beloved sweet treat.

Storage Time

Homemade chocolate pudding typically lasts 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Commercially prepared, unopened pudding can last until the 'best by' date, and once opened, it should be consumed within 5-7 days.

Temperature

Always store chocolate pudding in the refrigerator, ideally between 0°C and 4°C (32°F and 40°F), to maintain its creamy texture and prevent bacterial growth.

Freezing

While chocolate pudding can be frozen, its creamy texture may change upon thawing. To freeze, spoon individual portions into airtight containers or freezer bags, leaving a little headspace for expansion. Thaw slowly in the refrigerator overnight for the best results. Expect a slightly grainier or separated texture after freezing and thawing, which is still safe to consume but may not be as smooth.

Signs of Spoilage

A sour or off smell, distinct from its usual chocolate aroma.
Visible mold growth, which can appear as fuzzy patches of various colors.
A watery or separated texture, where liquid has pooled significantly on the surface or the pudding has become unusually lumpy.
