Storage Time

Temperature
Store refrigerated pizza at or below 4°C (40°F).
Freezing
To freeze homemade cheese pizza, allow it to cool completely. Wrap individual slices or the entire pizza tightly in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil or place in a freezer-safe airtight container to prevent freezer burn. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating in an oven or toaster oven for best results. Freezing may slightly alter the crust's texture.
Signs of Spoilage
- A sour or off smell emanating from the cheese or crust.
- Visible mold growth, often appearing as fuzzy green, white, or black spots.
- A slimy or sticky texture on the cheese or crust surface.
