Storage Time

3–4 days in the refrigerator, up to 2 months in the freezer.

Temperature

Store refrigerated at 0–4°C (32–40°F) for optimal freshness.

Freezing

To freeze pineapple upside-down cake, ensure it is completely cooled. Wrap individual slices or the entire cake tightly in plastic wrap, followed by a layer of aluminum foil or a freezer-safe container. This prevents freezer burn and preserves the cake's delicate texture. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving for the best quality. While freezing is possible, the texture of the cake and the caramel topping may soften slightly upon thawing.

Signs of Spoilage

• A sour or fermented smell emanating from the cake.
• Visible mold growth, which can appear as fuzzy spots of various colors.
• A slimy or sticky texture on the cake's surface or fruit topping.
