Enjoy the creamy, meltable goodness of vegan mozzarella, a plant-based cheese alternative perfect for pizzas, sandwiches, and countless culinary creations. This dairy-free delight offers a satisfying texture and mild flavor, making it a versatile staple for vegan and dairy-free diets.

Storage Time

Typically lasts 7-10 days in the refrigerator after opening, and up to 2-3 months when frozen.

Temperature

Keep refrigerated at or below 4°C (40°F).

Freezing

Vegan mozzarella freezes remarkably well, preserving its texture and flavor for future use. For best results, ensure the product is well-sealed in its original packaging or transferred to an airtight freezer bag or container to prevent freezer burn. Thaw slowly in the refrigerator overnight before using. While freezing may slightly alter the texture, making it a bit softer upon thawing, it remains excellent for cooked dishes like pizzas and gratins.

Signs of Spoilage

• Unpleasant, sour, or yeasty odor.
• Slimy or sticky texture on the surface.
• Visible mold growth, which can appear as fuzzy patches of various colors (green, blue, white, or black).
