Shelf Life Tips

  • How long does an unopened package of fruit breakfast syrup last? The precise answer depends to a large extent on storage conditions -to maximize shelf life, store in a cool, dry area.
  • How long does an unopened package of fruit breakfast syrup last at room temperature? Properly stored, an unopened package of fruit breakfast syrup will generally stay at best quality for about 2 to 3 years.
  • Is unopened fruit breakfast syrup safe to use after the expiration date on the package? Yes, provided it is properly stored and the package is undamaged - commercially packaged fruit breakfast syrup will typically carry a Best By," "Best if Used By," Best Before, or "Best When Used By" date but this is not a safety date, it is the manufacturer's estimate of how long the fruit breakfast syrup will remain at peak quality.
  • Storage time shown is for best quality only - after that, the fruit breakfast syrup's texture, color or flavor may change, but in most cases, it will still be safe to consume if it has been stored properly, the package is undamaged, and there are no signs of spoilage (see below).
  • How can you tell if fruit breakfast syrup is bad or spoiled? The best way is to smell and look at the fruit breakfast syrup: if the syrup develops an off odor, flavor or appearance, or if mold appears, it should be discarded.
