How long will homemade butter last in the refrigerator?

Answer 1

I worked in a bakery that made huge vats of butter-cream and stored it in 5 gal buckets, out of refrigeration, for up to a week. That being said, if you are using real butter (as opposed to margarine) I would recommend using it as soon as it is made and refrigerating any leftovers within a couple of hours. Not only will you risk spoilage otherwise, but overly soft buttercream is very hard to decorate with.

Answer 2

Frostings made with dairy (butter and milk) can last a few weeks in the fridge, and several months in the freezer. Frostings made with oils (including shortening) last much longer and don't need to be refrigerated.

It really depends on your recipe, but it usually lasts 1-2 days.

Answer 3

Fondant should not be kept in the refrigerator for more than a week.

Answer 4

If stored properly in the refrigerator, it can last for a week or two.

Answer 5

Cream cheese frosting in the refrigerator lasts about a week or less.

Answer 6

Only about 2 weeks. Salt it and keep it well wrapped to better preserve it.

Answer 7

If it's been kept refrigerated since it was made, or since the can was opened, it will be good for about a week. Just be sure to keep it in a tightly sealed container to keep it fresh.

Answer 8

yes
