yes they can be frozen Thermo , not really sure on how long maybe 6 months

[Thermo Mrs]

I will most likely use them within a couple of months so I should be right. Thanks Fundj

[fundj&e]

i would use even after 1 year Thermo

I froze thickened cream and when I thawed it in the fridge the consistency had changed. Is it still ok to use even if it looks as if it has curdled?

[judydawn]

Yes it is Courton.  not sure if it will still beat but quite OK to use in cooking.  If I want to freeze cream to whip, I whip it then freeze it.

Thanks JD!

Vanilla Pods also keep well in the freezer.

What recipe for pastry do you use if you are planning to freeze it for future use. Or is it just easier to by the already frozen?

[fundj&e]

i think any pastry freezes well bb, i  bake mine 1st then freeze

i have been making  my sour cream pastry and that freezes really well
