How to Store Dates and Keep Them Fresh

Tips3 min readBy Tibra Foods

Simple storage habits that protect the softness and flavour of your dates, at home or in the warehouse.

Keep them sealed

Dates absorb odours and can dry out when exposed to air. Keep them in their sealed pack or an airtight container, away from strong-smelling foods.

Cool, dry and away from sun

A cool, dry cupboard works for everyday use. Heat and humidity speed up drying and spoilage, so avoid direct sunlight and warm spots near the stove.

Fridge or freezer for longer

For longer freshness, store dates in the fridge, and in the freezer for extended storage. Let them reach room temperature before eating to bring back their soft texture. Businesses should follow the storage guidance agreed with their supplier.
