Can lemon curd be frozen? how long does it last in the jar? I have just made my first batch but wondered what its shelf life is so that I can give it away as Crimble presents ... can anyone advise please?

No more than 6 weeks at the outside in the fridge, although the W.I reccomends 3 weeks. Make small jars. Never frozen it. And welcome!

I always thought you couldn't but apparently it freezes well for up to a year. You learn something new every day And welcome from France where lemon curd freezing may well be taking place in the next week or so

I'd have assumed it could be frozen merely as the local icecream producer sells lemon curd ice cream and it's yum!

I've frozen cakes with lemon curd filling in and they're fine too
