How long does frozen mixed fruit last? The precise answer to that question depends to a large extent on storage conditions - keep mixed fruit frozen at all times.
Properly stored, frozen mixed fruit will maintain best quality for about 12 months in the freezer, although it will usually remain safe to eat after that.
Is frozen mixed fruit safe to eat after the expiration date on the package? Yes, if properly stored - commercially frozen mixed fruit 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 frozen mixed fruit will remain at peak quality.
How long will frozen mixed fruit remain safe to eat? Frozen mixed fruit that has been kept constantly frozen at 0°F will keep safe indefinitely, as long as it has been stored properly and the package is not damaged.
How to tell if frozen mixed fruit is no longer good? If dry spots or discoloration have developed on the frozen mixed fruit, freezer burn has begun to set in - this will not make the mixed fruit unsafe to eat, but it will harm the texture and taste.
