Storage tips
- Keep chiffon pies sealed and refrigerated after opening to hit the window above.
- Freezing chiffon pies is not recommended, so use them within the window above instead.
- Refrigerate custard, cream and egg-based bakes, and thaw them in the fridge rather than on the counter.
- Keep flours, sugars and other dry baking staples sealed and away from moisture. Clumping usually means damp, not spoiled, but it also means the container is not airtight.
How can you tell if chiffon pies have gone bad?
- Any visible mold, including a faint fuzz or discoloration.
- Do not just cut mold off soft breads and cakes; the spores run deeper than they look.
- A sour, yeasty or off smell that was not there when fresh.
