How long can strawberry Jelly and syrup last before it spoils?!
Answers: ?
Sugar is a natural preservative. What this means is if mold appears on the top of the jelly, remove it with a spoon the use the rest. This was per my foods teacher in 9th grade. Note: I'm much older now. Did you know that honey is a great preservative and can be used indefinitely?
I never have seen spoiled syrup for same reason. Exception to rule may be real syrup because it says to refrigerate after opening.
6 months if you made it yourself.... 3 years if you got it in the store.
