How long would flan last unrefrigerated? Or how long if it was refrigerated?
Answers:
Unrefrigerated I wouldn't think the consistency would hold up well for more than a few hours depending on the temp. Refrigerated probably a couple of days
Since flan is an egg product, I wouldn't leave it at room temperature for too long...an hour at most, and even less during hot weather.
In the fridge, it should keep perfectly well for at least 2-3 days. To keep it fresher, and prevent a "skin" from forming on top, place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the flan.
Depending on the time of year and how warm the room is, a day or two. A week if refrigerated.
Flan is a custard dessert that needs refrigeration, the flavor is best cold. The texture will begin to break down after a couple of days. It'll still be safe to eat, just not as tasty.
