Pancake Syrup
Pancake Syrup
Pancake syrup adds just the right amount of sweetness to savory meats or unsweetened cereals, making it an essential component of any hearty breakfast. CVS carries a wide variety of pancake syrup options for those looking to replace sweeter choices, such as corn syrup or honey, in their early morning meals.
How Long Does Pancake Syrup Last?
Because pancake syrup is usually made with preservatives, it can be stored indefinitely, but it's at its most flavorful when used on baked goods within a year of opening. It's recommended you keep a sugar-free pancake syrup, such as the delicious and plant-based RxSugar Organic Chocolate Syrup, in a cool, dry, place for up to 6 months after opening. On the other hand, maple syrup contains no preservatives, so store it in its original container in the refrigerator once opened to help prevent mold formation. Typically, pancake syrups have a best-by date on the bottle that ranges between 2 and 3 years from the purchase date. Always inspect the syrup for signs of spoilage before consuming.
What Is the Best Pancake Syrup?
If you want the best pancake syrup that's free of artificial preservatives, flavors or sweeteners, try drizzling a generous amount of Gold Emblem Abound organic maple syrup on your oatmeal, French toast, waffles or stacks of pancakes in the morning. Gold Emblem's original syrup is an ideal sugar substitute in your sweetened baked dishes as well as a fat-free addition to biscuits, sausages, strips of bacon and other mouthwatering favorites. Another pancake syrup that provides a great breakfast experience for the whole family is Aunt Jemima Original syrup, which offers the perfect balance of sweet and buttery flavor and uniform pouring consistency.
Does Pancake Syrup Need to Be Refrigerated?
For optimum freshness, each bottle of pancake syrup can be stored as is in the pantry or placed in a sealed storage bag, unopened or opened, without needing to be refrigerated. Unopened maple syrup keeps for 2-4 years unrefrigerated, but when opened, it needs to be stored in the fridge. If the packaging doesn't clearly state that the pancake syrup can be stored at room temperature, err on the side of caution, and keep the syrup refrigerated to protect your family's health and safety. Additionally, if your pancake and waffle syrup has started to crystallize, simply heat it in a saucepan over low heat until it's smooth and warm.
