I've never actually checked with date in/date out, but I am sure I've had butter in the freezer for at least 6 months, and probably longer. Since remembering to overwrap it I've never had a problem with the taste.Lu King said:How long will it last in the freezer?ORChick said:For those of you new to the idea of freezing butter - make sure you overwrap the butter (for this I use heavy duty plastic freezer bags, even though I am really trying to use less plastic ). Just popping the boxes into the freezer, as I used to do, shortens the shelf life considerably. I believe it was Alton Brown who likened the result to "rancid yak butter" . With the extra protection it lasts much longer in a usable state.
