Thanks in advance. ==>Debby, it is a saturated fat like lard and coconut oil so you shouldn't have to keep it frozen. If you have a large amount I suggest you thaw it, and keep the portion you will use in a 1-2 months in the cupboard, and keep the remainder in the fridge or frozen, as you wish. I don't believe it will go rancid for a very long time, just like lard and coconut oil (keeps for 2 years without refrigeration). Bee Quote
