Once you are done don't let it harden in the pan or the bowl. Immediately pour the leftover almond bark on to parchment paper and put it in the freezer to harden. Now store this in an airtight container in the freezer. You can use it again for making cakes or dipping candy in as long as you did not already dip candy in it. Normally they say it can last for several months like this.

As long as you do not over heat it, you can wrap tightly and freeze for future use. Make sure when you are freezing it that you get as much air out of package so that it doesn't add moisture/water to your bark!

It will start killing the texture and giving it this odd separated granular oiliness. Try to use what you can in bits and don't keep reheating. Same goes for most foods.

If you have made the bark and it is a new batch this should be fine. If you purchased this in the store then it is not a good idea to use this. The bark seems old and I would not trust it at all.

Where I live there are times we buy products in our store that are new and the date is still good on the product. When we open it up the product is bad and we can not use it.

How long does white almond bark last? I have a package from last Christmas. It still looks and smells good, but I don't want to use it if it could go bad.

There should be a out date on the pkg. but normally it is good for a year or more when you melt it you will know if its good because it won't melt smoothly.

If you're talking about baking usage it will be just fine :-) Even to simply eat it is still good but just might not 'look fresh'. Any type of chocolate stays good just about forever ;-)

I bought a package of almond bark last year on sale. I just used it to dip pretzels in for the holidays. No problem at all, they are delicious.

Sugar dries things out so well that it's a good preservative, so the almond bark is probably fine.
