Storage and crystallisation notes

The product should be stored at a temperature between 12 and 25°C, away from heat sources and temperature swings. Hazelnut creams contain fats that, at too-low temperatures, may harden or show surface separation; storing within the indicated range helps maintain the spreadable texture. If hardening occurs due to cold, bring the product back to room temperature and stir it. Always reseal the pail after use.
