shelf life for yeast donut
Posted by Olga from San Juan, PR on June 21, 2010

Chris,

I am from Puerto Rico,we make yeast donuts every day. This is because we have tried to make our donuts shelf life to last for more than 36 hours.. Can you help us?

Olga

Hi Olga
Thank you for contacting us.

You can add preservatives and gums to the recipe but that would change the eating quality. Keep in mind that certain coatings, icings and toppings may also deteriorate the shelf life (ex: powdered sugar dissolves and decreases your shelf life).

I suggest you take your donuts to the next level and expand to sell into all day parts. An example would be to offer rings filled with whipped topping and/or a creamy, savory filling. Packaging may also be something to think about.

We offer an extended shelf life yeast donut mix. Please contact your local CSM representative and ask for a sample.
