Can this dip for fruit be frozen?
The dip can be mixed together and stored in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 1 week. But, it can also be frozen in a freezer-safe container for up to 1 month. However, for the best result, thaw completely in the refrigerator before serving if the texture is too thick, reblend in a high-speed blender with a little added water or additional orange juice.
