Hints & Tips

Get the most out of your laFresca® avocado products

Shelf-life 

As our avocado products use High Pressure Processing, they have a unique shelf life of up to 14 days.  We recommend that when you open a pack, it should be used within 1 day.

Storage

Always store your laFresca® avocado products in the fridge and ensure they are tightly covered in foil or plastic wrap.  The less air that comes in contact with the avocado, the longer it will last.

Browning

Other avocado products will begin to brown after 15 minutes, whereas laFresca® avocado products will last 4-6 hours before browning.  Oxygen makes avocados brown, so we recommend that they are tightly covered to keep fresher for longer. 

Lemon Juice
Another well-known tip is to squeeze a little lemon juice over avocados to prevent browning - this is what most other avocado products use to suggest a fresh product, but with laFresca® avocados, this can be used to prolong the fresh, green, natural avocado colour. 

We have put a lot of care into ensuring all our avocado products have maximum shelf life and great taste through our unique production procedure.  If you want to know more head over to our Process page.
