WHAT IS THE TEXTURE OF SEA MOSS GEL?

Ocean Bay Pure Sea Moss Gel is produced as a gel, but the beauty of OBP is its versatility. If you prefer your sea moss gel with more of an applesauce texture, or if you just want to change things up, put your jar of OBP Sea Moss Gel in the freezer overnight. Defrost before using.

It can also be used as a salad dressing, added to a fruit, ice cream, or yogurt bowl, or as a thickening agent in soups, stews, or casseroles. The uses are only limited to your imagination and creative cooking! 

WHY DO SOME JARS VARY IN COLOR AND FLAVOR BETWEEN ORDERS?

All Ocean Bay Pure ingredients are from natural sources, therefore, flavors can exhibit mild color and taste changes between orders without any effect on the health benefits. There are a variety of reasons why flavors may vary in color over time or between orders. Natural flavors are subject to color variations based on the raw materials themselves, which can vary from natural causes like crop variations from year to year. Nature is imperfectly perfect! But other factors such as heat, light, and oxygen exposure are the most common causes of color changes in flavors over time. That is why sea moss gel must be kept sealed and refrigerated. Exposure to air and heat can cause the sea moss gel to deteriorate quickly and contribute to mold and bacteria growth.

HOW LONG DOES SEA MOSS LAST?

Dried sea moss has a shelf life of approximately one year when stored in a cool, dry, and dark space. Ocean Bay Pure Sea Moss Gel is best when used within 3 to 4 weeks. Sea moss gel must be kept sealed and refrigerated. Also, care should be taken to avoid cross-contamination.

Please note: Spoilage rates for sea moss gel can vary. Sea moss gel is best when consumed upon purchasing, rather than storing it for lengthy periods of time. Some of the signs of spoilage can include a slimy-like coating on the top, an unusually pungent aroma or taste, and/or mold. If you suspect spoilage or find any signs of mold, please discontinue use, and contact us promptly.  

CAN YOU FREEZE SEA MOSS?

Yes, freezing your Ocean Bay Pure Sea Moss Gel can significantly extend the shelf life up to 6 months. Remember, when you freeze OBP Sea Moss Gel the texture will change. After freezing it will have more of an applesauce texture. Defrost before using.
