Synthetic food colorings generally have a very long shelf life and should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Natural food colorings may be more susceptible to degradation from heat and light, so refrigeration in an airtight container is recommended to preserve their color and potency. Always check the expiration date and appearance of the coloring before use. A change in color or consistency may indicate spoilage or decreased effectiveness.
