OUR FAQs

Premium Pesto, such as Sacla’ Pesto, is safe to eat during pregnancy. While it contains Italian hard cheese, Sacla’ uses pasteurised cheese, which means it can be safely enjoyed even when pregnant.

Once the carefully selected, high-quality ingredients in Sacla’ Pesto have been expertly combined in the correct proportions, the mixture is dispensed into jars. These jars are then vacuum sealed for a perfect airtight seal, before being pasteurised for your protection using a mild heat treatment.

Sacla’ Pesto can be stored in a home freezer for up to a month without any noticeable loss of flavour. Pesto can be frozen for longer (up to 6 months), but it will lose some flavour in this time. When used in a sauce or marinade, for example, this will hardly be noticed.

As Sacla’ Pesto is pasteurised, there is no need to store unopened jars of Pesto in the fridge. Simply use them before their ‘Best Before’ date. Opened jars should be kept in the fridge and can be eaten safely for up to 2 weeks without risk or noticeable loss of flavour.
