are these good for freezing homemade soups?

I have not used mine in the freezer since they have a tendency to crack on the bottom. Once they crack they do not work but use E6000 glue on the crack to once more seal from air getting into them.

No, these containers are not for freezing. You would use the foodsaver bags for that.

Without using the vacuum lid? I don't know, to be honest. Just be cautious using the vacuum.

I have sealed soups in the cannister and in the bags.. In the bas you have to be very careful. If you seal in the cannisters you cannot freeze in them.You can freeze in Mason and Ball jars, just make sure they have enough air space at the top. Usually at least 1 in.. I don't know about the seals as I have never had to replace...Hope this helps some...

I have not personally tried to freeze anything yet, but they are glass so I don't see why you could not use like a regular mason jar (leave enough space for expansion). Even if you do not use as intended, you won't be disappointed with these little jars. My friend uses the set I g ave her for salad dressings because they do not spill the liquid.

I did use them for freezing, using my vacuum sealer for the jar. seems to have worked well.

I think your ok to use in the freezer, but don't try to heat in them--not at all like Pyrex, which can be heated. I tried to warm on stove with one of the Libbey ones and it cracked. I think these are mainly for food storage only.

I use mine for freezing and they work out very well. It is recommended, though, that once they are used for freezing (or microwaved) that they should not be used for canning.

Yes, these work great for freezer storage. I have froze breast milk and homemade baby food for 3 of my children in these, and have never had problems. They go directly from freezer, to bottle warmer to dishwasher with out any difficulty.

I believe so, I put mine in the freezer all the time. I make a large batch, freeze and take out when I need them.

Yes, they handle heated things well. I prefer my soup in ceramics though so i mostly use these for salads, fruits popcorn, and ral.

I freeze soups, chili, spaghetti sauce.... anything liquid in the bags without a problem. They freeze beautifully and stack perfectly in the freezer.

When I do my meal prep I don't freeze so I wouldn't be able to answer that. However they seem very durable so I would believe so.

I have not done that yet. You may want to try it first. I do use these a lot, I just never froze them. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

Yes, they can be used for hot soup. Restaurants have put my hot soup in these containers for to go orders as well as leftovers.

i am not sure these can be frozen. They are dry, like pasta. So they have a very long shelf life if kept dry. I keep mine in the pantry, and they seem to keep in good shape for a long time. Hope that helps.

I have not tried to freeze them. And I don't think it would work very well. If the expanding liquid didn't break them, the extreme cold would probably make them more prone to crack

I have used them to freeze leftovers. As long as there is enough room left for the contents to expand when frozen, it should be fine.

Yes, I haven't had any problem with them. They just aren't microwave safe for more than a minute (as in, don't heat up soup, but a quick zap of cold tea is fine).
