I eat them daily!! You are fine. I thaw them out to eat them and I spend an hour in the grocery after I get them.I have no idea why they need to stay frozen...it's chocolate cake with choc syrup. What could go bad?? I think they say that so they can keep them for longer. I eat one every single day and I sometimes even notice that all the choc. has run to one side which means that the sauce stuff on top has thawed out and been refrozen.
