anything you want to use them for is fine.

i mix them into plain yogurt with splenda, and stir if you use a smallenough
amount of yogurt, it chills everything to "sorta" frozen yogurt...

i haven't ever managed to keep them frozen for six months so no idea how
long they really last.

instead of using a cookie sheet, put them in a 9 x 13 pan so they don't
spill, every hour or so go in and shake the pan to keep them loose, you can
store in one large bag if you freeze them so they are individual.
