I have recently unexpectedly acquired a decent harvest of quinces. I would like to make these into [jelly](https://www.thespruceeats.com/quince-jelly-recipe-1327853), but don't have time right now.

Can I freeze the quinces for a few months and then use them to make the jelly later?

If so, should I freeze them whole or prepared in some way?

Or is there a better way I can store them?
