The practice of freezing pasta and pastries is becoming more common. If you want to keep your favorite treats for a longer period of time, there are a few basic rules you need to follow.
It is important to know that suitable for freezing in a refrigerator or freezer are both the dough and cake trays and ready-made cakes. The pastry dough is frozen in plastic wrap or plastic bags. The main requirement for freezing is that the pasta must be fresh.
Unsuitable for the freezer are pastries that contain jellies, jams or fresh fruit, as well as those made from protein dough.
Also, the jam should not be covered with icing. This should be done after thawing the pasta.
It is good to wrap them in aluminum foil. With it, after removing it, you will easily be able to defrost them in the oven. And for smaller cakes, it is better to put them in plastic containers first, then freeze them.
It should also be noted that cakes are best frozen at room temperature. In this way, they best retain their taste and freshness. Before serving, if allowed, the cakes can be warmed in the oven for about 5 to 10 minutes.
Cake trays have a shelf life of 3 to 6 months. Defrosting takes 2 to 3 hours at room temperature. The bread can stay in the freezer for up to 6 months. Then it begins to lose its good taste. Thaw again for 2-3 hours at room temperature.
Yeast cakes have a shorter shelf life - up to 3 months. Thaw within 2 to 4 hours. The same goes for crumbs from crumbly butter dough.
Cream cakes can be kept in the freezer for a month, up to a month and a half. Thaw for 3 to 4 hours. Puff pastry can also be deep-frozen. It takes only 1-2 hours at room temperature or 5-6 hours at refrigeration temperature to thaw it.
The yeast dough has a shelf life of 2 to 3 months, and the crumbly butter dough - one to two months.
