Recipe Notes

TIPS FOR FREEZING SLICES

  • you can freeze the slices as a whole or cut into individual pieces;
  • wrap the slice in plastic wrap then wrap in a layer of foil and place into an airtight container in the freezer (these 3 steps will keep your slices tasting great!);
  • slices with a soft filling (or cheesecakes) don’t tend to freeze well;
  • slices kept in the freezer will taste best within the first month, but can last longer.
