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.
