Ygerna Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 and if you can what are the 'rules'. I've got homemade mincemeat (delias and its delia-icious ) and will be making my own pastry too. Can I bake and then Freeze, or do I Freeze and then bake OR, can they not be frozen at all and I just need to squeeze getting them done into an already busy end of the week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I bake mine and then freeze them. Took them out of the freezer yesterday and they are fine. Just cover well to avoid risk of frost damage. Not that they are in the freezer long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Same here, I bake and wrap them in foil before I freeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerryegg Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 They freeze well. It's also nice to defrost one quickly in the m/w if you fancy a treat. i also freeze jam tarts and fruit cake cut in slices to save having stale cake. ( Not usually a problem! ).

Chucky Mama Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I froze some today and did the same last year and they were fine. I made Delia's mincemeat too this year and it is fab So different from shop bought, I've never go back to buying it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I freeze them either way and they're always fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
