Have a ? bout Cheryl's Cookies, first time purchaser

tropics21 · ‎05-02-2010

Ordered and received today a box of Cheryl's cookies. They are delicious. My question is how does one keep them for future use? I want them to taste as good as they are today, when they arrived. I ordered another box for shipping date 12/2 to give out two and a half weeks later, will they be stale just sitting in the box or should they put in the refrigerator, or the freezer if your not going to use them let's say for 10 days to two weeks?

They should be good for a couple of weeks but I always put them in the freezer. They defrost realy quickly when wanted and then they aren't out and staring at me and calling my name.

I remember from the QVC presentation, the vendor says to keep it in the freezer. Thaw overnight in the frige the night before you are to serve it.

I have kept mine in the refrigerator for two (2) weeks and they were fine. I have also frozen them, took out of the freezer, let them sit a while and they tasted the same as when I got them.

I agree that I would freeze them. It really doesn't take long at all for them to defrost.

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

Yes, freeze. If you're going to use them in just a few weeks after receipt, they'll taste the same once thawed. And they're each individually wrapped, so that helps retain the flavor. Even better, pop them in the microwave for a few seconds--they'll be even better warm!

This is what I do. An instruction sheet comes with the cookies. I put them in large zip lock bags in the freezer when I get them. I keep about three cookies out at a time.

I store in the freezer, and pull them out as we want them.

Thanks all, just wondering, after they dethaw, do they taste as fresh as when they first arrived? Secon question, if not eaten with 3-4 days, freeze, is that correct?
