There’s nothing quite like the smell of fresh-baked cookies, brownies, or muffins made from our Eat G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R. mixes. But what if you can’t (or shouldn’t!) eat the whole batch at once? Good news: you don’t have to. With a few simple storage tricks, you can keep your allergy-friendly treats fresh and delicious — ready to enjoy whenever the craving strikes.

Why Storage Matters

Because our mixes are free from gluten, dairy, and eggs, the baked goods they create can behave a little differently than traditional recipes. They may dry out or crumble more quickly. That’s why storing them properly makes all the difference — it helps preserve their texture, flavor, and freshness.

Short-Term Storage: Counter & Fridge

• Room Temperature: Most cookies, brownies, and quick breads stay fresh for 2–3 days in an airtight container. To prevent sticking, line the container with parchment paper.

• Refrigerator: For a little more time, move your baked goods into the fridge. When sealed tightly, they’ll keep for about a week.

Freezing for Long-Term Enjoyment

Want to bake ahead, prep for busy weeks, or save seasonal flavors for later? Freezing is the way to go.

Freezing Tips

• Let baked goods cool completely before freezing to avoid condensation and freezer burn.

• Wrap individually in plastic wrap or parchment paper to keep them from sticking together.

• Place wrapped items in a labeled freezer-safe bag or container, and press out as much air as possible.

Storage Times

• Cookies & Brownies: Up to 3 months

• Muffins & Quick Breads: Up to 2–3 months

• Frosted Items: Freeze them unfrosted when possible, then add frosting once thawed.

How to Thaw & Reheat

• Countertop: Unwrap and let thaw at room temperature for 1–2 hours.

• Oven Refresh: Warm muffins or brownies at 300°F for 5–10 minutes to bring back that “just baked” taste.

• Microwave: Heat for 15–20 seconds for a quick fix (just don’t overdo it!).

Pro Tip: Freeze the Dough or Batter

Instead of baking the whole batch, freeze cookie dough balls or portions of muffin batter. Place them on a baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer bag. That way, you’ll have ready-to-bake treats on demand — fresh from the oven, anytime.

Bake Once, Enjoy Often

Stocking your freezer with allergy-friendly baked goods makes life on an elimination diet easier — and sweeter. Whether you want a quick lunchbox treat or a cozy dessert after dinner, you’ll always have something safe and satisfying at your fingertips.

At Eat G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R., we believe everyone deserves to enjoy the simple joy of baked goods, without compromise. With these storage tips, your mixes can go even further, giving you comfort and convenience every time you bake.
