How to store, slice, and savor your luxurious shortbread creations
Freeze & savor later:
- Your shortbread may be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks or frozen for up to 6 months.
- Store it in an airtight container to maintain that perfect texture.
- Make sure to bring frozen shortbreads back to room temperature prior to slicing.
Best served:
Always serve your shortbread at room temperature for the ultimate experience, and never cut your shortbread cold—it's all about that room temp magic!
Prep:
- All shortbreads should be sliced at room temperature.
- For chocolate-topped shortbreads, we recommend very lightly chilling for 5-8 minutes in the freezer and removing it from the tin cold to keep that rich chocolate topping intact. Then bring to room temperature to slice.
Tin talk:
For easy slicing and serving, we recommend removing your shortbread from the tin.
Loosen up:
To do so, first take a knife or an offset spatula to score around the edge of the tin to separate the shortbread and filling from the edges of the tin.
Pop & slice:
Gently expand the corners of the tin and pop out the shortbread.
Slice right:
- On a flat surface, while using a cutting board, use a sharp knife and slowly slice your shortbread.
- Each shortbread tray can serve 8 regular slices or 16+ bite-sized pieces.
Serve and enjoy!
