Caring for your bread

For best results, eat immediately!

We recommend storing your ACE bread at room temperature in a paper or cloth bread bag. Putting it in the refrigerator isn’t a good idea because that will turn your bread stale faster. ACE bread freezes well and will keep several weeks if tightly wrapped in a freezer-quality plastic bag.

Defrosting your bread

To defrost frozen bread, remove from the freezer, and leaving in freezer bag, let stand at room temperature for three to four hours. Or, wrap frozen loaf in aluminium foil and warm in oven preheated to 165° C (325° F) for 20 to 30 minutes.

Crisping the crust

Place thawed, unwrapped bread in a 200° C (400° F) oven for five minutes before serving. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting. This method also restores the bread’s crust on humid days.

Humidity alert

During the summer months, humidity can cause ACE bread to lose its crispness. Please place your bread in a 200° C (400° F) oven for five to eight minutes. Remove from the oven and let it rest for five to 10 minutes before cutting.
