If you want to store homemade cookies and biscuits for a long time without losing their taste, texture and freshness, then store them in airtight containers or glass jars immediately after they attain normal room temperature. Airtight containers help seal out moisture and air, preserving the crispness and flavor of the baked treats for a longer period. Make sure the lids are tightly sealed to prevent any air from getting in.

Yes, this may sound strange, but freezing or refrigerating the baked treats actually works like magic.
Place them in an airtight container or freezer bag, and store them in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for several weeks. Before serving, allow them to come to room temperature naturally to avoid condensation forming on the surface.

Place a couple of silica gel packs or a small bowl of uncooked rice at the bottom of the storage container before adding your cookies. Silica gel packs help absorb moisture, while rice acts as a natural desiccant, keeping the environment dry and preventing the cookies from becoming soggy.

Place a slice of fresh bread in the container alongside your cookies or biscuits. The bread acts as a moisture absorber, drawing any excess moisture away from the treats and helping to maintain their texture and crispiness. Replace the bread slice as needed when it becomes stale or moist.

If stacking cookies or biscuits in a container, place a sheet of parchment paper between each layer to create a barrier. This prevents them from sticking together and maintains their individual crispness. Ensure the container is not overcrowded to allow proper air circulation.
