MAYBE some chocolate? Are you nuts? At the very minimum you need a bag of Nestle Semi-Sweet Morsels! :)

Mmmm...Morsels...Mmmmm!

“How do you store baked goods in bulk?”

I thought that was dumb, too! The ‘author’ has ample freezer space, I guess?

However, I love my ‘Day Old Bakery Rack’ and my ‘Magic Meat Counter’ at my local grocer. Amazingly, I always seem to be the only person shopping those parts of the store! There were New York Strip steaks in the cooler tonight for $12 for 4 of them (nicely trimmed, but with enough fat on them to make it worthwhile) and I found two pre-made pizza crusts for 50-cents each in the Day Old Bakery.

The pizza crusts are in my freezer as I type...I still have LAST seasons venison to use up, so no steaks for me right now. :)

Beer, more nutritious than bread, and lower storage cost’s!

Frozen dough makes sense, but not frozen baked goods.

Those are great deals you got on the steaks and pizza crusts.

Make a venison bourguignon, with them last bits.

I use reconstituted dry milk in cooking/baking. No noticeable difference, IMHO.

WTSHTF, I’m going to be hard-pressed to give up my yummy flavored liquid coffee creamers. But somehow I think I’ll adapt to my ‘New Reality’ pretty darn quick, LOL!

I am kicking myself for not getting a crate when they were giving them away.

They had the armorers logs and all in the case.

They can be used for getting Venison if need be.

RE: “How do you store baked goods in bulk?

If I dont use a fresh loaf in 4 days its going to go moldy.”

*******************

Freeze baked goods — they’ll stay good for a very long time if tightly wrapped. Muffins of all types, breads, Danish, you name it. All will last months in the freezer.

Wisconsin IS pretty cool. (And sometimes downright FRIGID, LOL!)

If we can just rid ourselves of the current Liberal Cancer, we’ll be A-OK. So far, in 2010, so good! :)

I generally dont eat the cake type baked goods that are good for freezing.

I was thinking along the lines of fresh baked french bread, pumpernickel and stuff.

I dont think that would do to well in the deep freeze.

You folks made a good start Nov 2.
Harley opening a plant in India may wake a few folks further up.

Choc chips will do. Many times that’s all we have. I like them combined with Butterscotch chips.
