How Long Do Homemade Scones Last For?

Homemade Scones are best to be eaten within a day or two of being baked. Although you can eat them after those two days, we recommend you package them in a zip lock bag and store inside refrigerator. When your ready to eat them just microwave a few seconds. The self life of your scones refrigerated is about a week.

Can you freeze Scone Dough?

You can freeze your unbaked scones for up to to 3 months. When your ready to bake them, just remove the unbaked scones and place them onto a lined baking pan and thaw for one hour then place them in a pre-heated oven at 210°C (410°F) and bake for about 20-25 minutes.
