Our freezer always has baguettes and loaves of sliced bread in it. Thaw the sliced bread, and it's good as new. And the baguettes are wrapped in tin foil and get warmed in the convection oven at 170F. They come out as if they were freshly baked. Any difference from fresh is negligible. It tastes much better than if it was on the counter for a day.

Once frozen, in my opinion, the bread is only good for making croutons. > the baguettes are wrapped in tin foil and get warmed in the convection oven at 170F. They come out as if they were freshly baked This is true (whether or not the bread was frozen), yes.
- aceazzameen 2y agoAs a data point, we only ever have whole wheat sliced bread. I don't think we ever tried white bread. Sometimes from a bakery, other times various brands from the grocery store. It never comes out stale.
- JohnFen 2y agoThat probably matters a lot. Most of the bread I eat is sourdough or (occasionally) white, and is bread I bake myself. Whole wheat is not to my taste, so I don't make it. That I make it myself is also an important data point. It means that the vast majority of the bread I eat was baked in the 48 hours (max), so is at the peak of freshness. I really notice when bread is past that peak! When it happens to my bread, I make croutons or bread crumbs out of it.
