can i freeze pastry short-term?

[lucysmam]

made way too much making jam & coconut tarts this morning & don't really want to waste it

Yes you can ,I wrap mine in clingfilm, stick it in the freezer then you get it out a few hours before I need it.

Dry pastry mix(before you add the wet ingredients) keeps for ages in the fridge in a tub too.

if you have enough tins, roll out into a pie tin or something then you can use it straight from the freezer

fab! thank-you

good idea about the tins cranmorefifi but no space left really for tins, am going to struggle as it is but don't want to waste it.
