Comment conserver correctement vos cookies

How to properly store your cookies

Our cookies are handmade and preservative-free. Their freshness and texture are an integral part of their quality. Here are our recommendations for storing them properly and fully enjoying their flavor and texture.

Cookies baked the same day they are shipped

All our cookies are baked the same day they are sent . After controlled cooling, they are packaged a few minutes before shipping .
We do not use any artificial preservatives.

Shelf life: 5 days after cooking

Cookies can be stored for 5 days after their baking date , indicated on the packaging.
After this time, their texture and taste may deteriorate. For a perfect tasting cookie, your cookie should have a slightly crispy surface, a soft , dense and sometimes moist interior — depending on the filling and ingredients.

“I’m not going to eat them right away”: fridge or freezer?

Refrigeration is not recommended : it changes the texture of the cookie and dries it out.

The freezer is recommended for long-term storage ( up to 3 months ).
Before freezing:

  • Wrap each cookie in plastic wrap or
  • Use a zip bag , removing as much air as possible.

This prevents the formation of ice crystals , loss of softness , and above all the absorption of freezer odors .

Avoid freezing cookies near strong-smelling foods (garlic, onion, aged cheeses): the fat in the cookie can absorb these aromas.

Defrosting : Leave at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours .

How to regenerate your cookies (restore their texture)

To restore the original texture after several days or freezing, there are two methods:

  • Microwave : 10 to 15 seconds on medium/high power to reactivate the softness of the center
  • Oven : Preheat to 150°C and heat for 3 to 5 minutes. This restores a slight crispiness to the outside while maintaining a soft center.

Tip : Do not exceed 160°C to avoid a second cooking.

Matcha may oxidize over time and take on a darker or grayish tint.
This is a purely visual phenomenon, with no impact on taste or quality.

Coming soon to the blog: “raw inside”? Let’s talk about it.

New York style is often associated with an interior deemed “undercooked.” In reality, this dense, melting, almost raw texture… is intentional . It’s a signature.
At Dooki, it is the result of precise technical choices: temperature, cooking time, proportion of ingredients.

We'll be publishing a dedicated article on this topic soon. Follow our blog or Instagram account to make sure you don't miss a thing.
