Can you refrigerate baked puff pastry or should you leave it at room temperature?

Baked puff pastry can be refrigerated to extend its freshness, but it's best to consume it at room temperature for optimal texture. If you refrigerate it, place it in an airtight container to prevent it from becoming soggy. When ready to eat, you can reheat it in the oven to restore its flaky texture. For short-term storage, leaving it at room temperature is also fine for a day or two.
