2. You Can Also Freeze Costco Bakery’s Croissants
Giant muffins aren’t the only Costco bakery goods you can pop in the freezer. According to a Reddit thread on ways you can save money at Costco, the butter croissants are also freezer-friendly.
However, unlike the muffins we’ve talked about, which defrost well in the microwave, croissants don’t go well with microwaving. That’s because they may end up tough and chewy, and what’s the point in eating a croissant if it no longer has the texture and delicious flavor of a croissant pulled straight out of the package?
The solution one of the Redditors offered is to defrost the Costco croissants in the oven. He said he throws them in the oven, turns it on to 350ºF, and by the time it’s preheated, the bakery goods are delicious and crispy.
What’s great about this hack is that you don’t have to wait for a big work event or family gathering to have an excuse to buy the Costco 12-pack. So, go ahead and purchase those fluky, delicious croissants in bulk. Your freezer will make sure you can enjoy them at your own pace.
