Joseph’s Bakery products can be frozen for up to 8 months and will still thaw out with the same fresh taste! To best maintain the quality of our products, please follow the instructions below when freezing and thawing your pitas, lavash, or wraps.

Freezing:

When you get home with your bread, remove what you will use for the next couple of days and freeze the remaining for optimal freshness. They can be frozen in the package they come in, and you do not need to separate each piece of bread.

Thawing:

Thaw your frozen bread by leaving it on the countertop at room temperature until thawed. You can thaw the bread piece by piece, or you can thaw the whole package at once. You don’t have to remove it from the packaging; it can be thawed in the bag it comes in. Once the product is completely thawed, it is best not to re-freeze it, as this will reduce the product quality.

After thawing, our products will stay fresh at room temperature for between 10-30 days. Please see this article for more information about product shelf lives!

Our product weights may have slight variances but are typically the same weight listed on our product packaging.  

If you have questions or concerns about the size of the products you received, feel free to contact us and we are happy to look into the matter for you!

Yes, all of our products are leavened. While our wraps do not contain yeast, they do contain other leavening agents including baking powder and baking soda.

Joseph’s products are made in a peanut- and tree-nut-free facility.

Yes! Our bakery has been certified kosher for over 35 years. Look for the kosher symbol on our packaging!

Nope, all Joseph’s products have zero trans fats! Joseph’s Bakery is proud to offer fresh pitas, wraps and flatbreads with zero trans fat. Our zero trans fat content won’t affect the quality or performance of your Joseph’s Bakery products a bit.

Joseph’s has a line of Gluten Free Wraps but our other products do contain gluten.

Yes, and it will thaw out with the same fresh taste! If you won’t be eating the bread within 10–12 days after purchase, freeze it, as close to fresh as possible, to maintain optimal freshness. If, for instance, you buy two bags and will only be using one now, freeze the second bag the day you purchase it. Both our Pita Bread and Lavash can be frozen for up to 8 months, and they will still thaw out with the same fresh taste!

Our products typically stay fresh for 16-30 days at room temperature; however, it’s best to freeze them if you’re planning to enjoy the bread after that date. See below for specific product shelf lives.
