Defrosting cooked puff pastry tarts

Hello all :)

I have made some stilton and swede puff pastry tarts and frozen them cos the recipe said I could. However, it gave no advice on how to defrost them, or reheat them.

Can I just shove them in the oven for half an hour, or do I have to defrost them at room temperature first? I don't want the tarts to go soggy, especially as I'm serving it to my mother-in-law as she's babysitting for me tonight...:rotfl:

Thank you :):)

    Hi there

    I reheated frozen (cooked) puff pastry chicken & ham pasties in foil.

    Like you I thought they would go soggy if I defrosted them LOL.

    It worked quite well, although they were better cooked fresh, but they were made with frozen puff pastry so no choice but to freeze already cooked.

    Wondered if they would be better if I had removed the foil for little while at the end of reheating. Will try it next time.


    Hope yours work out ok
