    So..... DO i have to leave it to prove longer or just the same? Just because it was in the fridge, i want to double check if anyone can help. Looked up vids of shaping a loaf so hopefully no more submarine bread

    Don't stress yourself Marmalize :D I'm sure it will be fine! If you followed the recipe off the pack (and not your normal method) I'm sure it will be fine. :money:
