Serve warm or at room temperature. Pair well with coffee, tea, or milk. Can also be stored at room temperature for a day or in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freeze baked danishes for up to a month, then thaw and warm before serving. Keep puff pastry cold to ensure flakiness and don't overfill to prevent leaks during baking.
