For Long Term Storage (more than three weeks): Wrap bread tightly in plastic wrap. Then, wrap it again in foil or freezer paper. Write the date on your bread before sticking it in the freezer; then, try to use it within six months. For Rolls and Buns: Place them inside a freezer bag, and seal tightly.
For a longer shelf life, store bread in its original packaging in the refrigerator, as the cold of the refrigerator delays the growth of mould. Otherwise, if kept at room temperature, bread will usually last for between 5 and 7 days, depending on the amount of preservatives and temperature at which it is stored.ot only does the shelf life of your food depend on the way in which it has been stored at home; the way it has been handled, treated and stored before arriving at your local supermarket also plays a crucial role in how long your food will stay fresh.
