How is the wrapping inside? I love Walker's Shortbread but I'm worried they'll get stale before I finish the tin!

There are several layers and each is individually wrapped. They stay fresh for a while. I do not remember how long it took for me to finish them but I am alone and never ate more than 2 at a time and not everyday so it took fairly long.

Each layer of the tin is separately wrapped to keep fresh. I had no problem with staleness.

Inside the cookies are wrapped in sections for freshness. They are not loose inside the tin.

There is an inner seal that separates the cookies from the metal tin.These a so very, very good. I am sure you fill finish them before they get stale. :-)

I have never had a stale walkers cookie and I've eaten them for years!!!!!!!! Don't hesitate to buy them in the tin. Also go on line for recipes to make shortbread cookies. My family is still in Scotland so I know what's good

This was a gift for my mother and she loved them. You can take them out and use zip lock bags to keep them fresh

My recollection is that the various sections were individually wrapped with 5-6 cookies in each section. I would not swear that my memory is accurate, but I am sure that there was no problem with staleness. Of course, they are so good that they didn't last long enough to get stale! Hope you enjoy them.

We've always eaten them so quickly they never get stale.......If you are still worried, free some of them in Ziplock bag.

We have kept these tins for many months and they do not seem to get stale. There are 4 individually wrapped trays inside the tin. We store them at cool room temperature.

These cookies were so stuck together I couldn't serve them. I put them in the fridge to unsick them but it didn't work. I think the packaging was not air tight and that might have been the problem...I reccommend another brand sealed in a tin.

I agree totally. I believe the added fats and oils are to make it less dry. I have tried several biscuit recipes and all are dry and dense. I tried the "yeast roll" and it came out EXACTLY like a biscuit. So far all I tried tasted exactly the same....even the cheddar biscuits. Not happy with the product.

The one that I ordered in mid November were very fresh. They were also well packaged with hardly any biscuit broken inside the roll. The service offered from Amazon worked out well.

Maureen, I bought A total of 20 tins in the past two years, everyone I bought them for talks and talks on how good they are, and how they can buy them. We never had a problem with them stale or old.

Well the bars just don't last long enough that I've ever paid attention but I THINK I saw a date today, by chance and that it was sometime in 2014. I KNOW I've had them sit around a looooooong time buried in my backpack & they've never tasted bad to me. Definitely some other snacks I get that I've learned not to buy too many at once, despite packaging, but these seem to weather my abuse and neglect well :-).

definitely buy from the Aretha Frankenstein seller, not the re seller. I think it's cheaper and probably fresher. I would ask them before you bought, but I have some waffle mix that I bought a few months ago, and it expires in November

The last bun in the middle would be funky. Make the whole recipe and freeze the rest. As a side note, it has been our experience that home made bread lasts longer. Cool it as normal and store it in your fridge.

Suggest freezing the cookie first and then packaging it in a food saver vacuum bag. Send in the bubble mailer. R

This marzipan has excellent quality and taste. I opened the plastic container about 1 month ago, and made cake toppers for my son's birthday, I put the used and unused portions back in fridge. His birthday was yesterday. We all tasted the marzipan toppers. They are still fresh just as the unused portion although they had been sitting in the fridge for min. 3 weeks uncovered. The unused portion is just as fresh as 1 month ago, when I got it and opened it. I kept it in the fridge all the time, but I don't think it's necessary. I think either in the fridge or at room temperature it's still going to be fresh for several more months. This marzipan has excellent quality and taste.

I leave them wrapped. I do notice that, in the old movies, they used to put the bread in loose. Not sure about the answer.

Um.. we finished these last Christmas; My fiance is the one who ate most of ;em =) He thinks in the tin's two layers there were between 100-150 individual cookies. He says the amount was fair because he loved them. I think he's planning on us getting more this year.

Mine is in a large canister, have had it for a year, and the bread today was just as good as the bread I made last year when the can was new. Use it in everything cakes, cookies, breads, biscuits, pie crust...every thing last longer.

I doubt it as once baked the product will probably break up, better to shape them before cooking. Or you could try flattening the dough into a baking tray and them making a grove with a blunt object the shortbread should break easily along the indentations. I hope this helps you

Mine didn't come with insulation. I didn't have a melting problem, but I am not sure about at the height of summer, particularly shipping to HI. FYI, I prefer now to order from another vendor in GB, as the larger volume didn't taste quite right. A bit dried out, or stale. Kind of woody. The lot I got had Arabic writing on, so I am not sure if they were a particular recipe for shipping to that area. The Flakes from GB are sold in lots of 6, and are occasionally the smaller size, but taste just right.
