Baklava is best enjoyed immediately after preparation.
There are types of baklava that can be stored for up to 2 months. Saving it in the refrigerator or in another cool place where the sun's rays do not reach. It is important that the packaging for the sweets is airtight. The optimal temperature for storing baklava is 18 °C and air humidity is no more than 75 percent.
