Hi Sandy! As far as keeping them in the fridge for a few hours, that should be fine. Just keep an eye on them to make sure they aren't getting too puffy too fast, otherwise, you'll need to bake them pronto so they don't overproof and collapse. Wrap them loosely but well so they don't try out — a trash bag is perfect for this. As for freezing, it's not ideal, but you can try freezing them shaped, let them thaw in the fridge overnight, then on the counter until they're puffy. Because activated yeast always dies in the freezer, they won't rise as much, but if they're frozen for a week or less they should still be wonderful! Annabelle@KAF
