Does cheese bread need refrigeration? If it has a moist cheese filling, refrigerate it within two hours; bread with dried fruit baked into the dough can usually stay covered on the counter. For longer storage, see [how to freeze bread](/how-to-freeze-bread/) and [how long bread lasts](/how-long-does-bread-last/).
Essential Concepts
Moist filling: refrigerate. Dried fruit in dough: counter storage.
