Store rusks in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their crisp texture and prevent them from becoming stale. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. For extended shelf life, you can freeze rusks in a sealed bag or container, ensuring they are completely dry before freezing. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
