freshly

Moments ago, still

Freshly means recently or just now, emphasizing that something happened a short time ago: freshly baked bread, freshly cut grass, freshly painted walls.

The word often highlights newness or immediacy—a freshly made bed still shows crisp folds, freshly ground coffee hasn't lost its aroma.

Freshly squeezed juice came straight from the fruit, not a carton.
