Can someone give me good tips on how to properly store cakes so they don't dry out or taste funny? I'm talking about decorated, or half-way decorated cakes...ones that won't fit in a cake saver. I know it's a silly question, but i'm totally self taught and never learned. I don't have a seperate fridge for my cakes...just my family fridge. After years of making family/friends cakes, I'm starting to sell them and they usually take about a day and a half. Please help.....sorry it's such a silly question.

If you don't have something large enough to place the cake in, you can just cover it with some plastic wrap until you're ready to finish the decorating.

I never refrigerate any of my cakes, unless you're using a perishable filling or icing there isn't really a need to refrigerate them.
