I'm a newbie and am going to try the WASC recipe (first time) and I wanted to make them as cupcakes. I noticed that many of you freeze your bare cakes before you frost them to ensure moistness. Do you do this with cupcakes? Will that make the paper too soggy to be presentable? icon_smile.gif

Nope...At least I have never had them get soggy from freeze and thaw. Good luck!

Do you use a standard paper liner. I've frozen cuppies once and the paper was very soggy when they came to room temperature. Was wondering if I used a foil liner it would be better?

I had the same problem with soggy liners when I stored them for a day in an airtight container. I'm thinking maybe breaking the airtight seal to defrost them?

I use regular paper liners, wrap in cling wrap and freeze. I allow them to come to room temperature before I unwrap them and they taste fresh and not soggy at all.

When I defrost, I unseal them but leave them covered. No soggy wrappers.
