I am a hobby baker. I may make 1-2 cakes a month. What do you do with leftover batter? Can you freeze it? If so, for how long? Thanks

Yes you can freeze it. I've frozen it for weeks to a couple of months with no issues.

I am so glad I saw this thread - I just froze batter for the first time last week. When it comes time to use the batter, is it best to let it come to room temp or is slightly cold OK?

Thanks!

I think either would work. I've baked batter out of the fridge before with out letting it come to room temp.

left over batter...whats that?? LOL, am i the only one who likes to "lick the bowl" JJ icon_biggrin.gif it is better to let it come to back down to room temp, it will rise more level then and not have such a huge hill.

I bake it up in a small pan and make cake balls out of it and freeze them. I can never have enough cakeballs on hand!!
