I have two large cupcake cakes for next week, one for Tue and one on wed. They both will cake FBCT on them, my question is what can I do early? Will cupcakes freeze ok? Can I do the FBCT and leave them in the freezer for a week? How can I avoid the frozen ice crystals that can get on things in the freezer? Sorry I know this is a lot of questions, but thanks to anyone who can help! Keli

Anyone?

I don't know about the icing, but I can't think of a reason why the cupcakes wouldn't freeze well. I freeze cakes often and never have an issue.

cupcakes will freez pretty well if you wrap each of them indifidually. just make sure that when you let it come back to room temp not to remove the plastic until it's thawed...otherwise the condensation will get on the cupcakes.

and as long as you keep the fbct covered...like with the plastic wrap touching the transfer, i'm pretty sure it'll keep just fine.

good luck!

I've had a FBCT transfer in the freezer for up to a week. just make sure you wrap it AFTER its frozen. I once wrapped it too early and it was a big disaster!

I freeze BCT's all the time. I just lay the BCT (which is adhered to the wax paper) on a thin sheet of cardboard and slip it into a ziplock bag.

For freezing cc's, I freeze them solid on a cookie sheet and once frozen place in a large freezer bag.
