i'm an organized neat freak...so i throw everything out at like 3-6 months...and then go buy everything again...i can't imagine having a cake for that long...i can't even imagine saving the top of a wedding cake for that long...either eat it...or toss it...

Well im not that well organized, so i dont clean my freezer that often which im not proud of it but... anyways i saved my wedding cake for my year anniversary and was better than the day of the wedding. Im not saying i could eat a 32yr cake, but God I think the oldest thing in my freezer right now is a friends ice cream left there like 3 months, last summer popsicles, fruit icecream from i dont know when .....God im going to clean my freezer TODAY!!! jajjajajja thanks girls you guys just push me to cleaning TODAY!!!

Wow! I can't even bring myself to eat cake that has been frozen a few days much less 32 yrs.

I am sorry this cake did not develop legs and attempt to escape? Poor thing--dig a hole in the back yard and bury it! My grandma's freezer was full of 30 year old cabbage that she froze one year we threw it out container and all.

Well, I can honestly say the oldest thing in my refrigerator is the top of my son's reception cake (they were married in California in 199 we gave them a formal reception at the church here in KY. I DO clean my freezer out about every 2 years....but.....STILL can't MAKE myself throw it away! YES!!! I am turning into a WEIRDO GRAN B! LOL

RE: Frozen bird: THAT was a HOOT! Here's another. My dear friend (now deceased) loved her dog more than anything. "Vicky" became very sick and had to go to the doggie hospital. During this time my friend and her husband went on vacation and left their daughter in charge. "Vicky" died and the vet "kept her on ice" until friend returned from vacation and picked up the dog. "Vicky" had been "frozen in state" and before burying her in the back yard my friend allowed her to "thaw a bit" and then POSED HER FOR PICTURES!!! I almost died myself when I saw this! But, she loved her so much and these pictures meant the world to her.

I enjoyed this thread immensely! Made my rainy Saturday a bit more sunny!

I could so see my MIL doing that with a cake. She too believes if it is in the freezer then it is good from now until the end of time. Ewww... so gross!!!!!!!!

Oh, please just take a picture of the cake,,,it will last longer! Imagine someone wanted a midnight snack and unknowingly took a piece of that cake? It reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when Elaine ate the cake from Henry VIII'th's(?) wedding....
