Does anyone freeze carrot cake? I have 2 large carrot cakes due friday and I want to make them ahead of time but am not sure on the freezing of carrot cakes. And if I can freeze them - how long do you let them sit out before decorating them?
Thanks!!!

I freeze all my cakes, carrot included. I wrap them while they're still warm and that holds a some of the steam in, keeping them moist. Not that this is really a problem with carrot cake ![]()
I usually take mine out to thaw 4 to 6 hours before decorating. Make sure you let them thaw while they're still in the plastic or all that lovely moisture will evaporate instead of staying in the cake.
Absolutely! I have frozen my carrot cake without any problems at all! I have tried two different ways: 1. wrap each cake layer in foil and then put into a zipper type bag. When you are ready to thaw, just bring the cakes to room temperature while still wrapped.
2. I have also stacked and completely frosted my carrot cake, boxed it and then put in the freezer. I thawed in the fridge overnight.
Both way worked just great!!
Thank you guys so much - I guess it is time to get baking!!! ![]()
