I just took out my cakes for the 3rd and final wilton's 3 class. I had to freeze them b/c I could not make them today and get it all in. Now that I defrosted them in the fridge and unwrapped them they seem very moist. Should I let them "dryout" a bit first before the crumb coat?

Thanks for the help!

You could try crumb coating and if it isn't working, let it sit out a while.

This might help for future cakes - I defrost mine sitting out on the counter (still wrapped in plastic wrap). I think that helps with the condensation.

I would ice them immediately after you pull them from the freezer, that locks in the moisture and the crumbs and the cake will be scrumptious!!!

i LOVE the taste of cakes that have been frozen.....in fact I make a point to freeze all of my cakes (if time allows) at least over night.....they always come out so much more moist and delicious!!
