I havent made a lot of cakes that required refrigeration. Yesterday I made a cake and when I took it out of the fridge a TON of condensation started to form. It was REALLY humid and rainy here yesterday, but I was wondering if this was a common occurance??
I had the same thing happen to me this week. My fondant and butter cream were sweating after I took the cake out of the frig. I don't know how to not make this happen. But I have to travel 2 hours with a wedding cake on Saturday and I know it's going to sweat. I don't think there is anything we can do about it. sunflowerfreak
yes this will happen, to lessen the effect you need to keep the temp change to a gradual thing. Personally i take the cake out of the fridge, place in a box (will insolate it some and slow the condensation on the cake alittle) then it sits in the AC which is lowered just for this (about 68 degrees) Then the cake is wisked right into the AC car that is turned up and the car is as cold as it can get.
The same thing happened to me with my buttercream cake. I thought this only happened to fondant that had been refrigerated!
Yup all good answers! It is because of your enviroment. If you are in a humid enviroment the cake will sweat. The cake has been in the cold fridge and when it comes out into a humid enviroment it will sweat. Sorta like a glass of ice water-the outside sweats because it is warm.
How do insolate your cake box,with what?Quote by @%username% on %date%
