I have a family friend that is insiting that I make her cake..I am going out of town. She is begging me to decorate it and then she will freeze in for 2 weeks...
Will this work? How does the BC hold up when it unfreezes..also, there are some gold luster dust things on it...Can those be frozen?
Thanks
Indydebi always has such good points. Whenever I see her post, I click that right away. I don't know and if noone else does, then I am going to try a sample one and test it out. Please post back and let us know if she does it and how it goes.
Maybe with this bump someone else will have an answer.
Yes, you can freeze a decorated cake. Put it in the box and wrap the box in double layers saran wrap and double layer of heavy duty foil. When she defrosts it, tell her not to unwrap it until it is completely thawed. All the condensation should collect on the outside of the box and not on the cake.
By the way, I froze the top tier of my wedding cake for a year and we ate it on our first anniversary and it tasted great! Some of the borders were falling off but that was just because it had been knocked around in the freezer for a year! : )
I have frozen a few decorated cakes. I used the instructions from baking 911. I put the decorated cake in the freezer naked and let it freeze first. Then take it out and wrap in 2 layers of saran wrap and 2 layers of heavy duty foil. To unthaw leave cake wrapped until it is thawed. Then carefully remove wrapping. This is not something I normally do, but sometimes it can't be helped.
how about cakes with the photo on it. They want me to do a baby shower cake and want the sonogram pic of the baby on the cake. Think that would be ok?

I agree with the wrapping mentioned, I would freeze first then wrap, but you need to thaw slowly,so it doesn't weep & colors won't bleed. I suggest taking from freezer to frig. for at least a day or two, depending on the size, then from frig to room temp.
I don't know how the luster dust will do, I haven,t tried that. Good Luck!
