How Far In Advance Do You Start Baking...
Decorating By MessiET Updated 29 Jun 2007 , 2:00pm by kerri729
General schedule is bake Thurs, ice and decorate Friday. If I can fit it in the schedule, I will bake ahead, but during busy season when I have weddings/caterings every weekend, there is no time slot open to do "do-ahead" baking. I prefer working with cakes that are partially frozen (easier to handle) so even on events that I can bake/ice/decorate same day, I will put them in the freezer for awhile.
I have a big cake due at the end of July, and I will start baking next weekend, the 7th..........I always freeze my cakes while still warm, I work full time, coach softball, have 4 kids and 3 step children, play Texas Hold'em once a week, sing in the church choir, etc........so for me I have to bake on weekends when I have free time ( 
) and freeze. I make my bc probably starting the weekend before the event, then take cakes out of freezer on the thursday before and start decoration Thursday evening and finish Friday evening.
