Length Of Time For A Decorated Cake
Decorating By candyladyhelen Updated 23 Sep 2006 , 3:32am by candyladyhelen
I was visiting my son, DIL & new baby grandson last week in PA. I made the Christening cake & had to bake it, freeze it, then I took it out on Thurs. to decorate it for the party on Sunday. I was thinking, wow, we may not be able to eat this cake, it's been out so long. BUT, not a problem! It was so moist, so good & got lots of compliments. I use box mixes & it's sealed all the way on the bottom. So now I know!
Yeah, but where's the pics?!??! I LOVE looking at your cakes...I'd love to see what your Christening cake looks like.
Good to know that Thursay-Sunday is no problem!!
I think the buttercream seals in the freshness. Your cakes are awesome! Great to meet some more Tarheels!
I made a cake on Tuesday, finished it up tues. night it was picked up Wednesday morning and they didn't eat it until Sat. and the same thing....everyone remarked how moist and delicious it was!! I think if it's not cut it stays fresh for days and days!
I have a question...
I am decorating cakes today for tomorrow. One of them will have the Mock Twinkie filling in it. The recipe has 1 cup of milk that is cooked with flour to make a paste as the base for this fluffy filling. Does this cake need to be refridgerated? Or would it hold up since the milk is cooked and the recipe has sugar in it and it will be consumed within 24 hours?
Littlebigmomma,
You can leave that filling out. My mother used to make this filling - actually we call it Gob icicng and she would make like 15 dozen gobs, and hide them in a tall cupboard so we couldn't get to them. They didn't last long, but they def. lasted longer than 48 hours plus! That filling is soooo good!!
Good to know. I defrosted 2 9 " round layers I've had in the freezer yesterday and frosted it. Tonight is decorating and we won't eat it until after dinner tomorrow night and I was wondering if it will be OK. Sounds like it should be fine based on all of your experiences (filling is BC so I'm OK there too).
Charb31,
Thank you so much for your help. It's the first time I've made it and you're right it is very good. I was so busy making frostings and fillings I forgot to eat lunch. Guess I could just say I licked bowls for lunch.
Again, thanks!
hey, speaking about freezing and frosting, can you put into the cooler a cake covered in fondant?and if the feeling is made of whipped cream and some frsh fruit do i need to put them in the cooler also or just leave them in room temperature? how long do you think this kind of feeling last? Sorry for my so dumb questions
Any answer will be greatly appreciated..
