I decorated a cake basket weave with lavendar flowers on top. Has chocolate filling. (eggs) I refridgerated it. Will the colors bleed when I take this out and the people serve it?

Thank you

I sure don't know . . . but maybe someone else can help if I bump . . . .

I sure hope the color doesn't run. It sounds like a beautiful cake.

No worries! I always refrigerate my cakes before delivering them and I have never had a problem. Whipped topping will bleed slightly but I don't think that anyone but me ever noticed that. Sounds like a beautiful cake.

No, the colors won't bleed. Humidity will be the cause. It's October so things should be better.

My cakes are always refrigerated and I've never had problems with the colors bleeding.

If you cook with eggs and cream in your filling, and again this is all cooked, do you have to refridgerate?

Thank you for all of you help. I feel much better. I'm at work and the cake goes out tonight. I didn't want to have to worry all day. I owe you guys!!!!

I would refrigerate. I refrigerate all of my cakes. It keeps them fresh, I also use IMB, and it stays more stable for transporting.

Ok, help me. What is IMB? I'm still learning the computer lingo. Also,
can you tell me what FBCT is?

Thank you
