Hi all, I am putting together my first cake for someone other than close friends and family and had a few questions that I would love answers to. The cake is chocolate (2 -10 inch and 2-6 inch rounds) I plan on torting the layers at least once. The filling is going to be the raspberry kauhula cream that I found here at CC with buttercream frosting VIVAed - Let me tell you that robins egg blue is a brain teaser of a color javascript:emoticon('icon_confused.gif').
Anyway my questions are as follows:
1. do I/should I keep the cake in the fridge? I plan on torting, filling and crumb coating today (the bridal shower is Saturday morn) and putting it in the fridge (for tonight) and finishing the final BC and decorating Friday. should it stay in the fridge Friday til Saturday morning? I know a definate newbie question.

2. Will this be enough cake for a party of about 40?

I know I should just breathe and go for it right?

Sorry I knew there was another question in my brain. What about a light BC in the layers under the cream filling? Would that be necessary/needed? Thanks to all that can help.

Not sure on the servings but with the filling, I would say keep it refrigerated, as long as you are crumb coating today and not just putting the layers in "bare" or they would dry out. Good luck! Sounds yummy!

As far as the servings. That will be enough cake for 40.

Okay thanks for the help. I will go ahead and keep it in the fridge. If I can work the camera, I'll take pictures and post them.
