does anyone know how to freeze unfrosted and frosted cakes for later use. I want to make my wedding cake this week but my wedding isnt until june 27 in salem oregon and thats a 8 hour drive away. I cant find instructions anywhere on how to do this. I will frost the cake the day before the wedding but it cant be in the cooler so it will have to stay in a box until the next day. Any idea's on how to do this?
I wish I know how to find and link all the posts there are on doing this but since I can't here's the short version.
Bake cake; cool just until warm; wrap in plastic wrap - 2 or 3 layers of it OR one then place in plastic bag to freeze.
If you'd rather, bake, cool completely, fill (if filling is freezable - no fresh fruit) and ice them but don't wrap them......instead place in freezer for several hours (until hard), then wrap as above.
For UNiced cakes, when ready to work on them allow to thaw at room temp - best overnight or from early a.m. to afternoon. Exactly how long it takes depends on the size of the cake.
If you have filled & iced the tier, UNwrap and thaw at room temp - again, time depends on size.
To transport place in cake box (or similar) and place that in plastic bag. Keep as cool as possible.......keep Air Conditioning on in car etc.
Hope that is understandable and what you wanted to know ![]()
