I made a WASC cake and decorated it with Edna's cream cheese crusting buttercream. I decorated it with gum paste flowers and it's as done as it's gonna be. It's my very first cake, and I don't know what to do with it overnight. Do I put it in the fridge? How do I cover it for the fridge? Do I leave it on the counter? Will the gum paste flowers be soft by morning from their contact with the buttercream? Please, if anyone knows what I should do with this cake overnight, please let me know! Thanks in advance...
if the cake is due in the morning... I would leave it out in a air conditioned room... if it's due b the afternoon... then I would fridge it....
I had a huuuge cake due that did not fit in my fridge...so I place it right next to the A/C vent overnight and it was perfectly fine the next day...

Well, I have it in a box in the fridge. there was no lid for the box, so I taped Viva paper towels on for a lid. I am praying these gum paste flowers don't melt, but if they do, I'm screwed. I'm taking the cake to my mother in the morning.
I learned many things with my first cake. The first of which is that I really need a lot of practice, as I'm not very good. I know it's my first cake, and I haven't had lessons yet, but I really, really need lessons. ![]()
Your cake will be fine sitting out tonite. I put mine in a cake box. I usually put a peice of foil over top to close up gaps of box. This is my way of keeping air out for freshness. The room always cool. Been doing this for yrs. Don,t let this worry you. It will be fine. Sleep tight.
