I have never worried about my icing crusting before, but I do use a crusting recipe,

Should I put it in the fridge to crust, or leave it on the counter?

thanks icon_biggrin.gif

Counter like the other have said. It will not crust without air. Putting it in the fridge will prevent crusting. Ever leave a bowl of buttercream uncovered? The top will crust where the air hits it. Putting it in the fridge will firm it up but it doesn't crust w/o being exposed to air.

I never refrigerate a cake. I did once and it too just short of forever to crust once I removed it from the fridge. icon_lol.gif
