Character Cake With Fondant...can I Refrigerate It?
Decorating By lkritchey Updated 18 Aug 2013 , 5:10am by lkritchey
AI just finished my second character cake - an Avengers cake - and need to give it to my friend a few days early. It has MMF and Satin Ice with buttercream frosting (no other filling). Can I (or need to) refrigerate it in a home fridge? Thanks everyone! I want to make sure the cake lasts until the party! Currently it is in a box sealed with plastic wrap.

ATechnically it shouldn't need refrigerated, but how many days will it be before its served?
AAs long as you covered it in fondant within 24 hours of making the cake it will be fine on sat and just as fresh. I wouldn't put in the fridge either. :-)
AI usually make my cakes mon/tues and cover them the next day for saturday delivery and ive not had any complaints about the taste/quality of cakes :)
AI wouldn't leave it out that long. Either way it needs to be in a box.

geamazingcakes - what do you cover them with? So, no refrigeration? What about with buttercream icing?? thanks!
ASo the party went great on Friday...she said that the cake was a hit! They loved the design AND the flavor. No complaints about freshness issues! I ended up having her store it in a cool but not refrigerated area - and stored it in a box sealed with plastic wrap (sealed completely with no gaps). So happy it worked out!
