When do I become a real person?  ;)   It would be easier if I made all of the cakes on one night and then assembled and decorated them the next night.  I have a fridge to store them in my school from about 6 a.m. until they will be served on the same day, but no fridge to store them in between the night that I make them and 6 a.m. 36 hours later.  Is this ok?  I plan on putting the crumb coat on the cakes as soon as they cool, the night that I cook them, and leaving my air conditioning on, cranked as low as it can go. I know that could dry the cakes out, but if they have a crumb coat I don't think I can wrap the cakes in plastic wrap.  Any thoughts?  I need to buy a chest freezer!

The crumb coat will seal in the moisture  so they will not dry out but if it makes you feel better cover them w/plastic — it wouldn’t need to be tight   If they are completely decorated they do not need any covering   You can box them then wrap the box but even that isn’t necessary

And there is no need to freeze yourself with the air conditioning.  Just leave at set at around 70 or your usual temp and the cake will be fine.

 I agree with kakeladi and SandraSmiley .I don't have a freezer and have  never refrigerated  my cakes  and haven't had any problems in 20 years.
