    Hi! If it's only 3 days, I would just keep it in the fridge. I've had cakes in the fridge up to a week and they have been fine! If they are moist to begin with, they will stay moist in the fridge. If you prefer to freeze it, you definitely can. Wrap really well in plastic wrap and freeze. The day before the party, remove from the freezer and put in the fridge (still wrapped in plastic wrap) so it can start slowly thawing. Then remove from the fridge and bring it into a cool air conditioned room to prevent condensation from forming!

    I personally store my cakes in the same box I deliver it without any issues. Even on the hottest days. I keep it in the fridge until I'm ready to deliver it. But I cool my car down for 10 minutes or so before I put the cake in there! I wouldn't want to deliver a cake that has sat out too long because the icing will get soft and the structure will be compromised.

    I feel like freezing is better. However, before I froze cakes, I would just wrap them in plastic (when still warm) and left them at room temp until I was ready to decorate. And it was still moist! But if I were baking the day before, I would freeze for like 6 hours and then take it out to thaw. I feel like freezing it does give a better result, but it's not necessary if you don't have the time!

    Hi karolyn, I am watching from South Africa ,love all you work, you are brilliant!! I have a problem I put my cakes in the freezer overnight, took it out the next morning to defrost for about 10 hrs . I iced my cake and the cake was beautiful It was very hot so I put the cake in the fridge overnight and part of the day, the party was the next day, the cake stood out for about 6 hrs, customer say that the cake was very dry, what did I do wrong 1st complain ever

    Oh no! It sucks when we get that feedback, it happens to all of us. If the cake was dry, it was most likely over baked. I frequently have frosted cakes in my fridge for 5 days without issue. The cake won't dry out in a few days if it's moist.

    I have a buttercream that I'm using for first time its half shortening half butter powdered sugar and only 2tablespoons heavy whipping cream. Do u think that it can sit out overnight to set or should I do the dish on top for 2hrs then refrigerate?

    I would always recommend to just refrigerate it when it has to sit out for more than a few hours. It just eliminates any possibility of something spoiling. I'm sure it would be okay if you didn't do it though.

    I have been frosting/filling all my cakes while frozen for the past 3 years and haven't had any issues (knock on wood). I've just had really good results doing it this way. I do keep the finished cake in the fridge (usually overnight) and until delivery so it can slowly thaw without the condensation issue. So far, no negative feedback from customers.

  • @KarolynsKakes

    I crumb coat the cake, put it in the fridge for at least 4 hours so the icing can harden, then remove it from the fridge and immediately add the final coat. I never freeze a crumb coated cake, you could have condensation issues if you do!

I’m only asking cause I know some people say if you’re going to freeze longer than a few days I should double wrap them in Saran Wrap and maybe wrap in foil and put in a freezer bag.

    You want to make sure the cakes are completely frozen before stacking more on top. If I have a lot of cakes to bake, I will start a few days early so I can bake and freeze, then stack more on top. I also have two fridges with freezers that I use just for my cakes, so I have a lot of space to spread them out!
