Freezing Wedding Cakes

Freezing Cakes


Are you afraid to freeze wedding cakes? I get a lot of questions about this very subject. For almost 30 years I have been successfully freezing all of my wedding cakes. Contrary to what people think, freezing does not make the cake less fresh, it actually does the opposite. When wrapped in a few layers of plastic wrap and then frozen your cakes will be moist and delicious.

Here are a few tips about freezing cakes. After they are completely cooled you can then wrap them in double layers of plastic wrap before freezing. When you are ready to fill your cakes, use the cakes as they are, still frozen. Fill them, crumb coat, re-wrap and then place them back in the freezer.

When you are ready to finalize your creations, remove the cakes and thaw them a little, if desired, or use them frozen. Put the final frosting on them and decorate. The cakes will be moist inside as they thaw out slowly. By the time the bride and groom serve the wedding cake it will be the perfect temperature.
