How to Take Care of Your Fresh Cakes and Cupcakes?

 

Keeping fresh cakes and cupcakes in perfect condition might seem like a daunting task, but don't worry! By following these simple care instructions, you can relish your sweet treats in their optimal state.

 

Optimal Storage: Once you receive your delicious cake or cupcakes, store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. It's best to keep them in the box they came in until you're ready to serve them.

 

Refrigeration: Yay or Nay?: For cakes and cupcakes frosted with buttercream or ganache, refrigeration is not typically necessary unless stated otherwise. However, if they have a cream cheese frosting, custard filling, or fresh fruit, it's best to refrigerate.

 

Serving Temperature: If refrigerated, remember to take your cake or cupcakes out of the refrigerator an hour or two before serving. This allows the frosting to soften and the cake to return to room temperature for the best flavor and texture.

 

Airtight Containers: If you have any leftover cake or cupcakes, place them in an airtight container to keep them fresh. If properly stored, they should last 2-3 days at room temperature, or up to a week in the refrigerator.

 

Freezing: If you can't finish your cake or cupcakes within a few days, consider freezing them. Place individual cupcakes in freezer bags or wrap larger pieces of cake in plastic wrap and then foil. They can last up to three months in the freezer. Just remember to thaw them in the refrigerator before bringing them to room temperature to serve.

 

Avoid Sogginess: If your cake or cupcakes have a high fresh fruit content, consume them promptly to avoid sogginess. The moisture from the fruit can make the sponge damp over time.
