I never would have guessed you just took out of the freezer that morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349922 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:31:26 +0000 MsLipGloss 1349922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: The morning of her party. I assembled and frosted it while it was still frozen (I finished around 10:30/11:00 a.m.?) and then left the cake out. The party started at 2, and it was cut and served at 3. :)</p> <p>It took me about 45 minutes to assemble, frost , and (lightly) decorate both her party cake and her smash cake. It went faster that time because I had already done a few practice runs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349906 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:27:46 +0000 Smurfette 1349906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: When did you take it out? And frost it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349880 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:21:58 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1349880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At least a month if you wrap it in plastic and then foil. Probably closer to 2-3 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349864 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:18:28 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1349864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well our wedding cake froze for a year. As long as you are only doing it a few months you should be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349819 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:05:19 +0000 lovehoneybee 1349819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/quick-tip-freeze-prebaked-cake-82245" rel="nofollow">http://www.thekitchn.com/quick-tip-freeze-prebaked-cake-82245</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349816 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:03:29 +0000 lovehoneybee 1349816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As long as it's properly wrapped and defrosted correctly it should be good for months. I made the layers for E's cake a week in advance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349809 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:02:10 +0000 MsLipGloss 1349809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For my 2 trial cakes, I froze the layers for a week both times. The layers were perfect--and still flavorful--when they defrosted. For LO's actual cake, the layers were frozen for 4 days prior to her party.</p> <p>ETA: It was so much easier to frost frozen, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-early-can-i-bake-a-cake-and-freeze-it#post-1349799 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 12:58:24 +0000 Smurfette 1349799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to make R's 1st bday cake, just wondering how early you can bake and freeze and it will taste good still. </p>
