They thaw quickly and frost easier when still kinda frozen, IMO </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-baking-question-freeze-or-refrigerate-cake-layers#post-1682877 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 19:12:37 +0000 MoonMoon 1682877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks!

Should I freeze or refrigerate them until then?<br /> If I freeze them, when/how should I defrost? </p>
