to save or not to save...
Saving the top tier of a wedding cake may have become an outdated
tradition. Because many times cakes are not prepared for freezing and defrosting correctly, they aren't enjoyable to the couple, a year later, celebrating their first anniversary.
Today's trends find couples desiring fresh, moist replicas of their wedding cake's top tier.
If you're a fairly traditional couple, keeping the wedding cake for your yearly anniversary is probably something you're interested in doing.
It's critical that you package and secure the cake in the proper way so at the end of the twelve months you're not left with a stale tasting version of your wedding cake. Even in a freezer, many cake fillings will not be able to endure more than a few months. In addition, the more delicate cakes freeze at a rapid pace and can become crispy.
The better the cake is wrapped, the less likely it will suffer from freezer burn.
Best directions for freezing the cake:
* Freeze the cake an hour prior to wrapping it so that the frosting
doesn't adhere to the wrapping
* Wrap the cake well in several layers of plastic wrap getting all
air out
* Put in freezer bag
* Wrap in aluminum foil.
* Put in cardboard box.
