I echo you .. every time during baking or designing if I stuck some where , only thing I do , search your videos :) . And it's all sorted. THANK YOU!!!!! God bless you!!! You are a genius.
I made a wedding cake for my son’s wedding, freezing the layers. They kept for a week great in the freezer and when thawed to frost, they tasted like bakery cake. I think the freezing really helps them!
I like the stacked way you freeze two layers in wrap at the same time. Thank you so much for the detailed steps to the three different stages at which you can freeze.
I just love all of ur videos you get straight to the point... And educate from beginning to end Without going on about other stuff.... You were born for this.... Thanks
Thanx again for this tutorial. I have been doing cakes for just 4 months and not daily. I can make like 2 cakes in a month but people think of me as a pro who has been doing this for some time yet it's just because of your tutorials. They have been the best tool for my cake journey. God keep blessing you with all things good even more than you can ever imagine for helping people like me be better at what they do. Plus your tutorials are very realistic. "I don't know how many times I'll say that."
You do such a fantastic job in terms of helping us in our baking, no matter what stage of this journey we are in! Thanks, Emily, I love your cake designs and the inspiration behind them! 😊🙏🏽🇨🇦
Thanks so much for this video,this will help a lot to me especially when I’m busy. I can bake in advance and just freeze it until it’s time to use it. Thanks and God bless!
I bought a 3 layered Orange Creamsicle Cake for my birthday to celebrate it (alone) & have tons of cake leftover. I'm glad i can freeze it safely and store the leftover cake safely for enough time to fully consume it all. Because it is quite a delicious cake. I will probably end up giving most of it away to my little nieces and nephews anyways whenever they come to visit.... They always raid my snack stashes whenever they are here. 😅💜
This is going to be super helpful for me because I always have such a busy schedule trying to balance school and my small business thank you so much for this
Thank you for your baking videos. They are so helpful. But I have a question, when you freeze your crumb coated cake, for how long can it be kept frozen before frosting and decorating it? You didn’t give a specific amount of time.
Thanks for this great tutorial! Can you also freeze a frosted & decorated cake if it includes fondant accents, or will it sweat and cause problems after thawing?
I have seen people freeze fondant decorations and if you do, make sure you thaw them correctly by moving them (still wrapped) to the fridge for 12-24 hours before taking out to room temperature.
I haven't tried it with whipped cream. The reason it works with buttercream is that buttercream frosting sets and gets very firm when it's frozen, so the cling wrap won't damage the frosting. If your whipped cream frosting gets firm in the freezer too then yes, it will work!
Hi i’m so happy to have come across your channel, your tips are so helpful! Your amazing! Just wanted to ask when you bake cake layers, can you put them in the fridge for 30mins and then do the crumbcoat? Also when i’m doing the buttercream after putting on crumbcoat, will the remainder of my buttercream go lumpy or have air bubbles in, while I wait for my crumbcoat to set abit? And lastly once ive completed the cake, can I leave it in the fridge over night? Sorry for so many questions hope to get a reply would be amazing if you could help out thank you :)
Hi! After the cakes cool from baking yes, it’s fine to put them on the fridge or freezer for about 30 minutes before making your cake. The while the crumb coat sets just cover the bowl of buttercream so it doesn’t crust. Stir it a few times before using for the final coat, to knock out any air bubbles. And yes, refrigerating the cake overnight is fine. I recommend taking out 2 to 4 hours before you serve it so that it warms up to room temperature and that’s when the cake and buttercream will taste best.
Hey! Love your cakes and videos. I’m looking for a vanilla cake I can use oil in instead of butter. Any suggestion’s? I also want to frost it with decorations
Great video with quick relevant info, thank you. What are your thoughts on freezing sugarpaste covered cakes please? Obviously sugarpaste cakes and decorations aren’t good on the fridge without wrapping very securely, as they’ll sweat and the sugarpaste/gumpaste decorations will sweat/deteriorate/lose structure. xx
Thank you for another helpful video! I am just wondering, if I freeze individual layers, can I then refreeze those same layers when the cake is fully decorated?
Hi hopefully you see this. A little confused. If i bake the cake cut wrap and put into the freezer for a week. Do i take up the night before in the fridge and then crumb coat and do final buttercream. Or do you take out the freezer and do the first frost coat put in fridge and do second. Sorry i got lost. No experience with cake making 😢
Hi! Move it from the freezer to the fridge the night before you start. Crumb coat and then put in the fridge until the crumb coat has set (which means it's firm, not sticky - probably 30 minutes). Then you can final coat.
Fantastic video! I have a question. Could you please suggest how to wrap or not wrap a pound cake being prepared for shipping? I’ve shipped 2 cakes so far. But I know that I put an incredible amount of plastic wrap on it, and then even more plastic wrap before shipping it out. I appreciate any helpful advice you can provide.
Wow, I haven't heard of shipping cakes! Are they frosted? How do you make sure they don't get damaged? As far as plastic wrap, what about ziplock bags to keep them airtight? Or if your concern is environmental, someone mentioned beeswax wrap but I haven't seen or tried it myself.
@@BritishGirlBakes I wrapped my cakes in bunch of plastic wrap and shrink wrap. But it was excessive amount of wrapped plastic wrap. They arrived intact in both Texas and Florida (I live in Pennsylvania). Both recipients told me the cakes were delicious and most. The problem was excessive amounts of plastic wrap used to d add ship the cakes. I started my own Baking business and I’m trying gain knowledge on what is the best ways to o freeze and s as hip my Pound cakes.
I have refrozen my cakes and can't taste a different in the flavour or texture BUT I don't sell my cakes - if you are making the cake for a customer, check the regulations in your area
Hiya I just wanted to ask I made the cake today and I want to decorate it tomorrow. can I leave it outside on the kitchen table overnight or shall I put the cake in the fridge.Thank youx

This is so much helpful So the one with just the cram coat ...how long can it stay in the freezer and whether or not I need to wrap it like the done one ?
I cn also do this with whipped cream right?? Also I wanted the recipe for wedding sponge cake. Plzz help. Yur recipes r soo vry easy to follow. Thank u soo mch.

Hey I love your videos!! If I do the crumb coat and then freeze after do I have to wait for it to thaw before icing it? Or can I ice it while it’s frozen? Xxx💖💖💖
I don't recommend frosting a fully frozen cake but if you only put the cake in the freezer for about 15 minutes to set the crumb coat, you can then frost it straight away. Hope that helps!
Hi! I used to live in Costa Rica! I had a cupcake shop in San Pedro called Sweet Sensations 2010-2014 :) To prevent condensation, the change in temperature needs to be minimal so move the cake the freezer to the fridge to thaw overnight and then move to a cool room with air conditioning /fan. If you're serving outside, take it outside at the last minute and find a place in the shade, preferably with a breeze or fan!
Hello! I am wanting to freeze a crumb coated cake for three weeks, before decorating one day prior to the event. To freeze the crumb coated cake, should I just put the cake in the freezer for 15 minutes, then wrap the cake in plastic wrap? If so, when should I removed the plastic wrap before decorating: while it is still frozen or when it has thawed? Thanks
Great question! I would move the cake from the freezer to the fridge 24 hours before frosting, and take the plastic wrap off as soon as you take the cake out of the fridge to frost it.
@@BritishGirlBakes une fois décongelé dans le frigo, le film alimentaire ne va pas abîmer le glaçage ? Combien de temps avant de déguster le gâteau on doit sortir le gâteau du frigo ?
Hello. Nice tips. I forgot to dizzle my cake with syrup before freezing. Is it still possible to do it before I do the cream filling while the cake is still frozen?
Hi I'm a bit confused, you say you like to frost the cake direct from the freeze as they are less crumbly , then afterwards you say you like to wait for the cake to thaw before applying before the final coat of frosting because then you'll be able to take your time to perfect the frosting, so basically which is best please? Thank you LOVE your videos!
Hi! Great question! I put the layers in the freezer for about 30 minutes to tell them slightly before frosting, which makes them less crumbly. You can do the same with the crumb coat before the final coat (freezer for about 30 minutes) but I don’t recommend freezing completely and then frosting straight away
@@BritishGirlBakes thank you for your prompt reply. I'm doing a cake for my daughter's 21st birthday party and trying to get a bit ahead. Will be joining your course at some point by the way, probably towards Christmas time.
I know this is a year old but hoping you might still look in your comments section and answer questions! I have agreed to making my friends daughters wedding cake next June. So, I have a while to practice but I am in no way a professional and have never frozen a cake. She wants a small two tiered cake with 100 small individual cakes, half chocolate, half white, raspberry filling and buttercream frosting. I think I am in way over my head! Was thinking to bake sheet cakes, freeze, next day cut out the individual cakes, fill with raspberry filling, crumb coat, then freeze them all again. So, a couple of things: will my cake dry out too much and affect flavor, if i freeze, assemble and freeze again? Also, thinking to just do little "naked" cakes, defrost the night before, bring to the venue and decorate the tops with fresh flowers, so again, because they sre "naked" and it is June, will they dry out too much? Not sure if there is a better way to do this or not, timing, procedure? Any help would greatly be appreciated!
Just a novice is here, but I think as long as you plastic wrap it, you should be good! Also look into testing one since you’ll have so many and apply simple syrup if you need to 😊Good idea on the sheet cakes!! best of luck❤
Hi, thanks, if I need to trim a cake, should I also do this before freezing ? Also what if you do the crumb coat the night before and want to decorate a d transport the same day, will the cake thaw in time ?
Have you had any trouble with air bubbles forming under the buttercream when freezing your cakes? I just recently started getting this problem and idk how to avoid it. 😩
After frosting them yes, you can leave them at room temperature for 2 days and they will taste fresh. The frosting will seal the moisture in the cake so it won't dry out quickly
Hi there, I found this tutorial really useful thank you. I was hoping you might be able to offer some advice on a project I need to do. I am very time poor but the cake I want to do is complicated. I was hoping I could do it in stages and only have to do the final decorations on the day. Is it possible to: put a cake back in the freezer after doing the final frosting and take it out to thaw and add the final finishing touches? I’d have to make each layer separately and freeze them, then take it out to buttercream between layers and crumb coat. Put it back in the freezer and then take it out to finish frosting before putting it back in freezer until the day. Is this possible or would the cake thaw too much to return it once time spent adding final frosting?
Been freezing my cakes and then icing them while frozen for years. Huge time saver and the cakes are always moist and the taste is great.
Yessss! So happy to hear that!
It’s kinda like when you make spaghetti. It always tastes better the second day because the flavors marry and become richer. Perfection!
Wanted to ask how long do u put your cake in the fridge and once u iced it how long do u leave to thaw
Do you let it cool first ? or Do wrap it and put it straight in the freezer
