How to store a cake before serving
Good storage protects the cake finish, flavour and structure between collection and serving.
Ask about the specific cake
Storage requirements depend on the filling, frosting and decorations used. Follow the instructions provided for your order rather than assuming every cake should be treated the same way.
Protect the box
Keep the cake boxed until it needs to be displayed. The box helps protect it from dust, odours, accidental contact and unnecessary handling.
Avoid heat and direct sunlight
Choose a cool, stable place away from windows, hot appliances and direct sun. If refrigeration is required, make enough level space before the cake arrives.
