Weddings bring many traditions, and one of our favorites is to save the top tier of your wedding cake for your first anniversary. To achieve a tasty cake a year from now, you want to preserve it right – so we created a list of steps for you to follow.
- Remove any decorations or sugar flowers
- If you have soft icing, you will want to chill the cake so it hardens and will be easier to wrap
- Wrap the cake in layers of plastic wrap – not tin foil, as this can cause freezer burn
- Seal the cake in an air tight bag or in an air tight container – we recommend a container so it does not get smashed in the freezer
- Place in freezer
Depending on the cake, some flavors have a longer shelf than others. Be sure to ask your baker their recommendations for preserving the cake or if you should share it after your honeymoon or on your three month anniversary instead.
