Hi, can anyone tell me the best way to store a victoria sponge overnight, I don't have any airtight containers :mad:

I haven't decorated the cake yet, will be doing this in the morning

Thanks in advance for any help!

Lol Thanks!

I'm new to this baking lark, can you tell?!

Once it was cool I would cover it with cling film to stop the air getting to it.

would tin foil do? I have no cling film..

I agree with Penelope Penguin, it will be fine overnight. But you could improvise an air-tight container by putting it on a plate and covering with a deep casserole dish, mixing bowl or even a saucepan.

Foil would be fine too.
