Cake Help Please

Both my sons have their birthdays on the same day (they're not twins - just flipping awkward!). I've baked the sponges I need to make their cakes but I'm not planning on constructing or icing them til Friday. Will the cakes be ok just clingfilmed until then or should I freeze them?

I'd freeze them, think they'd go a bit stale before friday. Best to be safe than sorry, you'd hate to find they're gone all gross on Friday!:EasterBun0

Yes, freeze them. As muppet says they have a risk of getting yucky so freeze them and take out em out the morning of the party.

Depending on the size but usually few hrs at the most. *If you like the advice I give...let me know by clicking the THANKS button* 0

My mum swears that her sponges are even better after they've been frozen so I'd agree freeze them. I'd take them out the night before you need them.:j Trytryagain FLYLADY - SAYE £700 each month Premium Bonds £713 Mortgage Was £100,000@20/6/08 now zilch 21/4/15:beer: WTL - 52 (I'll do it 4 MUM)0
