Sugarpaste virgin......help needed please!

It's my Son's birthday on Saturday, and I'm attempting to make him a castle cake. The cakes currently in the freezer, and ideally I need to begin the icing tonight or tomorrow, as I don't have much spare time towards the end of the week. I'm using sugar paste, will it be ok to start now?

    thanks loonatic. Am I right in thinking the cake will keep for about a week once it's been iced?

    Yes as long as it is properly sealed... It could infact keep for longer! - but in this heat who knows.

    Good Luck!
