I wouldn;t take the risk - I'd bake more fresh on friday morning
They may freeze, but I've only ever done that before icing, so someone else will have to advise you on that.:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0 -

Yep, I'm with PenPen on this one.
I suppose you could scrape the icing off, freeze, then re-ice after defrosting - if it's worth the effort, or (non) points

I've frozen cupcakes with a butter icing variant, they were absolutely fine.
Perhaps you could freeze and bring out on Thursday morning then if by Thursday evening you felt they really weren't suitable for serving on Friday you could do another lot. . . but they probably will be fine.0 -
yes they defrosted perfectly so now we know.xx (buttercream)0
