Can I freeze this cake?

I made this cake yesterday minus the peanuts - layers of cake, ganache, salted caramel sauce. It's completely gorgeous but very rich, so we have three quarters left over.

I know ganache will freeze well, and I know the cake will be fine, but I don't know about the salted caramel sauce.

Has anyone frozen a cake like this? How did it hold up when thawed? TIA.

    We sell something similar in work, salted caramel peanut stack. It comes in frozen so I'd say go for it

    cut it into portions and freeze it - it will be fine, in fact I often find cakes are better frozen then defrosted .

  • Thank you for the replies, it's sliced and safely in the freezer until Christmas.
    Such a nice cake... I'm afraid to count up the calories per portion though. Blissful ignorance is called for in this case, I think;).
