I would play it safe and take them out now to be safe. I don't think the 5 hour difference will matter much with freshness. I just took a cake out I had frozen for over a month, and let it thaw overnight. It's still really fresh, and I...

Thanks. I let it sit overnight and it did mellow out. In fact it is divine!

The difference is taste. Like I said before Crisco frostings are really just meant for practice because they do not taste good at all, and should not be served to people. (RLB says this in her book, that it is just for practice.) It is...

When I took classes it was a full house. I did not go on to the last one because I just didn't want to devote the time (I work full-time), plus fondant isn't that difficult to work with.
