I made my first tiered cake tonight at my class, and it turned out absolutely GORGEOUS!! Even my instructor was seriously impressed! So, I'm very excited about it. I would love to post a pic, but my files are too big.

Anyways....I'm wondering if it will keep until a party on Saturday night? I baked it late Tuesday night and iced it as soon as it cooled. I did a strawberry filling on one of the cakes...will it be all soggy by Saturday? Or should I just sacrifice the cake to the teacher lounge at work tomorrow?

Thanks for your help....I love this website, it's awesome!!!

Hummm, I think you are cutting it close by waiting until Saturday, just because of the filling. Otherwise I would say you would be fine.

I just did a fondant real strawberry filling cake last wednesday. It was served Saturday. I refridgerate all my cakes.

I should have said that I used strawberry pie filling (from a can) and pureed it.....used all crisco buttercream and covered in MMF.

are you keeping it in the fridge?... it should be fine

Thanks, everyone for the quick responses!!! I stuck it in the fridge, so it should be good to go then!!!

Thanks again!
