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!!!

It depends on the frosting, what tipe of frosting did you use? the strawberries were fresh?

I used all crisco buttercream, then covered in MMF.... and the strawberry filling was strawberry pie filling that I pureed.

Thanks!

Agree, not a problem at all. I would loosely cover it with seran wrap but do not completely seal it. I have had problems when doing that before. I usually just lay plastic wrap over the top and it's good to go
