i am in the middle of making cake pops, and they won't be delivered until friday. i've read that they keep for 5 days out of the refrigerator and up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator.
here's my question do they need to be covered in the refrigerator or not??
please help me! i have so much to do that i don't have time to make a mistake!!!
THANKS!!!




these are the cake pops i made how am i going to get them in a bag? Should i just cover them with press-n-seal? any other suggestions? will the choc covering be okay?
Still no picture. Did you already dip them in melts? If so, no need to refrigerate. If you didn't dip them, just cover them securely so they don't dry out. I usually roll and dip mine the day before I need them. I've had a "mushed" batch in the fridge for a week now that I'm rolling tomorrow night.

here they are i couldn't get them to upload directly to this post, so i put them in an album and have attached the link here. lmk what you think!

well, i did it because i have two other cakes i'm working on, and b'c i read on this message board that it was okay to do so! that's why i'm asking about refrigeration anyway! plus, i have three little boys too. the cake pops will be fine as have all of the other cakes that have been made and decorated days in advance. what about those cake pops that are made but not covered and sit in the frig for almost 3 weeks what's the difference???

I bag each one in a little ziploc baggie and leave them at room temperature. My husband has eaten one at the 7 day mark (only because of Passover). He says the texture is a bit mushier but the flavor is the same. I would not be comfortable with someone eating one after that.
There's the condensation issue to consider and the possibility of odor absorbtion.
I have heard that dipped cakepops will last up to three weeks in the fridge but not undipped...
With that being said, yours are beautiful! Please let us know how they hold up!

I make mine months in advance.... no one has ever had a problem with it

mamasan thanks for the info! yes, my cakes are dipped, and it won't be over a week. i'm covering them (air tight) and putting them in the refrigerator right now. i'll let you know how they hold up
motherofgrace do you freeze them? are they dipped or not? thanks so much for the encouragement!!!


Your cake pops are beautiful!I have never made cake pops before, but I have frozen a cake for about a week to a week and a half before I used it and the cakes turned out fine! When we cut in to it after I decorated it, it tasted like it just as fresh as any other one of my cakes. The key is to wrap them well. I think how you are putting them in the fridge will be perfectly fine! Keep up the good work!

I prefer to freeze them UNdipped, and I "flash" freeze them then just pop them in a ziplock bag If they are dipped, they are induvidually wrapped in foil or a lollipop bag (this is how I sell them).
HTH!

HTH!
How does one "flash freeze" and are they on a stick? What happens they thaw? TIA

I do the same thing, but I just freeze them and take them out as I need them


OH! sorry! I lay them out on a tray, and pop it in the freezer for about an hour, then I transfer them to a bag It prevents them from freezing into a big mound lol

Neat! I'll have to try that, thanks for the tip!
