With your first wedding anniversary coming up, it's time to start thinking about the leftover wedding cake that you stashed in the back of your freezer. It's a wedding tradition to freeze the top tier of the cake to enjoy one year later on your anniversary. Even if the cake is not for your anniversary, as long as you properly froze the buttercream-frosted cake, it is only a matter of defrosting it for a few days before you can enjoy the cake with your loved ones.

Add this to my Recipe Box.

Things You'll Need

  • Sharp knife

Instructions

    • 1

      Remove the wrapped, frozen cake from the freezer three days before you want to eat it and place in the refrigerator to defrost.

    • 2

      Remove the cake from the refrigerator and unwrap it.

    • 3

      Place the unwrapped cake on the counter to come to room temperature on the day you are ready to eat the cake.

    • 4

      Check the temperature and softness of the cake and frosting by seeing if you can run a knife easily through it. Slice and enjoy.

Tips &- Warnings

  • When freezing cake with buttercream frosting, place the cake directly in the freezer without wrapping for at least 20 minutes to harden the icing. Wrap in several layers of plastic wrap and foil to freeze the whole cake.
