• Keep your cake refrigerated and in its original box until serving. Cakes will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days.

• Cakesicles will stay fresh without refrigeration when stored in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration will help with freshness if storing for more than 5 days before serving.

• Cupcakes + Number Cakes: Because these items have exposed areas of cake, they can dry out more quickly than fully frosted cakes. If you won't be serving your number cake or cupcakes on the day of pickup, wrap the closed box tightly with plastic wrap before refrigerating for added freshness.

• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

• For longer storage, freeze leftovers in an airtight container or wrap them well to help preserve freshness. Leftovers can be frozen for up to 2-3 months.

• Most orders can be frozen for up to 2 weeks when wrapped properly. However, certain decorations and toppings—such as fresh fruit, fresh flowers, delicate chocolate work, or other specialty decorations—may not freeze well.

Freezing:

• Wrap your box in plastic wrap and put into the freezer.

Thawing:

• Transfer your order from the freezer to the refrigerator the night before serving.

• DO NOT directly move it from the freezer to room temperature. Thawing it first in the fridge prevents temperature shocking your order and causing extreme condensation that may ruin the finish.

• While thawing in the fridge, keep your order it in its original box and plastic wrap. This allows any condensation to collect on the outside of the box instead of directly on your dessert, helping protect the finish and decorations.
