No, no need for the oven! Put them on a wire rack and leave them in the room. I have done it sometimes half an hour before they are eaten and they have been fine.

I freeze them all the time - with icing on too. They thaw very quickly - o course it depends on how warm the rrom is, but an hour would be more than enough.

if there is no icing/cream/jam anything else on them the basic sponge cakes will freeze, according to my cordon bleu cookbook. I've never tried it though, so not sure how well it works.
