I'm making a wedding cake - well, lots and lots of little fruit cakes, individually marzipanned, covered in roll-out sugar paste, and then decorated - probably with powder colour stencil designs.
I'm buying little ready-made cakes with a long shelf-life. The wedding's at the beginning of June and I want to pace myself, so, please give me the benefit of your wisdom and let me know:
How far in advance I can marzipan the cakes
How far in advance I can cover them in sugar paste (I know I need to leave some time between marzipan and sugar paste)
The best way to store them (I'm guessing cardboard boxes so they can 'breathe'?)
Many many thanks in advance
