Quick Black Forest gateaux dilemma...

[goldface]

Bought it frozen on Saturday and put it in the fridge...has been there since is it ok to eat today??

Yes

No, definitely shouldn’t eat it. If you want to post it to me I will ‘dispose’ of it for you....

Inject more Kircsh into it and the alcohol will kill off any remaining bacteria

It is cake. Is it mouldy? Scrape those bits off if so, and get it down your cake hole!

Sink your face into it and inhale deeply. It will be a religious experience.

It'll be fine.

I am in awe at your restraint in leaving it until today.

Id say eat it- but then- im a cake swoggling fatty... ok, bought sat, defrosted in fridge sunday, three day rule for refridgerated goods when opened... you're good to go!

It’ll be fine. Scoff it.

I'd do up to 2 days after defrosting which it is, enjoy!

HA! Wouldn't have lasted that long here! It'll be fine.

What on earth do you think happens to a gateaux in a fridge? The cake might go dry. The cream might go rancid. The fruit might go soft. But all those things could take 10 days or more and none of those things will kill you.

Thanks everyone, all eaten and all good!
