A question from my sister....

[HeadFairy]

Can you freeze fairy cakes or do they go a bit soggy when you defrost them?

Is there a good way to make fairy cakes four or five days in advance of when we need them and still keep them fresh?

Yes you can freeze them un-iced, they're fine and not soggy. :)

We used to freeze cakes where I worked, obviously without icing. They defrosted fine.

Ooooh lovely, thanks. I had no idea you could freeze fairy cakes! She wants to do them tomorrow for her dd's party the following Saturday. Yay for Mumsnet!
