Cake questions: how far in advance can I make...

...chocolate cornflake cakes and fairy cakes for them still to taste ok?

Party is sunday lunchtime. If I make fairy cakes today will they still be ok by then? Plan to ice them tomorrow.

Cornflake cakes today or tomorrow?

Today or tomorrow,both should be fine, so long as they go into something airtight when cooled down, and you keep them somewhere coolish, but not the fridge.

my main problem would be keeping grubby, greedy paws off until Sunday!

Do you have a freezer? I always used to freeze fairy cakes and birthday cakes and ice them while frozen, saved getting any cake crumbs in the icing! But they'd keep fine if you made today. Personally, would make cornflake cakes tomorrow.

Thank you both.

Have freezer but it is full. Like the idea of icing when frozen (I'm not very good at icing). Maybe I should eat lots of ice cream to make room....

Will do the others on Sat pm then, I think.
