How do you store it if it’s decorated with frosting?

[@jennydavis9992]

Thank you so much for your very helpful tips. I love baking cakes and have always tried to complete everything in 1 day! Am looking forward to learning more from you : )

[@honey_cloud6601]

I've made a cake for my younger sisters birthday(turning 6 on monday Mashallah). Cut the dome shape so its flat and wrapped it. Going to decorate it as well tomorrow and hopefully will be good. Thanks for the vid💖💖✨🎂

[@NourInTheKitchen]

Amazing! Happy birthday to your sister 🥳❤️

[@sherryimam3944]

Thankyou so much for this video. I was looking for a video that shows when to decorate the cake after thawing wasn’t sure if I should decorate the super chilled cake right out of the fridge or should thaw it on the counter shelf first. There’s no video that answers this specifically. So Thankyou for sharing this

My pleasure! Happy it was useful for you ❤️🤗

Do I wrap them once they are completely cooled down or can they still be a little warm?

[@dannahshaver]

Same question here!

[@dr.anitakomonskind9905]

She said cool completely in the video

[@rebeccamitric1631]

I saw her response on another comment. She said she let's them cool for about 30mins then wraps them, she finds they stay moist this way. I also saw a similar comment on another video. So I think wrapping while warm, is a good idea

[@patbellian2938]

Hello Nour, please can you tell me if its better to cut a sloping road into a cake when it out of the fridge or before you put it into the fridge. Many thanks Pat.

Love HOW YOU had a large Piece of parchment paper under the cake ,so its easy to take off the flat pan !!! Thnk you for this too! Also, do you decorate your cake THE DAY OF THE EVENT?? And how far ahead you do buttercream is thats the case,? Or whippped cream. I know whipped cream is different. Thank you in Advance

[@NourInTheKitchen]

So glad you found this video helpful. Depending on the time I usually decorate the cake one day before the event or on the same day in the morning. I do my buttercream on the day before, for whipped cream, fresh just before decorating is best :))

[@pushpindersidhu6015]

Great tips dear sis

[@sherryimam3944]

Also I was wondering does the condensation get to the cake when it’s on the counter shelf? Because where I live it’s pretty hot there.

[@NourInTheKitchen]

no it should not :)

[@shelleybaker3808]

Thank you so much!!❤❤❤

[@TriniDaChief]

Do cake layers even need to be refrigerated if they’re being used the next day? I made a carrot cake and I want to frost it tomorrow. If I had made an unfrosted carrot loaf or banana bread I would not normally refrigerate it. What is your advice on this? Thanks

[@chimmaralovedey6717]

This is wow Ma is't fregde or freezer?

[@angelajames9314]

How do you get flat cake layers?

[@RuthCBH]

Must we level the dome before refrigerating them?

[@NourInTheKitchen]

No, I usually find it is easier to level cakes when they are cold so it does not make a lot of crumbs :)

Hi, Thanks for the great video. My son's birthday coming in 2 weeks and I want to make 10 inch vanila cake, could you please let me know how much ingredients touse it?

What can be used instead of cling wrap?

[@jacobrivera3259]

Hi this is a very helpful video. My question is can I wrap the cake in foil instead of cling wrap?

[@NourInTheKitchen]

No the foil will actually damage the cake and leave dents. I prefer to use plastic wrap first then foil only on second layer if I will be freezing it, otherwise no need and you can just keep it in the fridge :))

[@denisegould3064]

How do you keep from removing a thin layer of the cake when you take the plastic wrap off the next day? Doesn't it stick to some of the plastic when you pull it off?

You can leave the cake outside only if it will be consumed in the next 12-24 hrs :))

Hi- why my cakes becoming dry after baking

[@abbiegirl111]

Can i store it directly to the fridge or should i put it also in the airtight container?

[@NourInTheKitchen]

You can store the wrapped cake directly, no need for airtight container. But it needs to be wrapped very well.

[@abbiegirl111]

@@NourInTheKitchen ill try your method. thank you.

[@inayaseedeen1599]

Did you start wrapping the cake whilst it’s hot or after couple of hours when it’s warm ? Why no completely cool down the cake and wrap ?

[@NourInTheKitchen]

I generally let the cakes cool down for around 30 minutes then wrap them. I find it stays extra moist when wrapped before completely cooling down :))

[@misshhuu]

Hi. Yesterday I searched so much for this info and I couldn't find anything. So I anyway wrapped my 2 layers of cake separately in cling film and put them in a zip lock bag and then tossed in the fridge worried that today on my son's bday it will ok or no. I had made butter cream frosting the day before and stored in the fridge. Now today maybe 2 hours before cake cutting I will keep the cakes out to come down to room temperature and then apply the frosting. My question: if the cake is too dry what should I do. I had already poked the cake and saturated it with milk after it cooled down.

[@NourInTheKitchen]

Great work! If you already added milk syrup to the cake then don’t worry it will not be dry at all 😉

[@misshhuu]

@@NourInTheKitchen wow..thank you so much for such a quick response.

[@sandeepdehankar3499]

Do I Keep the cake in the fridge or freezer?

[@NourInTheKitchen]

it depends on when it will be consumed. less than 3 days, fridge is ok but more then freezer will be better :))

[@alishachoudhary9288]

can i store it outside or one night?

[@NourInTheKitchen]

You can but if you are going to decorate anyway I recommend to refrigerate it because the decorating process will be easier with a chilled cake ;)

[@rosalindrose2410]

Can I store it in the refrigerator for a day, then decorate it with buttercream the next day & again store it in the refrigerator for another day before having it? And do you prefer brushing sugar syrups on the cake to make it moist?

[@NourInTheKitchen]

Yes absolutely! That is almost always the way I do it. Just make sure to take the finished cake out of the fridge 30 minutes before serving so it is not too cold. As for the sugar syrup it completely depends on the recipe you use. If you find your cake are on the dry side then definitely brushing it with sugar syrup will moisten it but if it is already moist then no need :)

[@rosalindrose2410]

@@NourInTheKitchen Thank you soo much for your reply ❤ Can u kindly tell me when to add the sugar syrup, before storing in the fridge or after storing, just before frosting with buttercream? Brushing sugar syrup just right before frosting with buttercream does makes a lot of crumbs, So can u kindly share any tips that would cause less crumbs & will help to have smooth buttercream frosting.

[@NourInTheKitchen]

@@rosalindrose2410 I find that if the cake is cold it helps not make too many crumbs when brushing with simple syrup but actually most of the time I never add the syrup because the cake doesn’t need it, so I would say try finding a cake recipe that is nice and moist to start with :)
