STORAGE & HANDLING

1. What is the proper handling for cakes and cupcakes?
For those picking up their orders, we recommend that you place the items on a level surface. Should you be placing these on the car seat, kindly place stacked newspapers or magazines underneath to level the area. We do not suggest putting the cakes and cupcakes inside the car trunk as the heat will affect the quality and will also melt the icing.

2. Should we store the cakes and cupcakes inside the refrigerator?
No you should not. Storing a fondant covered cake inside the refrigerator will moisten the fondant. Placing the cake or cupcakes in a room temperature area with no direct sunlight will do. After your event, you may refrigerate to lengthen the shelf life.
