How to Store Leftover Birthday Cakes from Your Party

When you host a birthday party with lots of guests, it’s not unusual to find slices of cake still sitting on the table after the celebration ends. You might think of throwing them away, but remember that every birthday cake tells a story, as it holds sweet memories of the special day. In this article, we’ll share some practical and easy-to-follow tips to help you store the leftovers properly.

1. Cover It Properly
   First things first, you must make sure it is well-covered. We suggest putting it in an airtight container. Cakes hold a lot of moisture, and leaving them exposed to the air makes them dry quickly. An airtight container also helps to keep the flavors fresh, protects from bacteria and dust, and prevents the frosting or decoration from getting squished.
2. Store in The Right Place
   Now, your cake is inside an airtight container. The next step you should take is to store it in the right place. Because our cakes are made without added preservatives, they’re meant to be enjoyed while they’re still at their best. To keep the flavor and texture just right, place your leftover cake in the refrigerator and enjoy it within three days.
3. Serve It the Right Way
   Whenever you’re ready to enjoy your leftover cake, take it out of the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes before serving. This technique is called thawing, allowing the cake to come back to room temperature, softening the texture, and letting the flavors shine through. To slice the cake for serving, we suggest using a stainless steel knife to avoid squishing the layers or smudging the frosting!

Now you know the right way to store your leftover cake, are you ready to party, aDORÉbles?
