How do I transport my cake and or cupcakes?
Please make sure your a/c is set as cool as possible for the drive. Placing cake on a flat surface is best. This is usually in the trunk (make sure it’s not too hot) or in the footwell. Move your front passenger seat as far back as possible and place cakes on the floor.
Cakes on laps aren’t a good idea!
If you are picking up a bouquet, a large laundry basket is useful to stabilise the bouquet in the trunk if you are travelling a long way.
Drive cautiously while transporting cake! 😊
Storage
Refrigerate overnight. Remove from the fridge an hour before serving.
If displaying at an event: make sure the environment is as cool as possible (under 72 deg F) and not too humid.
Cakes and cupcakes are best served within 2-3 days of collection or delivery.
Cupcake Bouquets
Cupcake bouquets are set on a stable base and can be displayed just like a vase of flowers. They can be held and picked up carefully.
They are displayed with tissue paper, cellophane, and a pretty bow.
For transportation they come in a box. When you remove the box to display the bouquet, tear the sides and open up as much as possible before lifting out to avoid bumping the sides.
To serve the cupcakes out of the bouquet, use 2 forks to gently push into the sides to lift the 1st cupcake out, after that, it is easy pull each cupcake out.
Please note that choosing multiple flavors of cake in the bouquet, may be tricky to know which flavor is which before pulling the cupcake out of the bouquet.
Bouquets are made up of standard size cupcakes.
