[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 116615, member: 1991"] I used to do a lot of baking in bulk and then freezing. My standby was chocolate banana cake, I would bake when we had a lot of bananas and then thaw as needed. Too often the kids would suddenly need to take a cake to school and I could just grab one from the freezer (it would thaw on the way to school). I froze them un-iced, or sometimes already iced with a butter icing. I would freeze them on a flat metal tray, then when frozen I would THEN wrap them or put them in a plastic bag. Less chance of things sticking. An iced cake - I would unwrap it while frozen and let it thaw on a plate. With my banana cakes - if they were still a bit frozen in the middle it actually made them taste like fudge. The kids loved them. An alternative to icing the cakes - you can sprinkle icing sugar over them (looked good on a chocolate cake). They need to be thawed for that, though, or the condensation dissolves the sugar. Go for it! Marg [/QUOTE]
