Storing the Italian Chocolate Nut Christmas Cake
Asked on 21 Dec 2018 by Emma Scott
Hi, I was just wondering if there's a particular reason that Delias Italian chocolate nut Christmas cake needs to be kept in the fridge? I REALLY want to make it but not sure I'll have room in the fridge to store it. I'm planning to make it the day before eating.
Hello,
I expect it’s because it’s more like a dessert than a cake if it’s warm it may be more fragile.
It may be fine in a cool place rather than a fridge but I wouldn’t wrap in foil because it might get damaged when you unwrap it. I think stored on a cake board or similar, covered in cling and kept in an airtight container; it will be fine for a few days in a cool place. Or even in the garage or boot of the car if it’s cold outside.
Best wishes
