FAQ - How to store a cake

When i store a cake with fondant in a fridge i never wrap it, nor do i box it. I crumble up ½ a roll of kitchen towel and stuff it around the cake -making sure it doesn´t touch it- to attract the moist from the fridge so that the cake won´t. I find that the more vegetables and fruits are stored in the fridge at the same time, the more humidity the cake attracts and the more it sweats when it´s taken out. Therefore i make sure everything else apart from the cake is properly wrapped.
