If you consider the fact that our cake was actually lost and buried in a self defrosting freezer for two years, the results are undoubtedly biased and completely our own fault. We thought we were being smart when we froze the top tier of our wedding cake in a state of the art Rubbermaid container. We even placed the cake on the lid making removal simpler. We realized that we forgot to fulfill the tradition a few months after our first anniversary. We then decided to just what til the two-year mark. Isn’t that even better celebrating that we made it two years? When we eventually removed the item from it’s two-year slumber it looked fabulous and well formed. Unfortunately, several hours later it was still rock hard! We actually ended up hacking away at the top creating a small cave to access the sweet (hopefully softer) inner fluffy cake area. After a tedious expedition we reached the buried goodness only to discover that it was no softer than the outer shell. At this point we still decided to taste the two-year old masterpiece. Big mistake. It tasted like cardboard and almost broke our teeth. Luckily, there were no permanent injuries and the item soon found it’s way to the local landfill.

Are we bitter? Not really, but we suggest that you go about freezing your cake in a different way, or just don’t do it at all. That is why we have created this website. We realized that there wasn’t a great one-stop resource discussing the pros and cons of freezing a wedding cake to be eaten on the first anniversary. We also found that there are lots of stories similar to ours that should be shared with people getting ready to get married and preparing to freeze the top portion of their wedding cake.
