How far in advance can you make the letters for a cake? Does it dry out?

Just speaking from my personal experience, I live in a humid climate (Florida). I can make mine and leave it out for up to 3 weeks and sometimes when I go back to check on them, they are still a bit soft. Even gum paste. Florida climate is really super hard to live in and make good gum paste or fondant decorations. It's also hard to ice a cake here too. ugh :( The frosting melts!

They are very small letter perhaps on a large enough cupcake. Also depends how much muffintop you have for added width. Good luck!

I had a few cakes to do, I just kept the in a cool dry place. I was impressed at how nice and easy it was. So buy now so they don't run out.

mine last all day and it does not run, cake get cracky or easily wipe off. It does take some practice in applying; but if makeup is your thing, worth the effort.

I actually went back a year to see when I ordered/when they shipped, etc., and I can tell you that mine arrived @ 3 weeks before I used it. I'd recommend you store it carefully, flat, away from moisture, light, heat, etc. & make certain nothing gets placed atop of it. My daughter LOVED it!!! Handle it carefully when you apply it to cake, as it is somewhat fragile :)

While I can't give you an exact time frame, I know it will last a month or two if properly stored. The instruction sheet included in the bucket with the fondant explains it, but it's really just powdered sugar and marshmallow so it won't spoil, though it could dry out. A coat of cristco and a few layers of plastic wrap should keep it ready for use without drying out. If it did dry you could just peel off the dry layer and the inside should be good (if you knead it in the fondant will never be smooth).

Hi, the bee cake decoration will not go stale. The are wrapped in wax paper and plastic. They are sugar based so they worked out very well for me and I ordered them a month or more before the date I needed them. They are really adorable too !!!

Yes, soak them underwater for a couple of minutes and then run the strips between your fingers to lightly squeeze out the excess water. After you're done baking they will come out dry.

I did not use the pan to make cakes. I used the pans to make Monkey Bread. Monkey Bread is different from cake batter, but I set he oven for 350 degrees and 20 minutes. The Monkey Bread came out perfect.

Yes, once it comes to room temperature. It was very easy to apply to the cake too!

I'm suspicious so I dry mine first with a dish towel, then finish with them on a rimmed cookie sheet in the oven at 350-400 degrees for 10 minutes. Never a problem.

I am not sure. I know that when we have used it we had a party so it dissapeared by the next day so it was still fresh. Or we had it on a separate plate and put the plate that it was on in the fridge and just used a plastic cake cover to cover it. That is what we do. Hope that helps. Sorry for the delay in our answer.

I put the image on about a day and a half before I served it and kept it in the garage in freezing New York until I served it - no bleeding or melting. Just keep the cake in a cool place and it should be fine.

I've found that if you wait until the cakes are about lukewarm to the touch, they come out without issue. I generally have rather moist recipes though, so it could be related to your recipe as well. I also buttered the silicone quickly before I put the batter in, to make extra sure I wouldn't have to deal with crumbly cakes.

If you spray the pan with PAM or similar product first and then spread some flour in it, add the cake mix, and then bake the cake. After cake is baked, take it out and let it cool for 5 minutes and flip it over. There should be no sticking to the pan.

Don't open the door. .350 degrees for about 15 to 20 minutes for the mini pans..40 to 50 minutes for regular size angel food cake pan
