Whether it’s soft buttercream, refreshing mousse or rich tiramisu, your chosen Winkcake carries sweet wishes and happy memories. We understand that every bite of this exquisite Winkcake deserves to be savored to the fullest.
Because we guarantee 100% fresh, preservative-free cakes and delivery within 2 hours, we ensure your cakes always retain their best taste as soon as they arrive. Therefore, proper storage is extremely important to maintain this perfection.
The instructions below will help you preserve Winkcakes professionally, ensuring they are always as delicious as when they were first made.
Why do Winkcakes need special care?
Because we use premium butter, fresh fruit, mascarpone cheese and other high quality ingredients, these natural ingredients are extremely sensitive to temperature and time. Proper storage will preserve the great taste and freshness of Winkcakes.
General Golden Rule: Applies to all types of cakes
1. Refrigerate immediately! This is the most important rule. After receiving the cake, if you do not finish it within 1 hour, refrigerate it immediately (0-4°C). Cream, mousse and cheese will soften and warp at room temperature.
2. Protection from odors and moisture: Cakes are very susceptible to odors from other foods in the refrigerator. Always store cakes in an airtight container or tightly wrapped in plastic wrap. Winkcake packaging is your first line of defense!
3. Reheat before serving: After removing the cake from the refrigerator, leave it at room temperature for 15-30 minutes. This will help the cream and mousse return to their light, smooth texture and optimal flavor.
Specific storage instructions for each type of cake
1. Cakes (eg Fruit Cakes, Chocolate Cakes)
* Storage: Must be refrigerated. Pay special attention to the decoration. If the fruit is fresh, use as soon as possible (preferably the same day).
* Storage: Should be used within 1-2 days for optimal flavor.
2. Mousse Cake (eg: Mango Mousse, Matcha Mousse)
* Storage: Must be refrigerated. Mousse is very temperature sensitive; do not freeze as this will affect the smooth texture of the cake.
* Storage: Should be used within 2-3 days.
3. Tiramisu Cake
* Storage: Must be refrigerated! This is important for storage. Tiramisu, which includes mascarpone cheese and ladyfingers, is very temperature sensitive. Make sure to seal the container tightly to prevent moisture from entering the refrigerator, which can reduce flavor.
* Storage: Should be used within 3 days to experience the optimal blend of coffee aroma and rich cheese flavor.
4. Specially decorated cakes
* Decorating with fondant: Fondant is not perishable, but it will dry out and harden if exposed to air. Keep it covered and refrigerated with the cake, and remove the fondant when using.
* Chocolate Chips/Crispy Pearls: Keep airtight and refrigerated to avoid moisture and softening. * Fresh Flower Decoration: Flowers are not edible, so we recommend removing the flowers after taking photos and refrigerating the cake.
Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)
Q: Can the cake be frozen?
A: We strongly advise against freezing Winkcakes. This will severely damage the internal structure of the cream, mousse and cheese. When defrosted, the cake will separate, resulting in a rough, grainy texture and losing its original softness. Freshly made, delicious cakes deserve to be enjoyed fresh.
Q: How should I store leftover cake?
Answer: For leftover cake, you should absolutely not leave a metal knife in the cake box. The best way is to use plastic wrap to cover the cut surface of the cake to limit exposure to air. Then, store the cake in a sealed box and place it in the refrigerator.
