Naked Wedding Cake

Naked Wedding Cake
Someone has requested a naked wedding cake... an icing-less three -tiered cake! My concern is that it will not remain moist. There is no way I can bake all of those layers the day before or even less that same day, set it up, and deliver it. The request is for a spice cake with cream cheese filling. The only thing I can think of is to use a fruit glaze, such as apricot preserves brushed over it. Any ideas?

I think a cake with baked edges should be fine. Muffins stay moist inside without a coating on the sides. The only way it would dry out is if the 3 tiers where cut out of a larger cake. I would make sure to grease my pans well, use parchment paper on the bottom so they come out nice. if you want to glaze the edges you had better check with the customer.

In the past I have baked many wedding cakes. I alway baked them ahead of time and froze them. I think they tasted better after the freezing then those that are served fresh. People have always loved my cakes. I made cakes at home, froze them, transported them frozen by car and plane thousands of miles and never had a problem.
