Storing your
Christmas cake
To keep your Christmas
cake fresh and moist for a long
time, allow it to cool in the
pan in which it was baked.
The moisture will not escape,
but will condense within the
cake. For storage do not re-
move the paper in which the
cake was cooked. Just cover
your Christmas cake carefully
with wax paper or aluminum
foil and store it in a tin box,
stone crock, or polyethylene
bag,
