Indulge in the rich, decadent flavor of devil's food cake, a chocolate lover's dream. Properly stored, this moist and tender cake can be enjoyed for days, maintaining its delightful texture and deep cocoa notes.
Storage Time
3–4 days at room temperature, 5–7 days in the refrigerator, up to 3 months in the freezer
Temperature
Store unfrosted cake at room temperature (18-22°C) in an airtight container. Frosted cakes or leftovers are best kept refrigerated at 0-4°C.
Freezing
Devil's food cake freezes beautifully! Wrap unfrosted cake tightly in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil or place in a freezer-safe container. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before bringing to room temperature for best texture. If frosted, freeze slices individually for easier thawing and to prevent frosting damage.
Signs of Spoilage
- Mold growth on the surface or edges.
- A sour or off smell, distinct from its usual chocolate aroma.
- A dry, crumbly texture that has lost its moisture and tenderness.
