Cake Pans, Wrap, and Freezing Cake and Frostings

Mar 20, 2012 23:29

Where do you usually buy your cake pans? I used to buy them at Wal-Mart but I have more options now. I don't want to spend a ton of money at Williams-Sonoma, but I want more selection and higher quality. I'm particularly looking for a 14-cup Bundt or Angel Food cake pan. I currently have Wilton 9-inch layer pans and may but more, but I'm wondering if there are better options for me.

The other thing is I'm looking for inexpensive wrap options for cake. I know that there are several at local stores, but I'm looking for cheaper options. I know the cheap way to do it: cut large circles out of cardboard, wrap them in foil, and wrap the cake in plastic, but I'm concerned about mushing the frosting. I also need some cheap boxes for cake slices. (Lifting from my job is not an option.)

Last question is about freezing cakes and frostings. Does freezing affect the taste and/or texture of either? How long can you keep either thing frozen before it's no longer up to par?
