Storing Christmas cakes

Cut and fold lining paper over top of cake still in pan. Cover top of pan tightly with foil to trap steam and give cake a softer surface. Wrap pan in a towel; leave it for 12 hours, until cold. If cake is to be decorated, invert hot foil-covered cake, still in pan, onto a board. Cover with a towel. The weight of cake will flatten the top. When cold, remove cake from pan, leaving lining paper intact; wrap tightly in plastic wrap, then foil. Can be stored in a cool, dry place for up to six months, or in the fridge or freezer for up to a year.
