If it is about soaking part, I think it is wise to refrigerate since u re using orange juice. If it was alcohol, then refrigeration would not have required. If it is about keeping the cake covered for 5 days after baking, i dont think it will get spoilt once the cake is baked. Hope I cleared your queryMishmash !https://www.blogger.com/profile/18038923718366741085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382625508268634925.post-62674872413842432782008-12-21T21:14:00.000-05:002008-12-21T21:14:00.000-05:00I made a different version of this some weeks back...I made a different version of this some weeks back, but yours looks so dainty and lovely.
