KITCHEN HACK Piece of Cake

Bodacious Rosé VQA LCBO 46335, $11.95 50

If you have leftover cake—perhaps from our DIY wedding cakes (p. 76)—here’s a simple storage hack that is a complete game-changer. Simply place the cake on the inside of a lid of an appropriate-size plastic container, then put the main container piece over it like a dome. It’s an upside-down trick that keeps the cake right side up, unsmooshed and ready to serve again.
