Tip #1

- This cake stays moist and actually develops more apple flavor a day after baking. To store cake for a longer period, wrap unglazed cake in plastic food wrap. Place in freezer container with tight-fitting lid; freeze for up to 2 months. Glaze thawed cake as directed.

Tip #2

- Apple cider is raw apple juice that has not been filtered. It contains small amounts of apple pulp and is brown and cloudy. It is highly perishable and must be refrigerated. Apple juice results when apple cider is filtered to remove solids and is pasteurized. It has a longer shelf life than apple cider.
