[quote=Anonymous]It think PP that said refrigerate before you drive, put it on ice and refrigerate after is probably right.

But I also think that a cake, when wrapped in saran wrap and then aluminum foil, will do fine for a couple of days at room tempoerature.  The frosting is the tricky part.  Woudl she tolerate store bought frosting in a can?  Or, alternatively, does she like ganache?  It is super easy to make in a microwave -- basically microwave some chocolate (can even use good chips) in a bowl, stirring often until melted, add a bunch of butter and stir until melted, add a little milk or cream to thin in.  Let it cool slightly until it starts to thicken, and then you can pour or spread over the cake and as it cools it will get glossy and thicker.  It is so good.

My favorite cake of all times is a homemade chocolate sour-cream cake, filled with sweetened whipped cream, and covered with ganache.  (I think you could even do that and use Reddiwhip from the store as the filling -- I wouldn't do that at home, but Reddiwhip is an acceptable substitute when whipped cream is too much hassle.)

Speaking of Reddiwhip, another valid opetion is a homemade pound cake with Reddiwhip and fresh berries that you can pick up at a grocery store near them.  Yum.[/quote]
