When shipping cheesecake, it should be frozen and packed with dry ice or gel packs to keep it fresh. Overnight or two-day shipping should be used, and the package should be clearly labeled with handling instructions. The recipient should be notified of the expected delivery date and should be available to receive the package.
Before shipping the cheesecake, a person should make sure the cake is properly packaged and packed with dry ice. Standard shipping should be avoided, as it is imperative that the cheesecake arrives at its destination quickly. The shipping date must be chosen carefully. When shipping cheesecake, the shipper must label the package so that it is properly handled by the shipping company and the person receiving the cake.
Since cheesecake is a perishable item, it must be kept fresh during shipment. More often than not, it’s a good idea to freeze it before shipping the cheesecake. The dessert should be wrapped tightly in plastic wrap so that it retains a smooth texture and does not burn in the freezer.
Once frozen, the cheesecake should be packed with dry ice packs to keep it cool in transit. Another option is to use gel packs if dry ice is not available. Some people may want to pack the cake and ice packs in a cooler to provide insulation. Standard ice packs made from water should be avoided, as they will leak and cause the pack to lag.
Standard Shipping takes too long for the cheesecake to arrive in edible condition. When shipping cheesecake, the shipper should choose overnight or at least two day shipping. Any situation where the cheesecake would end up in storage for a weekend should be avoided. If a person ships on a Thursday or Friday, he or she should also purchase Saturday delivery so the cake isn’t in the package.
Packaging must be clearly labeled when shipping the cheesecake. “Keep refrigerated” and “fragile” should be written on the package so that the shipping company and the recipient know how to handle the package. The label on the package must be clearly written in permanent marker and large letters.
Before sending the cheesecake, the sender should let the recipient know it’s on its way and the expected delivery date so that the recipient is available to receive the package. The cake should not be sent to an office building, as there may not be a refrigerator there. In some cases, the office may be closed when the cake arrives. Some shippers will leave a package if no one answers the door, but some may not. It’s generally not a good idea to let a package of cheesecake sit on someone’s porch or in the entryway for hours.
