Pretty much all cake is better wrapped airtight and sat overnight.

You absolutely can bake the layers the night before. Like iuzzini says, it really is better the next day or even the day after that. I hope you like it!

Mmm with the wine, vanilla, and olive oil, it might be one of those cakes that is better the next day. :) Let us know!

Great - thought so but wanted to be sure.

You could email Midge directly, but I would think so. Just let the layers cool completely and them wrap them well.
