I have a question about the recipe "Nigella Lawson's Very Smart Strawberry Streusel Cake" from Sarah Jampel. I have made Nigella's strawberry streusel cake (it's delicious!) but wondered if I could make it ahead of time and freeze. I am having a brunch on Friday and would like to make it ahead of time, if possible. I can bake, then freeze, for a few days or make one day ahead. Which would you recommend?

I would recommend making it one day ahead rather than freezing it! But if you do freeze it, I would thaw it in the refrigerator overnight (and then maybe warm it up in the oven before serving). I think it'll be fine either way!
