    it should be ok. Bakers sometimes freeze a cake that is going to be prepared ahead of time, but 2 days isn't enough time to freeze and then thaw. Fondant is pretty dry anyway.

    if you allowed it to cool first (important!), then applied the frosting and fondant, then put it in the fridge - it should be fine.

    As a cake decorator- place it in the fridge (it'll be fine!) and take it out 3 hours before serving. If the condensation hasn't completely dried- take a blow dryer to it... on low.

    Happy Birthday to your son :happy:
