Good catch -- Fondant covered anything should not be frozen. The sentence should have said: "You can freeze Petits Fours unless it is covered in Fondant and/or contains perishable dairy based items such as whipped cream, custards, etc." From http://www.baking911.com/decorating_cakes_fondant.htm Petits Fours are really small cakes and can be frozen according to their fillings and frostings. (I know that you already looked here for storage tips http://www.baking911.com/pantry_storage_baked_goods.htm However, what I recommend is to make the cake ahead of time and freeze. A few days before the event (if you can), cut the petits fours from the cake, glaze and decorate. They will turn out better. But, if you can't do it that way, do a test batch of frosted petits fours and see how they turn out when frozen and thawed. Always wrap anything for the freezer in plastic wrap, then foil and place in an airtight container or bag. Good luck!!
