I'm making an ice cream cake for my brothers birthday. I was putting the ice cream on the first layer of cake and put it in the freezer. I couldn't finish putting the icecream on because it was melting, I tried putting more ice cream on it 15 minutes later but it was melting all over the place. I put it in the freezer again. I think at the beginning my ice cream was way too soft. How do I fix this?? Any help will be appreciated! Thanks.

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Is this homemade ice cream?– Jolenealaska ♦Commented May 8, 2016 at 5:44

Was the cake warm when you added the ice cream? You might try chilling it once it's cooled after baking.– Chris HCommented May 8, 2016 at 8:18

The problem was a malfunctioning freezer; this is why ice cream melted overnight in it.

1To the other users: I considered converting this to a comment, but in fact the OP recognized their problem and gave the correct answer - the cake must have caused trouble because of the malfunctioning freezer. So I see this post as an answer by our standards.– rumtscho ♦Commented May 8, 2016 at 12:05
