I've made these Meyer Lemon Limoncello Cupcakes, but haven't assembled them because I wasn't sure if my SIL was going to be available for me to drop them off for sure till later today (they were to be a birthday surprise). Sure enough she's not available till tomorrow, which makes me glad I've held off on assembly, so I'll wait to fill them with curd/ice them tomorrow, but should I put the cream cheese icing back in the fridge and just let it come back to room temp tomorrow before piping or leave it covered? I'm leaning toward fridge, but the lazy part of me says do I really need to do that?

Never-mind, the fridge won out over the laziness. smileys/smile.gif

I've read mixed opinions on this - some say yes, some say no. Personally, I would chill the icing...

(Don't chill the cupcakes - they'll dry up in the refrigerator). Ice and fill the cupcakes tomorrow as you mentioned.

 
I tossed the icing in the fridge and cupcakes in freezer

Normally I freeze cake, just an hour or so, before icing so they don't crumb. Given I have to core these I tossed them in thinking I'd ice them the same day. Hopefully, they'll be fine to sit overnight in there.
