I definitely wouldn't freeze the noodles. They tend to get mushy. Really
this is one of those things that would take longer to cook from frozen than
it takes to cook fresh.

If the cream will go bad before then freeze it. You can't whip it after
it's been frozen but you can still use it in recipes.
