If you're defrosting it, I would say more than an hour. If you just baked a cake and its hot, I would wait about thirty minutes to an hour before eating it.

I'd also say putting it in the refrigerator for 5mins.

Cakes don't usually melt. If it is an Ice Cream cake it depends on the brand.

Why cool cakes?

If you frost a hot cake, the heat from the cake will melt your frosting. You should allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. Cake is delicious warm; if you aren't planning on frosting it, it's perfectly fine to serve the cake before it cools. Allowing a cake to sit and cool for a bit also helps the cake to hold together better.

As with any cake, let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing. After 10 minutes, the cake should contract and come out of the pan easier. Once removed from pan, place onto a wire rack to cool until it is a room temperature. Once at room temperature, you will be best able to ice the cake without the icing melting.
