That’s a gorgeous cake I love it 🤩
🙋♀️💓
Love this cake and would like to try making one. How many inches and layers is your cake? TIA!
Karolyn is there a way to ask you a question? Email or fb? Please
If I’m making an 8 in 3 layers do I double the recipe?
Great hints. From a fellow Philadelphian I love that you said jimmies not sprinkles.❤
Been watching your video's for 2 days straight, i love you😂
Awwww Latonya! Love you back! 😊💜🙏
wonderful ❤❤
Fridge or upright freezer. Which is better
Upright freezer is better if you're making a lot of cakes and need the space. However, I make do with regular fridges that have the freezer on top (as there's more storage space).
@KarolynsKakes. Thank you for your reply ❤ you have been helping my brand for 3 straight years
I tried your recipe and love it!!! Thank you!!!❤
Yayyy!! I'm so glad you liked it!!
Can you PLEASE make a video about heart shape cakes? I struggle with serving sizes!
♥🎂🙋♀
😂🤣💕your intro is so funny are we the same person?! 😁💕👍
Fondant came out perfect. Started to make decorations with it, still need to learn how to smooth out the imperfections, but had so much fun. Thank you Karolyns 😊
Wonderful! There's a learning curve, but it's totally worth it!
What kind of straws are you using?
I use ones like these: amzn.to/4cfqpmB
Can I ask your advice on the rainbows please. I made a rainbow and left it to dry, then when I went to lift it off the board and put it on the cake, it cracked. I was so sad. How can I prevent this?
Did you use marshmallow fondant with the tylose powder? Or did you use store bought fondant? If you used store bought fondant, that may be your issue as I find that store bought fondant doesn't set as hard as marshmallow fondant!
Great to know👍 Thank you❤️
My ex undercharged for YEARS as a carpenter and had to add more clients just to make ends meet. Big mistake. I'm going to charge MY WORTH - I'm okay with someone going elsewhere. I am not trying to break anyone's pocket, but I refuse to work hard for free.....
Exactly! I get a lot of people shopping around and I know they aren't going to choose me because I'm never the cheapest!
@@KarolynsKakes 💯
Love all ur videos ur tips have help me a lot in my baking and cake decorating even if I only do them for my fam. I don’t sell lmao
This is wonderful! Thank you Josefina!
Great job
Too funn😢, was watching thinking i always live to learn something new. Maybe she has a better way then what i do.... This is exactly what i fo lol
It really works!!
Thank you Karolyn 🙏 ❣️
I tried smoothing with the paper towel but the frosting kept sticking to it. What did I do wrong?
If you're trying this on a meringue buttercream, it won't work because meringue icings don't crust. If you tried this on American Buttercream and it stuck, your bench scraper may have been wet or so hot that it melted the icing a little. Wait about 3 minutes for it to dry and then try again!
Excellent Training video! (5/16" diameter dowel not circumference) :)
Thank you! Sometimes words are hard 😂
Crisco is good to make it soft, but I do have another favorite that is even better, it is edible glycerin, wow the fondant will be as brand new and very nice🙂
Yes! This is true…I have photos from yrs ago of black dried out fondant…it was so bad that microwaving (which normally helps) didn’t do a thing. Only Wilton glycerin, with its baby oil consistency made it like new again. I also use glycerin for fondant going in the extruder…works better than shortening, in my opinion.
@@cakerbaker9965 YES, I totally agree! Glycerin is the "miracle", it always turns out great🙂
Thanks for sharing!!
@@KarolynsKakes ❤️🤗
Can ypu use the same trick on regular fondant please Karolyn?
It should help soften any fondant. However, store bought fondant is a different animal, so I'm not sure if it will still wrinkle / crack if you try to save it.
@KarolynsKakes thanks Karolyn. I can but try 😀
Karolyn you are wonderful, I am so grateful for the icing and decoration lessons. Surprise birthday cake for my daughters 40 birthday party and I followed you instructions for the icing. So far so good no air. Hopefully everything else goes to plan.
Yayyyy!!! You got this! 🎉🙏
This video will never get old. Thanks ❤
I got you boo! 💜
Can you add a few drops of water?
That makes it really sticky!
Awesome!
Thankyou very much ❤
I use Carma and I have no trouble with it setting.
Hi Karolyn - I enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing them. Can you tell me if the process - other than using the Viva - would work with SMBC? Specifically, the time spent settling in the fridge for 5 hours?
I don't make SMBC, so I'm not exactly sure what method works best. I know that my method won't work on SMBC because SMBC doesn't crust like American Buttercream does, so the towel / paper will stick to it.
@@KarolynsKakesthank you for your prompt reply!
I have no clue what this cake is about.
Wu-Tang Clan is a 90's hip-hop group!
Do you ever use Cake flour over AP Flour in your cake mix/hack?
I used cake flour once about 20 years ago and didn't like it. I can't remember for the life of me why I didn't. But I've used all-purpose flour ever since!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I'm 70 years old...a pretty good baker but your video tips will make me even better at my tender age.. lol! Keep up the great work! I'm a new fan!
I love this! You're welcome honey! 💜🙏
Hi Karolyn! I love this! I came to watch because someone asked me to make a sheet and I cringed! Like you, I HATE making sheet cakes! What made you want to do this one after avoiding them for so long? Please share 😊
I used to love making them and wanted to try it again! They actually aren't bad and are pretty easy to decorate, so I really don't mind them as much anymore.
Made it today, it was so super easy. So excited to see what it will look like tomorrow so that I can start working with it 🎉
Hi thank you love all your videos. Is this a stable frosting for hot weather? I'm looking for a very stable frosting so it won't start melting please help
Yes, the high ratio shortening in the icing melts at a higher temperature than butter, so it can withstand the heat longer than an all-butter icing!
Linda.. Linda listen to me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Beautiful as always my girl!👏🥰
Thank you love! 🤗
3:57 "it's not your fault, they got their own wackadookie own things going on" true but to be rude and take it out on a complete stranger... let's all practice calm explanations, not taking things personal, and setting boundaries. but if all else fails and if you're lucky, you're holding a cake. holding a cake. winky winky face
Oh, I've been tempted! 😂😂
Playing to your strengths is so important - I am just coming to terms with my not being a "decorator" but I do bake totally from scratch
Exactly! Find what you do best and get really good at that!
You’re so good!!!
thank you love! 🙏
Hi did anyone use plain cream instead of sour cream?
How do you find your images? Specifically the name?
The images are linked in the description! For the name, I googled "Alex graffiti name" and searched images.
Can it be white and pink marshmellows or does it all have to be white?
You can use pink marshmallows, but it will turn your fondant pink!
@@KarolynsKakes thank you, noted. 🙂
I just loved the design of this cake🎉❤
Thank you love!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Good God, you're a genius.
Glad it helped!
Sounds great, but I am wondering, cake mixes are now 13.25 not the 15.25 they use to be, do you do anything to compensate for this ? Thanks looking forward to an answer.
Here's a video I made about it, I now measure out 432g per batch! czcams.com/video/hJ2XDboFzm0/video.html
@@KarolynsKakes Thank you, I will watch it
