- We've been on a square cake kick around here. I was pretty happy with how the upside-down technique worked for getting sharp edges on my square cakes but you guys wanted to see a video using square acrylics too! So here it is! You tell me which way you think is better!

It's genius with the parchment. I use acrylics and they work well for round shapes. I use press n seal, but will try the parchment for a square cake I have to make. The press n seal works great, but can be a challenge to take off. I can't wait to try it!
Give it a try! Let me know which works better for you
YAY!!! So happy you did this :D
perfection.. I have seen this done with Glad Go-between freezer paper instead of parchment....and it worked really well. Left the top wrinkle free, but they did put loads of icing directly onto the top acyrilic before attaching it to the cake.
Thank you so much for creating this tutorial. It contains helpful hints that look like real time savers that the Cakesafe tutorial does not include. I’ll be busting out my square acrylics today for the first time, & I’m much more confident now thanks to you!
a little tip I learned from the folks at cake safe. Use a foam core board the same size as the acrylic for your bottom. That eliminates the need to flip the cake to remove the bottom acrylic 😁. I do this and makes my life so much easier. I bought the foam core boards from Amazon and had my brother cut them down to size using the acrylic plates as guide
Hello. What is a foam core board. I like Sugar geek techniques but if there’s an easier way, I’m all for it
Liz, thank you for another great video. I use acrylics on all of my cakes. I am so icing challenged and for me it is so much faster, once you get the hang of it. I even do my quarter and half sheets, but no flipping those sizes for me. LOL Liz, stay blessed!
Look at you rocking that baby belly! Love your acrylic disk tutorial. Never worked with them before.
perfection!
Huge Fan! thanks for another great video. I just had an Aha moment. I have been using acrylics for my round cakes and will be using them to make my first square cake. I have been using "parchment paper" but unfortunately not folded around the disc but smaller than the disc. It works but the disc gets stock in the buttercream and it is a little mess when taking it off. Your method is so effortless. I will be taping them from now on!!! Thank you
Wow!! It looks so good!! Thank you liz for doing this video!! I have my first square wedding cake coming up and i needed this video!!😍🌈👏👍🤩🌈💖💙💜🙋♀️🍰
You're welcome!! I'm in love with the acrylics!
You're such a Pro! Would like to see some Decorating with fresh whipping cream! Brazilians dont like butter cream! Here it's too hot!
WOW!!!!
Здорово! Гениально!👍😍
شكراً على مجهودك الرائع تستحقين المتابعة شكراًشكراً😍😘🙏🏻💐💐💐💐🌹🌹🌹🌹
This is awesome! I avoid square cakes like the plague! I’ll have to try it! One question, how do you avoid messing up that buttercream edge where the board doesn’t come all the way out when you’re stacking onto other tiers, etc.?
Love your explanations... Great job! 1 doubt: does it work with stabilized whipped cream frosting?
Hi! I love your work! Can you tell me the name of tu turnable vale stand? Thank you!💖
amazing video Liz !..but want to ask how to fix if condensation happens between the freezing and frosting stages,or how to fix condensation on buttercream cakes in general
Looks awesome thanks! you look soooooo cute with the belly! XOXOXO
Beautiful end result. A little bit of back and forth in the freezer but it seems well worth the time.
What do you do with circles? Specifically how do you wrap the discs so the sides are smooth?
Liz, where is the best place to buy cake boards?
wow!! pls teach whipped
cream finishing too🙏🏻🙏🏻
Same process but with whipped cream :-D Might take longer to freeze though
Hi Liz. Awesome work as always. Congrats on your pregnancy. May i plz ask what is the size of the cake? I see it is smaller than the cake board.
Hi congrats for you little blessing💙💙💙💙. I want to know where i can buy those acrylics. And other question can i use your lmf fondant for make dummies I use tylose fondant. I leave un puerto rico and i want that my dummy last for months at my school.thanks 🤗
I got mine from www.cakesafe.com and yes you can use fondant on dummies
@@SugarGeekShow thank you 🤗
If my cake is a 6” square what size acrylic disk should I be buying?
I have one question?
About your vanilla cake recipe (2019)
Can i pre-measure the dry ingredients and put in a ziplock bags for about 3 day or a week in advance.
Any suggestions please.
Thanks in advance
Sure, that wont hurt the cake at all
hi liz. can i use acrylic discs for my whipped cream cakes or even for italian meringue frosted cakes
Not sure about whipped cream, you would need to freeze it solid for that to work but for italian meringue definitely
@@SugarGeekShow thank you liz for your answer. i highly appreciate you took the time eventhough you are such very bussy cake artist. Blessings from nicaragua.
Every time i try theses , top pulls icing off top of cake.. how long should you put in freezer
Steve Mooney until the butter is hard, 15-20 minutes. The parchment keeps it from sticking
@@SugarGeekShow thanks, love your videos
Where do you get the acrylics?
She gets them from CakeSafe. I just ordered several (round) and used for the first time yesterday. They are AWESOME. I used Glad Press N Seal instead of the parchment. Worked really well.
Looks like a lot of work to me...but the edges are nice and clean.
I agree, it is a lot of work but less than what it would be without them. Curses to those square cakes!
Congrats on your pregnancy. Do you know what your having
Thank you! I'm having a boy :)
@@SugarGeekShow Aaah I'm so happy for you and your beautiful family😍👍 Btw I could watch you do straight edges on cakes, litterly for days and days 😂🤣😂
In my bakery my hubby often needs to stop me from getting that super-duper-sharp edge lol😆 And I always respond the same way "sure babe...wait...just oneeeee.." 🤣🤣
Hope you feel great and enjoying your pregnancy!! Lots of love from the Netherlands, Tamara 😘👍
@@tamaracleef2967 haha I can definitely relate to this!! lol
