    I am a new subscriber. I was looking for tutorial on using the Cricut Cake Mini and you popped up. :-)
    I have had this machine for over a year any haven't used it yet. But this tutorial makes it look pretty easy. So, I'm going to give it a try before I sell it in my garage sale. LOL. I've been sitting here watching your videos since about noon. They are very informative and keeps my interest. You've got a new fan in me. I look forward to seeing new videos (after I catch up on the current ones) and working on my own masterpieces. Thank you so much for sharing your talent!

      I have used it for a few cakes & cupcakes but that’s about it. I think it’s about to go in that garage sale I mentioned in my comment.

    Great job Andrea! I'd love to see more cricut cake tutorials... But you have taught me not to be so persnikity about the perfection of the cut... I stressed over the snags. ;)

    I'm a new subscriber and I haven't seen all your videos yet but love what i have seen. Scrolling through all your videos I've noticed 2 years ago is your last video. Please more videos, I am enjoying them and learning lots from you. Thank you for sharing sweet cakes with all of us.

    For those who are watching this for the first time you have a way better personal cutting option in the Brother Scan 'Cut. No more cartridges to cut things out. As long as you ONLY use it for food projects then no need for rebranded hardware that has no technical merits to qualify as a Cake Cutter or Edible ink printer.

  • @missychan63
    @missychan63 Před 9 lety +1

    The "backdrop" is actually called the "shadow" and the machine itself is called a "Cricut Cake".. hope that clears up any confusion. This is NOT the same as a regular Cricut Mini as some have asked. They are honestly the same machine, but the Cricut Cake Mini and full size Cricut Cake have been manufactured to be "food safe".

  • @divynknights
    @divynknights Před 6 lety

    You are awesome. You work the same way I do...Sound effects a must. LOL. Thank you for your time with this video. I wasn't able to understand you, in regards to the different sizes for the letters. If I'm doing a font, with a backdrop behind it. I understand you said the machine will adjust. Could you please explain how it knows to adjust. I'm sorry I just got my Cricut yesterday, and don't know all the names of all the buttons yet.
    So do I have to tell the machine I'm doing the back drop letters first, or does it just make you do them anyway! I should've opened my Cricut, and followed you that way. Forgive me. I'm usually a lot more prepared then this.
    Thank you in advance. BTW You have a new fan in me. Thank you again for your time.
    Love and Peace

    Hi, i LOVE your work !!! I've just a question. In my country they only sell the "mini" cricut... is it just the same as the one you use? or it's a bit limited in the things that can create?

  • @vbelenpe
    @vbelenpe Před 6 lety +2

    Which gumpaste did you use? We had such a hard time with the machine. Thanks

  • @esmeraldagodoy7831

    Can you use fondant or molding chocolate too??

  • @hmosley64
    @hmosley64 Před 9 lety +2

    Thanks for this video .... I have had my machine for a few years and could never get the letters to come out nice enough to justify getting it out. I was doing it completely wrong ... rolling fondant out super thin ... putting a lot of softening ... even putting it in the freezer for a few minutes in hopes to cut it cleaner. I will diffidently try it again.

    • @marilynbradley8487
      @marilynbradley8487 Před 5 lety

      Same here. Had mine for years. Losing interest. Might sell it.

  • @cherlynnmichelizzi3029
    @cherlynnmichelizzi3029 Před 10 lety +1

    Thanks so much Andrea! I have had the cake cricut forever and rarely use it - will use it more now! When you use toothpicks/wire/skewers on the letters/numbers - do you stick them to the back? Or inside them?

    • @andreassweetcakes79
      @andreassweetcakes79 Před 10 lety

      you can stick the toothpicks with melted chocolate or royal icing. The only time I insert the support right into the letter is when I cut them super thick!....which is not ofter.

    Hello I know this video is a few years old, but I bought one of these off marketplace and started to use it with a silpat mat because it didn't come with a cricut mat, they are no longer available on amazon and ebay will cost $50 to ship from the UK, I was wondering if you have a solution?

  • @kimgimson6896
    @kimgimson6896 Před 5 lety

    Hi Andrea I am in the UK so don’t know if you can help me. Is there anywhere I can purchase spare blades for mini cake machine that would ship to uk. I know they don’t make the machine anymore is there a general blade that would fit machine.
    Thanks for your time Best Regards Kim

    I'll be getting a machine in the next few weeks. I have one question, would it be possible to use slightly chilled modeling chocolate in place of fondant??

  • @karacaldwell5142

    What kind of mat is that you are using? It seems to be great for rolling dough.

    andrea, could you please tell me what do you pass on the map before putting the gum paste?

    • @andreassweetcakes79
      @andreassweetcakes79 Před 7 lety

      DoceDoce I use shortening and brush it onto the mat. Not to heavily, as it can cause the gum paste to then slide around or shift as the machine cuts.
