This is exactly what I was looking for to put a band on a cake. Thank you! I LOL'd when you said you had "man hands". You have such a great personality! Thanks for sharing all your tips and tricks 🥰
Love this...and its my name. Now I wanna go make me one😁. New stubby, so I'm binge watching your videos. I do cakes as well, so I appreciate the tips you're sharing. ❤
Been wanting to make a cake and try to decorated like a Bakery. So I been watching lots of your videos to get lots of tips I know I can't to it like you do but even if it's just simple I don't care. But hey live seeing my name right there. Lol
This is my biggest issue! I’ve invested TOO much money on font cutters and none of them are what I want! Thank you for this tutorial! I will try this next time I’ve got a name plaque to make!
Thank you! I attach to both fondant and buttercream. Here's a video showing different ways to stick decorations to your cakes! czcams.com/video/gfc0heeMRmY/video.html
@@KarolynsKakes are your cakes fondant or buttercream in this video? I was wondering if there's any danger of a name plate this big/heavy sliding down a buttercream cake...
If you want it to dry with a curve to it, get a cake dummy the same size of the cake you're putting it on and dry it on there so it won't break! Or you can seal it in a plastic ziplock bag so it won't dry out before you put it on the cake.
I just mde something similar and it's currently drying but now I'm worried I didn't roll the fondant thin enough and I'm worried it'll be too heavy and slip off the side of the cake..... Is this possible?! Oh no...
Yes you can! You just have to make sure the name will fit on the pan and won't hang over the side. If the name is too big, I would recommend putting it in a ziplock bag so it doesn't dry out and put it on the cake when you are ready 😊
Yes! If it drags when you're cutting it, add more powder and knead it in and let it sit for about 15 min then try again. Here's a video on getting the fondant smooth and workable! czcams.com/video/yZTS1KoBuXk/video.html
I have never seen anyone work with fondant like that without it breaking... I wonder if normal fondant with tylose will work the same as your marshmallow fondant? I will let you know.
I've followed your video to a T but my letters still just don't come out perfect? Maybe its the tylose? I use wilton. Ugggg. I even bought the same blade cutter u have
I use the Wilton gum tex Tylose powder now! You have to make sure you add enough to make the fondant stiff. If you add the powder and roll it out and let it sit and it still doesn't feel pretty stiff after 15-20 minutes, you need to add more. Was the fondant dragging as you cut it?
Well...this explains one issue I had. I added Tylose powder to a batch of fondant, waited 10 minutes, then tore off and tried rolling/cutting letters out. It was obviously not gonna work. Note to self....take the amount of needed fondant, THEN add some Tylose to that part, THEN roll it out and WAIT 10-15 minutes. Good grief, I'm such a boob. By the way, I have all my tips and couplers in a zip lock bag. I think I like your container much better! Gonna see what Hobby Lobby has to offer. What brand of tips do you use? What would you say are your most used piping tips?
OMG Hahaha! I have a lot of Wilton and Ateco tips. I mostly use the round ones for cutting small circles. #1 up to #12. Then the larger ones, I have to look when I get a chance to see the numbers they are.
It does. I have recently started using Everclear vodka, the alcohol content is really high and it evaporates really fast and doesn't taste like lemon. (There's no alcohol in there after it evaporates.)
I love your videos. I always come here when i need baking tips. You are such a blessing.
That's so sweet, you're welcome Sandra!

You're welcome honey, let me know how it goes!
Thank you so much for this tutorial!!!
Ito Ehi you’re welcome! 😊🎂
Great tutorial, thanks! Exactly what I need for the cake I'm working on tonight😅🙌🏽 I hope I can do it as perfectly as you did!😊
Yay!! You got this!
@@KarolynsKakes Yesss it worked! Thank you so much 🥰
Tks for the class❤️
You always make me laugh, that's a cool way of cutting out a name, thank you!😀
😁 You're welcome Ama!
Great tips! I subscribe your channel. Your tutorial so clear and easy to follow 😁
Awww Thank you for your support!
Very well done - love your videos. So helpful for beginner cakes🥰
Glad you like them!
@@KarolynsKakes I meant beginner CAKERS! Not cakes- Siri changes all my wording. Your cakes are in no way beginner anything!
This is my biggest issue! I’ve invested TOO much money on font cutters and none of them are what I want! Thank you for this tutorial! I will try this next time I’ve got a name plaque to make!
Yes!! It takes a little more time, but the possibilities are endless!
You have such an amazing way of sharing what you do. Thank you! Could you then attach this to a buttercream cake or is fondant best?
Thank you! I attach to both fondant and buttercream. Here's a video showing different ways to stick decorations to your cakes! czcams.com/video/gfc0heeMRmY/video.html
@@KarolynsKakes are your cakes fondant or buttercream in this video? I was wondering if there's any danger of a name plate this big/heavy sliding down a buttercream cake...
How do you make the name adhere to buttercream? Thank you for this tutorial
I'll use a little icing or piping gel to make it stick!
With leaving it out for all those minutes doesn't it dry out and break by the time you put it on the side of the cake?
If you want it to dry with a curve to it, get a cake dummy the same size of the cake you're putting it on and dry it on there so it won't break! Or you can seal it in a plastic ziplock bag so it won't dry out before you put it on the cake.
Great tutorial. What font did you use?
I believe this is BROMELLO 😊
I got my tools just like those on Amazon 👍🏽
They are the best!!
I just mde something similar and it's currently drying but now I'm worried I didn't roll the fondant thin enough and I'm worried it'll be too heavy and slip off the side of the cake..... Is this possible?! Oh no...
If that's the case, stick toothpicks in the back along with some icing on the back to help keep it on the cake!
Beautiful 💗 Can we use a 6 inch cake pan if we do not have a cake dummy?
Yes you can! You just have to make sure the name will fit on the pan and won't hang over the side. If the name is too big, I would recommend putting it in a ziplock bag so it doesn't dry out and put it on the cake when you are ready 😊
I find that my fondant drags or I get elephant skin. Is it because it didn't set up enough with the tylose powder?
Yes! If it drags when you're cutting it, add more powder and knead it in and let it sit for about 15 min then try again.
Here's a video on getting the fondant smooth and workable!

@@KarolynsKakes thank you! I'm going to try again.! I love your videos. Definitely the most helpful I've found
Do you just use homemade marshmallow fondant?
Yes I do! I have a video on how I make it. :)
I have never seen anyone work with fondant like that without it breaking... I wonder if normal fondant with tylose will work the same as your marshmallow fondant? I will let you know.
It should be relatively the same outcome. Please let me know how it turns out!
@@KarolynsKakes I truly hope so.. Will do!

@@KarolynsKakes yes it was ripping and dragging????
@@twistedsprinklescakes3750 Yup, you need more tylose in there!
What kind of fondant do you use?
I use my homemade Marshmallow Fondant! I have a video on how I make it.
