Really enjoying your channel as a future baker. And first time I actually saw how decorated cake is going to the freezer. I should try this hack myself also. I couldn’t imagine how decorated cake is packed and putted to the freezer.

[@kendieparadise4216]

Thank you so much for these hacks, I will definitely be using them.

[@CakesWithLorelie]

Lots of good tips.I love the thin ribbon on the board idea. Had not thought of that one before. Dah!!! LOL Thanks Emily!

[@celeste.cutz2020]

Thank u for such an informative video. Ur baking is teaching people how to bake even if they’re a novice.

[@CCoburn3]

Another trick for loading bags is to put down a layer of cling wrap. Put the buttercream on the cling wrap and roll it up like a sausage. Put this into your piping bag. This works particularly well when you are loading multiple colors into the bag.

[@YagwitOG]

I like to freeze em into sticks too and get them out when I start baking

[@CCoburn3]

@@YagwitOG That is an excellent idea. I never thought of that. Thanks.

[@denagustafson6070]

Thanks! Great idea!

[@michelebradley7813]

Genius! I'm trying that.
Thanks for the tip!😉

[@ksi6021]

My mum is a cake designer and she always does this when she is doing multiple colours :)

[@nithyagandhi8200]

Thank you for posting it. Loved it

[@KirstenSuhr]

Very clear video! If you're finding shelf liners aren't "stay still" enough, use a piece of Dycem. This weird rubbery stuff is sold in rolls and is often used by OTs and PTs, but it works great for keeping basically anything in place without gluing or taping it down. It's nearly infinitely reusable, so one roll will last you years. I use it in my cake carrier to keep cakes and cupcakes still for transporting, under cutting boards, to keep cat food dishes from sliding on a slick floor... So many options!

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Great tip! Thank you!

[@RFblank]

So useful! Thank you.

[@amandeepkaur-go8qw]

Extremely wonderful nd useful....now I can surely avoid my mistakes which I did while decorating cake..thank you so much ...stay blessed

[@adamhalikos7836]

These tips are Gold!! Thankyou so much.

[@abigailwenderson4693]

These hacks are amazing. But decorating cake with sprinkles are still one of my favorites and easy way. Meanwhile, quality and themed sprinkles are hard to find. Last month i bought sprinkles from fancy sprinkles, i loved their quality and taste. It made my cupcakes more delicious.

[@virgie4715]

I love fancy sprinkles! Sprinkle pop makes really pretty sprinkles too

[@MultiGemgirl]

that freezing cake fully decorated was really helpful

Cake strips. They've saved me endless fretting and I could give away my gadget for slicing the tops off. Cake strips are easy to make, too. Wet paper towels encased in foil, wrapped tight around the pans. Cake layers separate from the side of the pans and come out nice and flat, and without that browned layer on top. Lifesaver!

[@mrrou4576]

Serai3 completely agree!

[@chuckwelser9610]

I don't really understand 😕 I'd love to get a better idea of how to do that if you can help break it down a little more for me:)

[@seraiharper5553]

@@chuckwelser9610 Take a measurement of the outside of your cake pan. Then lay out aluminum foil a few more inches than that. Take paper towels, fold them to a size that covers the side of your pan, and wet them thoroughly. Lay them end to end down the foil, then fold the foil over them. Press down to seal all the way to the end, wrap the strip around your pan, and use the overlapping foil to fold together and seal the ring closed. Then bake it. You'll be amazed. :)
