Thank you for this. I’ve been baking for a while but have not had all the proper baking equipment. I bought a small baking set for beginners, but I need like cake boards and cake strips. All that good stuff. A friend recommended that if I wanted to make my cakes look better that I should look at baking tutorials on here. Thank you so much!

Good call! Just added a recommended tools list to the description :)

Love this video! So many great tips! 1) when you pipe around the edge, to hold the filling, do you pipe right on the edge of the cake or a little inside? 2) do you keep your cake layers completely frozen until ready to use, or do you let them defrost a bit first? Looking forward to part 2! Thanks again for sharing ❤

@StillBusyBaking

1. Juuust inside the edge! So like on top of the cake, not hanging off at all. 2. Frozen while decorating! Freshly out of the freezer. Only time I let it come to room temp is before serving :)

Such a helpful video! How long does it take for you to thaw the cake after decorating given that the cake layers are frozen?

Not until the last step where you let the crumb coat set!

Very new. How do you store and keep your butter cream from separating?

would this work when using a mascarpone/cream frosting?

What kind of cake recipe did you use? I saw a few flavours on your website, but I'm not sure if the one in this video is available for purchase? It looks like funfetti or fruit flavour, and it's making me want to bake one! Thank you for the helpful tips and video. 🤗

@StillBusyBaking

4 ай бұрын

Ya this is my funfetti, which is just my vanilla cake recipe with added sprinkles :)

Is it safe to put the cake in the freezer in between the crumb coat and the other layer? I heard of some people doing that and I wasn’t sure. Also if it is safe is that a better way to store/help the cake or is there a better alternative?

@StillBusyBaking

5 ай бұрын

I personally just do fridge, since the layers are frozen it sets really fast. But freezer would be fine too! Since the cake is fully covered in frosting, it won’t dry out.

You talk about freezing your cakes after there cool to the touch. How long do you leave them in the freezer before you start to stack them? And sorry if I missed this in another video. I just started watching your videos made your buttercream frosting yesterday i’m getting ready to stack and crumb coat my first cake Friday. But the cake is not made yet. I wanna make sure I do the whole process correct. Thank you! 😊

Me and you know that we flip the cake upside down in order to have the straightest edges for icing but new people to cake decorating don't. i was also cringing at you scooping from the main buttercream bowl for your crumbcoat and placing it back with your spatula. basically contaminating with crumbs even if the cake layers are frozen. all other videos talk about a seperate bowl. last point, maybe it never happened to you but you are skilled at it; beginners might see you use a star tip to pipe the border and do the same and fill with something of a looser consistency and it will seap out. should have included smoothing down the inner border with a simple spoon if someone doesn't have an offset spatula.

Please, make your own video to share your own tips!!! Not sure why you feel the need to be so condescending to me. 1. It’s not possible to share every single tidbit of information in every single video. I’ve mentioned why I flip it upside down in other videos - in this one, I forgot. People can ask why if they’re curious. I made sure to state that I’m happy to answer questions :) 2. I don’t “contaminate” my frosting in any way. My spatula is always clean before I go back into the bowl for more frosting. If yours isn’t, maybe you need a new cake recipe that’s not so crumbly and dry. 3. I purposely choose a star tip for my border because they hold in filling better. Even loose ones.
