Hi Karolyn, Im 78 yrs old and did take a course on cake decorating many moons ago, loved it, and made cakes for my grandchildren. I enjoy watching you do your decorating, also did a chocolate class and made bars, and diplomas for my daughter's graduation, turtles etc. when I divorced all my tools went in the garbage didn't have anyone to give them to and no room for them so bye bye tools, I really love to watch your work, enjoy every moment, keep up the great work and God Bless. 🙏🙏👍👍👍

Very, very beautiful cake! So, I don't know how I missed to cut out fondant 1st then indentation but I did on the whole fondant piece and as you know how close the letters are & that was not correct & and a nightmare🙃 It just clicked this video on how you cut out fondant in layers. My son thinks I'm crazy for watching & re-watching your video's but I am a visual/hands on learner, so thank you for your very detailed videos. I appreciate all the time you put into sharing with us all♥

Beautiful as usual! ❤ Your fondant always looks perfect! How do know how much Tylose powder to use with the Fondant and how do keep it from drying out and cracking? Thank you!
@KarolynsKakes
Жыл бұрын
I’m trying to figure out how to explain this. I do it by the feel of the fondant. I add a little bit and let it sit. If it’s still too soft, I’ll add a little more. I haven’t figured out any precise measurements because it’s always different depending on the amount of Fondant and the humidity in the air!

Hi ! With how much time do you understand that you can work the figures in fondat and that they don't break when they stick to the cake Thanks for your videos!❤
@KarolynsKakes
Жыл бұрын
It depends on how much Tylose powder you have in there. If you don't want them to break, you can store them in a ziplock bag until you're ready to put them on. (About 3 days max in the bag). Or, you can dry them with a curve to it so they won't break when you put them on. The top dragon went on a 6" cake, so I would dry that on a 6" cake dummy. And dry the bottom one on an 8" dummy because it went on an 8" cake. I hope that makes sense!

Hello, Do you advise your customers to keep their cakes refrigerated before serving?. Or do your cakes hold up well sitting out at a indoor venue.??? I just did a cake, And the customer sent me a pic of the cake and it was melted and drooping😢...She said it was delicious though 😂
@KarolynsKakes
Жыл бұрын
When it's hot out, I tell people to keep the cake cold while it's coming to room temp. Meaning, they MUST have air conditioning in the car and the house where the cake is going. I don't recommend that they re-refrigerate the cake because it's going to have to thaw again when they take it out. Most venues are air conditioned. If you give them the cake out of the fridge and they drive with it in a cold air conditioned car, then by the time they get to the venue, it will be in the thawing process and should be able to sit in a cool room. Did they have windows open? Was it sitting in direct sunlight? There are so many things that could have happened which caused it to droop!
