Do you have other techniques for making a fur effect on your cakes or decorations? I'd love to hear them!

I heard people use a grass tip for the fur

This is made with candy melts, which aren't actual chocolate. If you're using real chocolate, you'll want to use heavy cream because water will seize the chocolate!

I just want to say, thank you! For sharing these tutorials, they have been very helpful. They've helped me out alot to get certain styles done, when I didn't had a clue what to do at times. Also, I was able to get a elmo cake done for my niece 1st birthday. If wasn't for your videos I would have been completely clueless.. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Oh, I love how simple and easy they are which makes it easy to follow 😊😊😊

So cute and the way you explain everything makes me feel like I can do this. Have you ever made the cookie look like a bite has been taken out of it? I have a little flower cookie/fondant cutter that would be perfect for that. And thank you so much for sharing your process 🙏

Beautiful as always! Do you wrap or keep the cakes covered in the fridge before customer pick-up? If not, how long can you keep uncovered in the fridge?

Thank you Latoscha! I usually keep them in the fridge unwrapped until a day or 2 before pickup. They have been fine in the fridge unwrapped for about 4-5 days!

That is the most adorable Elmo I ever saw. I love the technique on both. Really original way to do Cookie Monster fur. I love it. Love the Elmo texture mat. Just wondering why you didn't do the top of Elmos head. Cake is absolutely adorable. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜

Thanks girl! I just wanted the top to be smooth, if I pressed down on the top to add the impression, I could have distorted the shape and didn't want to take that chance. You absolutely can do the top if you prefer!

Is there a way to soften fondant after adding tylose powder for reuse?

@KarolynsKakes

3 жыл бұрын

Pop it in the microwave! Make sure you do it at small increments (5-10 seconds). I find that the core heats really fast, so if you do small spurts, flip it over and do the other side, it's less likely to get too hot and melt.

How do you keep track of stock and would you recommend bulk shopping in order to make a profit

@KarolynsKakes

3 жыл бұрын

Hey girl, I usually shop at the wholesale store like Sam's or Costco to get bulk items like flour, sugar, chocolate chips, butter, etc. I get powdered sugar at Target or the grocery store because I find that the big bags of powdered sugar usually have too many clumps in them and I don't feel like taking the time to sift everything out. I shop weekly, mainly because I don't have the space to keep too much here. So I take inventory before I go shopping and look at the cakes I'm making for the week and make a list of what I need to buy. So I do bulk buy when I can!

OMG, Karolyn, I knew you would find this funny...I was watching a video yesterday where someone ordered cakes from 1 and 5 star bakeries and BOTH of them had fondant cut outs on them. I was screaming at my computer "They didn't SMOOTH their cuts!!!!" Girl, these things looked R.O.U.G.H.
