    Thanks so much! I just had a red velvet cake come out of the pan with some ragged edges. I knew I’d find the fix here, and I did. Of course, next time I’ll wait a bit longer until the cake cools sufficiently and I’ll also spray and e sides. I only sprayed them. Don’t ask me why. I always spray and flour them.

    I want to thank you. Although this wasn’t quite right for my situation, it let me calm down from everything going wrong with my cake. I added a bunch of buttercream and was able to make the cake more than the pile of crumbs it was before. Thank you :)

    This has been helpful. I knew I was putting my cakes at risk when I didn't use the parchment paper underneath despite buttering and flouring the pans. Sighh. I was just too lazy to cut out the parchment lol. But I loved how you turned it around with that awesome frosting 😁

    Hey, thanks for this tutorial 😊! I have a question thought, i am new to making cakes and i just finished wrapping 2layers of cake so i can freeze them, But i definitely was impatient and took out 1 of the layers to quickly out of its pan. Its not only a crack from the top like in tis video, almost the whole half of the cake is falling off. I tried my best to wrap it like that so idk what will happen when i take it out of the freezer. What should i do? Or do u have any tips?

    LOL! I literally broke a layer in half last night and put it in the freezer after wrapping it nice and tight. It seems to have worked? I added butter cream and also put it as the bottom layer. My hope is that the weight of the other layers plus the butter cream on the cake board will help keep it in place 😬

    Just remember folks: Frosting is glue. And I ain't saying it just because of the video, I'm saying it from my own experience. I once was baking for an anniversary and one of the cake layers were bigger than the rest so I carved it but I ended up cutting too much off. The solution? Fixing it with frosting.
