*First, whip the butter for 1-2 minutes until fluffy. Then, add the powdered sugar in stages of ½ - ¾ cup. Once you are happy with the consistency, stop adding sugar. Whenever you don’t need the buttercream, place it in the fridge. Whenever you let the cake rest whilst decorating, it needs to chill in the fridge!!

The hunger games was the gateway to a world of dystopian novels for me when i was 14
I smiled the entire time I was watching this, especially at the book quotes - she knows her stuff and we respect that 🙌🔥
YESSS I used to obsessively read the food descriptions in the first book I’d literally bookmark all the pages and read them over and over 😭

@@Lala47362surprisingly! Some meats and cheeses go great with fruits and berries! I 😊😊if prepared correctly lol. Remember in ratatouille, when Remy wanted his friend to eat the grape and cheese at the same time lol... let's just say it tastes AMAZING!😭
This made me feel so cosy! I want to reread the books now while eating this feast 😍
There are basil varieties which have leaves as big as lettuce leaves. Easy to wrap a little cheese in that. Can't buy it in a shop though. But you can grow it on a windowsill

Ohhh interesting!!
I can highly recommend the peta books on ao3. All three books told from Petas perspective, more romance stuff. Really great
If you want the muffins to be flatter, try this: instead of folding in the berries, pour the batter into the tins first, then add the berries on top! They will sink while the muffins bake and stop them from forming that "dome"

Such a cool video! I'd be so up for a part 2 😇
I love this series of yours and I love THG so this was 👌! Literally made a little happy dance when I saw it in my feed…!! As a professional baker I can tell you the science of pita bread: they puff up from the very high heat in the oven cooking the outside from all sides and creating a dry surface at the same time as it rapidly creates steam and gas on the inside, and so they pretty much become small balloons. The reason to why they sometimes don’t puff up is usually the heat being too low to get those instant, simultaneous reactions. So make sure to really heat your oven up in advance and also keep a baking stone or alternatively just a hot baking tray in there and simply slide the baking sheet with the bread onto it as you put them in, that way you'll get the necessary heat from underneath as well. Lots of love from sweden and thank you for all your videos! 💚
oh my god PITA had me dying
We need a part two ♥️
Method of surviving the games - hide and take out the last ones. Like what Johanna did. I´m coming back to the Capitol for more cake!!
First Mina video I've watched in a long while and omg I'm home 🥹
food from alice in wonderland could make a great video too. for example the first thing that comes to mind when i think about alice in wonderland is the eat me cake and the drink me potion and the of course the hatter's tea party. and since there are so many different versions of alice in wonderland like the books(obviously), the 1951 disney movie, the tim burton movies, the american mcgee's alice games and the 1983 anime (i grew up with on kika in the 2000s🥺) to name a few there should be quite a lot food to pick from😅
Mina this video is everythinggg 🥹🪨🫓 hunger games forever 😌🙏

Okay actually I think youve destroyed the movie for me - I can't unhear the pita😂 love how deep u got into it to! Actually such a deep book... Im at the end of the video and just WOW. That stew looks lovely! Actually so interesting to think about how u would act
If you ever feel like making a sequel video, I would love that! Also, there is a prequel movie coming out later this year and I suspect there´s gonna be more food.
Can´t believe you made a Peeta bread 🤣🤣(also the meme...) And a Peeta rock cake? WTF 🤣🤣
I absolutely loved this one! Can’t wait for part 2

Loved it:) These series are sooo good
Please do a part 2. I loved that video❤
❤ This video was delightful. Thank you! I love meat but that vegan take on the lamb stew looks too good!!
i had this idea in my head about a video about hunger games food for years now maybe. the last time i watched the movies i was in a desperate search for just anything about the food but there were 2 or 3 videos by feast of fiction i believe and i think most of them were about bread (for obvious reasons). and honestly i couldn't believe that that's it?! with these movies and books you have so much potential not just food wise but also fashion wise and youtube has slept on it for too long😭✋ (i know there are a few videos about capitol fashion or katniss hairstyles but there COULD be sooo much more) you can't imagine how excited i was when you said you'd make a video about the hunger games!
I LOVE this video!!❤️
I just finished reading the series last year for the first time, so I’m very happy for this video. I’m especially glad for the recipe for the stew and rice. It sounded so good when I was reading. Good job!
I love your videos so much! And I normaly don’t comment but your honestly the only channel that I look up over and over again because your videos are so comforting and relaxing🙏🏻✨ And there is no other channel that I enjoy like I do yours

I love the books and the movies 😍😍😍 So nice to see you create the foods of it! I have to try that seitan stew! That looks so comforting! I am really impressed with that cake tho! There is so much more potential for food from the movies, maybe we can hope for a second one? The food on the Party in the second movie for example… Thank you for reminding me to rewatch the movies and reread the books 😍
Wow you pit so much effort into this video 😮❤
Omg I didn‘t know i needed this. One of my new favourites for sure !!! 🤍🤍🤍✨
Looked forward to this video all day long ❤ and Its perfect
Omg everything just looks sooo tastyyy😍 I love to listen to the audiobook version of the hunger games on spotify while cooking or cleaning:) Thank you for this amazing video!!
Mina, the last book (Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes) has soooo many food references, I think you would find it really inspiring!! (basically all Snow does in it is eat 😂)
i love this so much omggg
Another awesome video Mina even though 😭 I haven’t read the hunger games book or seen the movie. Yummy 😋 food. Love 💞Mina.

Would you do a part 2?🥺🙏🏽
The method by which you crumbed the cake worked well for getting that uneven moss on a rock look, but if you're looking for better crumb stickage later on, try drying the cake in the oven once you have it crumbled. If you just crumble and stick, the moisture present in the cake will not help adhesion, but drying them will remove that moisture and allow it to stick to the icing better.
I LOVE that cake❤❤❤❤
