I use popcorn covered in white candy melts. Then use the airbrush to give them more definition.

I’m going to make this Bucket popcorn cake for my grandson for his birthday in December. I love watching your bakes..

Can you use parchment paper to smooth if you don't have Viva paper towels?

I love watching your videos your cakes as well as your tips are wonderful. Thank you for sharing. I have a tip for you, did you ever consider doing the popcorn with marshmallows? I was did a carnival themed party and used marshmallows. I sniped one end with scissors and painted them a buttery yellow. Saves alot of time

Hey Lynda! Yes, I use the same Buttercream to fill the cake. And you did add too much purple, you only need a TEEEENY bit!

You definitely can, I used to do that before I learned how to make it out of fondant. (I just prefer the look of fondant popcorn, that's why I do it this way now.)

i feel like im bombarding all your videos lol. quick question; crisco vs piping gel to adhere fondant..... i feel like ive seen you use both. under which circumstances would you use one vs the other? thanks

@KarolynsKakes

2 жыл бұрын

No worries! I use crisco when I need the ability to adjust the pieces into the right place. So if I am doing something like stripes, most of the time I will use crisco because once I put them on the cake, I can adjust them into place. It's not as strong of a hold as piping gel as the pieces could easily be moved out of place. (So if a kid gets a hold of the cake, they could easily peel pieces off.) I use piping gel or water when I want it to stick really well. I hope that makes sense!

Hello thank you for sharing your ideas Can you make video to show how to put tall cake in regular cake box and save cake lids , as You said you save ,but wondering how you cover ??😊 I saw you are using crisco shorting under fondant ,dose this technique work will all kind of fondant or only marshmallow fondant?

@KarolynsKakes

Жыл бұрын

Are you using American Buttercream? You must use a crusting buttercream for this method. If you ice the cake with a meringue buttercream, it doesn't crust and you'll have to use a different method. If you are using ABC, sometimes you have to let it sit for like 5 minutes before you use the towel so the icing can crust over.

Hi, how do you make your buttercream?
