We're testing and debunking viral baking hacks from 5 minute crafts and so yummy. I want to see if any of these daily life kitchen hacks actually work to make your life easier. Testing a hair straightener and a Jolly rancher to make a cupcake topper, pouring store bought icing over a cake to create a marble mirror ganache glaze, grating off the bottom of a burnt cookie, if coffee really does enhance the flavor of chocolate in a recipe, lemon baked candies and leveling a cake using tooth picks and floss. Watch to see if any of these crazy hacks work!

Which hack shocked you the most!!?? What hacks should I test next? 😅
I would say the lemon, that was so cool how it actually worked. But the leveling cake at the end was so funny. But it seemed to good to be true
Leena Tobasei OMG yessss
Can you please make any cake video next? I really love your cakes you are so creative and I really enjoy your videos..😊

Please can you make a burger cake or an Oreo cake! Please colab with Rosanna Pansino
Drying citrus slices is really common around Christmas, etc. low heat for hours and hours to get a perfectly dried slice
Kai Lin Lee lots of people just buy air flyers for this
I did this last Yule and it was so lovely. My apartment smelled like heaven for days.
Don't you use fresh or dried shreded peel from organic lemons and oranges and limes for baking over there o.O That and candied lemons are completely normal here in Germany 🤔
@@lulana9545 here in Hungary is normal too. When I was a child my grandma did often candied lemon and that was fantastic 😍
Candied and dried lemons and oranges are really common addition to all kinds of cakes in Europe (aswell to christmas drinks). They have specific taste tho
"I have to say it's really hard to burn cookies" sooo your telling me I'm actually good at something😍
Sammmmmeeeee 😂😂😂
How do you burn a cookie if you make the recipe . If you do have this problem use a dood brush and butter before they go in the oven
Underrated comment lmao
Sis I love baking and LOVE baking cakes and cookies im 12 👁👄👁 I've never fully burnt cookies only the bottoms a few times but one time j made cinnamon rolls and the bottom burnt so we took a knife and shaved it still good
GONEE 😂😂😂😂😂
I kinda want you to do an under water cake with jolly rancher coral now.
Wish I could like this more than once!
Yessss
Definitely!!!
ooh,that sounds cool!
Yes please
Your video on turning a cheap cake to a wedding cake was in my recommended and now I’m addicted to your videos! I’m so upset I didn’t find you sooner! ♥️
Same
What no way!! That happened to me too!
OMG SAME!
Same
Exactly I got recommend that video yesterday and today I have kinda watched her 21 videos
I love the trend of exposing 5 minute craft's fake youtube content! Keep it up 😁
me too
It's time they go down!!!!!!
JK- what I really mean is that they need to stop scamming innocent victims.
"How to cook that" also made many videos exposing video farmers like 5 min crafts
Omg Same dude
Same bro
The last one actually does work. My Mom showed me that trick when I was a teen. But not with dental floss, just regular thread. And no toothpicks.
I took a cake decorating class and that was how we were taught, with dental floss and tooth picks. She taught us that way and then she taught us the normal way. It does work if it's done correctly, a knife or cake leveler is easier though lol.
I've done it, but I used a cheese wire
My mom showed me it too with floss but there wasn't toothpicks.
We just estimated the middle.
this is how I do it. But I just cut a little bit around it to make sure it's in the middle. The toothpicks seem kind of unnecessary
I do it with thin fishing line
The so-called marbled hack clearly left out two very important components: first, either it needed more chocolate or the chocolate had to finish melting; and second, to get that marbled, feathered effect, the cake needed to be tilted in several directions. That's how they get the effect with paint pours - the various colors are poured out in streams on a board, and then the board is tilted, forming the swirls and marbling. Just pouring the icing in a circular motion over the top of the cake will never give you that look, no matter how much chocolate is added to the white icing. But since the whole point of these hacks is to claim they take very little time, they can't add that second component. It would also risk your cake sliding right off the plate, lol. Maybe a blow-dryer on the no-heat setting to move the icing around?
Wow big brain
I’d say...more chocolate, too!!!
I'd say we can add already melted chocolate instead of chocolate chunks
@@amatullahzakirhussain9357 I don't know how well that would work, but definitely smaller pieces of chocolate (like chocolate chips, maybe) so they melt easier AND a lot more of them overall.
More chocolate 🍫 🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫
Ah yes, the relatable problem of having a freshly made cake and apparently not owning a single kitchen implement, but luckily I keep my medicine cabinet stocked with toothpicks and dental floss. Happy Birthday, Mabel, here's a violently uneven "leveled" cake.
The phrase "violently uneven" is now part of my vocabulary. I have never laughed harder from a TH-cam comment before
The "marbling chocolate icing" looks really unappealing to me. Stick to the classic method of marbling a cake.
Ya I agree with you! It looked Gross and I don't like it one bit. THERE'S NOT EVEN VERY MUCH CHOCOLATE
@@bilzoobutfurry821 Not nearly enough chocolate. There's not such a thing as "too much chocolate". Also I too am in Hufflepuff
@@alessandradigraziano4483 YOU GET IT YOU NEED MORE CHOCOLAAAAAAAATE
and also CYA AT HOGWARTS
yes absolutely
I mean, a classic marble cake without icing looks beautiful. Also, hello fellow Hufflepuff!
I'd try melting the chocolate and icing separately, because chocolate needs a higher melting temp, then just pour one into the other before pouring over the cake.
I was thinking the same. Also the icing needs to heated in intervals stirring in between. Then I thought, were those icing tubs made to be microwaved? The wrong plastic can release some nasty chemicals in the microwave!
Tim Frey I was thinking to cut the chocolate into much smaller pieces so you can heat both gently and let them melt evenly, but I think the purpose of her doing it that way was to copy the video exactly...
Yeah, but then it's not a hack, lol. The hack is to be able to cut corners and time and do both at the same time and get "great" results.
Also as soon as i saw those 2 tiny pieces of chocolate i was like there's no way they melt to create All Those chocolate patterns. I'm sure they added more chocolate to be melted without showing it.
Wouldn't dumping vanilla and chocolate frosting into a container and melting make a similar effect with them melting more evenly ...
Whenever I overcook my grilled cheese sandwiches and burn them a little, I can actually scrape off a bit of it with a knife and it tastes fine, but it can't be burned to the point where it's super black or anything. It's only good if it's only a little burnt (which I do a lot because I forget that I'm cooking 😂)
Lol me
Cookies don't work like that though you burn a cookie it's going to taste burnt the black may be gone but that burnt bottom has made its way throughout the cookie you're going to always taste it
That's when they're best.
@NATHALIA COX okie?
oh my Lord lmfao..Sometime ago I was hesting up a hotpocket in the microwave,and forgot it was in there and I put it on for too long,ended up with a garden rock and a smoke filled house LMAO
7:26 Growing up poor, we scraped the burned bits off toast. Grown up, and poor, still do! Usually only happens with hand sliced bread, or a toaster you're not yet familiar with. Tastes fine. EDIT: We use a butter knife to do the scraping. No need to buy a zesting blade!
Hard relate. You can rub two burnt halves on each other too and that works really well to get burnt parts off both. Just do it over the sink, it is a lot of mess.
@@urmirupapal2355 Absolutely over the sink!
I didn’t grow up poor but my mom did not let us waste so she always scraped the burnt side off the toast with a knife. Still do it to this day even if there’s a whole loaf. Definitely lived a frugal life
Me too 👍🏼 no such thing as burned toast in my house!
i remember eating burnt toast as child often. it never bothered me or my mom
I like how she tried making the cake look appealing with the background music 😂😂😂😂
Coffee is definitely my secret weapon when making a chocolate cake. Makes it richer. Flavour dept.
5:58 - THE COOKIE HACK WORKS!! For those of us who aren’t bakers, we bake our cookies directly on the cookie sheet as that’s what we see on commercials - you’ll see the hack video doesn’t have paper either 😂 The direct heat from the cookie sheet cooks the bottom faster and burns it, while the rest of the cookie is basically fine, maybe a little crispy. Based off of how you set up your cookies, I now know to use parchment paper 👌
I use parchment for nearly all baking except pies and a select number of breads. Lyn from FTCC
I'm a baker and I've never used parchment paper to line my cookie sheets rarely have a burnt cookie to the point that it needs the burnt part scrapped off. And if I do then I know my oven is to hot.
@@TherealDanielleNelson I’m not a baker but I’ve baked a lot at home and I’ve never used parchment paper either except for macarons. Everything turns out great. To me the burnt on the bottom is either from a dark cookie sheet or they have it so close to the cooking element that it’s cooking the bottom first.
I always use baking paper because the baking tray in my house are NASTY.
I love how she always starts with what was on the thumbnail
I actually really appreciate that too!!
It’s funny because you had to try several times to burn cookies. Lol.
That's surprises me. I mean she could been like "gas mark 8 for 30 minutes " and then wouldn't it burn?
Being a professional baker she probably has a high end oven and quality cookie sheets. It would be hard to burn just the bottom like the hack. It would turn into a nice even brown brick before it burned.
Candied lemons are yummy when done properly... But those looked just nasty.
Yeah, lemon peel is delicious (and orange peel too) when candied correctly! Those candies broiled on top....ew!
Yessssss I love candied lemons! So sweet and tart. This method was really dumb and you're better off just using sugar! Lol
I agree! Haha. I loved making them in Culinary school ☺️
"Then you can straighten your candy" when she said that the first thing that came to my mind was "I hope that candy's not gay".
scuse me but gay candy
ghehevid idk where im goin with
Where can I get that?
Some gay candy, please.
Lol
@@FishyFly Lady Gaga Oreos
Then she goes: can you see it coming out?
the candy: I’m gay
Okay that Jolly Rancher trick is AWESOME!! The burnt cookie 🍪 trick totally works, I’ve used it A LOT! Lol! And also, the icing chocolate 🍫 marble hack was pretty cool and yours looked real pretty! What an entertaining & helpful video-thank you, Laurie!!!
The coffee thing is true. I don’t like coffee but when you add some instant coffee to chocolate cake you can’t taste it when it’s cooked
Does it make it taste yummier?
I’ve always used coffee in my chocolate cakes! And they’re always a hit😉
Also try coffee in chocolate chip cookies...GAME CHANGER
I add coffee to my cake mix and it does make it moist
Instant coffee as in you just put a little of the “powder” in or do you make the coffee in water and then add that?😳
Jasmin AAN I personally brew the coffee & replace water with it. Instant coffee powder or ground coffee is great in cookies!!
I suppose you could say that the lemon peels are “unappealing”. 😂
Best pun EVER
😂😂😂
HAHAH
That was the zest pun I've ever heard and I hate you
I’ve done the marble one successfully. I put a Lindor truffle on the top of the icing in the jar so it melted better than being pushed down. I waited until it had just started bubbling and VERY lightly swirled with a skewer. I poured it in a swirl then used a blow dryer to swirl it more
The sound of that burnt cookie being grated slowly is the sound of sadness
Grating the burn cookies, made me think that you can grait any cookies of your choice (not burned) and put it on top of cheese cake, or any cake with frosting.
Aly I eat it in ice cream 😍
Kiara Dewrance omg that would be so good!!
Isn't it easier to just use crumbs?
@@shizotypical I suppose if you want a graham cracker crust, don't have a food processor, and can't get to the store for the pre-made crumbs, using a fine grater might work in a pinch. For cookies, though, they can be broken up by hand.
I would take my fingertips off trying to use a grater. If a food processor isn't available, put the cookies in a bag and go at it with a mallet, or rolling pin, or anything you can whack without damaging your counter. Efficient AND therapeutic!
That “marbled frosting” looks like mucus 😆 🤢
ew yes
Yes it really does!
Oh gosh now I can't get it out of my head
It looks like liquid cinnamon roll imo
The sound of burnt cookie on cheese grater will haunt my nightmares lmao thank you
My face will haunt my dreams
It’s like nails on a chalk board

@@jaxolotl2707 LOL
Never worry about gay candy again. Thank you Jesus! LOL
coffee and chocolate both bring our the flavor of each other, they are perfect compliments. My mom actually started making the chocolate frosting for our birthday cakes with strong coffee in place of milk do thinning, and it makes it so smooth and chocolatey, I never make chocolate icing with milk anymore, I always use the strong coffee.
STRONG coffee is the key.
No on the cake thing...the frosting looks gross.
I think it sorta has potential but the yellowish color of the frosting is really gross
@Antics Ye I think it's quite cool!
the frosting does look gross
It looks like a block of cheese being fermented with fungus all over it 😂
YES MAM
When you rolled the lemon, did you squish it down? Seems like I’ve tried something similar before and it worked. At least worked better than what you showed. Hmmm
Yea, you’re supposed to squish it but it just looked like she was rolling it.
I’m living for the fact that you have the same personality as my English teacher, she’s energetic and sweet and she even has the same accent
I love how most of 5 minute crafts is fake but everyone keeps watching it 😂
I am one of the people watching FAKE things of 5.min.craft. I watch it on Instagram lol
I hate that, and I am one of those people, lol
Me too
Ditto! 🙃
Lol
How to cook that makes alot of content like this, you should check her out if you like this video😍
Ya she probably got this idea from Ms. Reardon over at how to cook that, but hey the more debunkers the merrier. Maybe the content farms will get shut down if people STOP CLICKING ON THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE. that really is thebsimple solution.
A small issue I have with this ladies, is that she is basically proving their hacks correct... I do not know, she is acting impressed from all these hacks. Not much of a debunk. And really not showing how dangerous content farms really are.
stop advertising other channels
• Shay Lay • It’s just a suggestion since they have similar content. Calm down. I actually came from her channel when someone commented about the icing artist! It’s not like they’re forcing you to watch...
That's why I'm here XD
I came across one of your videos 2 days ago in my recommendations & I have been binge watching you since!! I absolutely love your Energy & your cake skills are incredible 😍😍😍🙌🏻
I just realized I have been “SMILING” the whole time I’ve watched you. Lmbo
Candied peel is pretty common! It's usually NOT made like that XD and is usually cut a lot thinner. You might like the propper stuff.
Haha this is so true!!
Also I think the slices are boiled first before candied!
@@thairinkhudr4259 yes they are!! Actually blanched, which is usually boiled through at least 4 times (or more) lol
@@GinaFP That's amazing I never knew that. Maybe I will give that a go next time. Thanks :)
@@thairinkhudr4259 do it!!!😃
The “marble chocolate” cake was kind of chunky and it can be finicky to make it right. Just stick to the og marbling.
I TOTALLY see the difference in using coffee in my chocolate cakes. I also am in love with Ghiardelli cocoa powder. It's expensive, but OH the difference!
I actually use the burnt cookie thing. I've used it for cookies, biscuits and crescent rolls. it doesn't always make it perfect, but it definitely does help! 😃👍
For candied lemon I recommend boiling thinly sliced lemone in simple syrup to get rid of bitterness, drain the and arrange on baking sheet with parchment paper, bake on 400 F for about 8 minutes until dried out.. let it cool in a dry place then use them for decorations 😋
Somebody introduce her to Ann Reardon, the one who founded How To Cook That!
she’s most definitely already seen ann do this stuff. ann pretty much started this trend of doing stuff like this. (the food version, at least)
@@Sam-kk7if Oh. I see.
goldendiamond24 i didn’t mean for that to come across as rude, sorry
@@Sam-kk7if Well, I don't think you are being rude, so it's OK. There's no need to apologise.
Yeah I agree, I enjoy Ann Reardons videos
Okay so I’m sure someone already stated this in comments, but
-the second one (warm frosting with the chocolate melted) is very similar to an acrylic pour. 😉 Best results if you pour in exact same spot, and allow to naturally pour over. -I’m so glad you found this, cannot wait to try some of these. Thank you 🙏
I love the way she reacted even when some of the hacks didn't work.
She is so cheerful!!
No, didn't like how the cake frosting came out.
Ya that hack was ridiculously unrealistic. It could be done as others said by melting both seperate and then swirling together. The point with the content farms is some of things might work, but generally not how they show it on their videos. They often skip or omit steps needed. However the majority of the content farm hacks relaly do not work and they know it. They will throw in a thing or two that does work as described, or might work with modifactions to how they showed.
the amount of sarcasm in this vid is amazing. Thx Laurie!
Her facial expressions kill me lmao. Keep making videos, love them!
My favorite part of this entire video is your laugh. It's just so fun, and happy
I really like how she laughs, makes me laugh as well🤣🤣
Her incessant giggling makes her almost unwatchable for me
@@ticketyboo2456 why
@@bushrarehman8097 people who laugh hysterically when something is only mildly amusing have always made me very uncomfortable. Her content, however, is extremely good.
@@ticketyboo2456 oh ok
@@ticketyboo2456 it just mean those people have a very low laughing point. Even lame jokes would sound funny.
Ngl, I have burnt cookies when I was younger and then took a butter knife and scraped off the burnt part 😂 I was young and just sprayed a cookie sheet with Pam, placed some store bought dough in the pan, and burnt the bottoms.
Yesssss same
the cake iced with the microwaved icing - yuk! It looked like the icing was off.
Hershey has a chocolate cake recipe on the back of the cocoa can that uses boiling water. Substitute that with boiling coffee 👌
I add coffee to my chocolate recipes and also in some of my steak marinades it really enhances the flavors (at least I feel like it does lol) but I also love my coffee and will find any reason to use it in everything I can 😉💖
Im coffee obsessed as well, you've opened some new windows for me, thank u!
TIA is such a doll! She is like the love child of Emma Stone, Melissa McCarthy and Martha Stewart 🤯
Love your channel and I love Ann Reardon’s channel too it’s good to see channels debunking these food hacks ♥️♥️
Dang! I gave away my hair straightener. Had I know I could have made cool Jolly Rancher food decorations, I would have kept it! 🤦🏻♀️ lol. The cake pour was a fail. 🤷🏻♀️
Use your iron, same difference. No steam!
You can get cheap straighteners
Heat chocolate separately from frosting. Stir two together so it just barely starts to swirl! Then pour! Works great and is beautiful!
The wedding cake video was in my recommended and now I can’t believe I never knew about your channel you are amazing!
I like how the debunking videos get more views then most 5 minute crafts videos.
Seeing you say “it tastes like a burnt cookie” so cute
That cake frosting and chocolate melt pour looks like it came straight out of a "bukkake" shoot. No pun intended. DISCOSTANG!
The sound of grating away at cookies shouldn't be as funny and somehow satisfying as it is... Thanks for the laugh 😂🖤
Hi, I loved this video, thanks! 6:05, when I was younger and I burnt a batch of cookies I had made my mom taught me that trick, and it worked! I always use it now when I burn cookies (sadly, more often than I'd like). Thanks again!
In my experience, cookies burn like that either when you cook them on the bottom rack of the oven or if you don't use parchment paper.
Exactly
Idk why the halt of the happy music during her lemon candy reaction is so funny to me lmao
You should do multiple five mins baking hacks and make one cake with all of them
The lemon is supposed to be rolled with a firmer hand. Then it sort of almost works
That's what I thought, she rolled it like, twice.
Yeah, you are supposed to kinda "mash" the lemon a bit. What she did wasn't much different than just letting it gently roll across the countertop after buying lol
And in the microwave for like 10 seconds as well!
i had that exact thought
I tried the Jolly Rancher trick. It does work, my husband loved it; however, if not kept cool once put on a cake or cupcake, they will melt. Ooops
Wait... why?
@@Junitunes General heat
I mean that's literally how science work lol
That face when you eat the lemon was epic! Thanks for the laughs!
Love watching these hack videos!!! Thanks for saving me the time! Yes I want to see more!!!
When she clicks the hairstraitener I don’t know why but I laughed so hard.
You have exactly my energies. The cookie makes the loud scraping sound and you just start laughing.
That lemon reaction was gold!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO - make more!! Literally LOLed several times.
Your smile and laughter is infectious.
It's so innocent and sweet
I always put a shot of espresso in my chocolate cake and in the chocolate icing. And I have grated a lot of burnt cookies and with royal icing you can't taste the difference. That lemon wasn't squeezed soft enough. I used the same tecnique as a child for instant orange juice.
im just laughing along whenever she does at 3 am now
help i found one of her videos on my recommended and im addicted now
I love how Happy you are.
They sell these dehydrated lemon & lime slices, & those come with the peel on them that you eat & they're pretty bomb tbh.
Candied lemon slices are a thing actually. I dont like them either
Insomnia. 5AM.
YT: Watch this, dude.
Me: [cracks]
Do NOT believe in no-brainer hacks!
If nothing more, it's entertaining especially scraping the burnt cookie. 🤣
Hi Laurie u really inspire me to try baking keep being amazing and creating new things! ❤️🧁
Lmao I love how nervous you look while trying out these crazy hacks 😂
Yessss!! You should totally do more of these! Id love to see them!!!
I love her. She always makes me laugh and brings my spirits up. 🥰❤️
pretty sure the chocolate icing one was ACTUAL chocolate and vanilla icing mixed together, a much smarter way to do it if you're going the marbled pour store bought icing route
Pretty much 99% of 5 minute crafts is garbage.
Or any content farm, really.
@@dorinahasimja5408 the fact that content farming is illegal and youtube just promotes it is gross. When is someone going to tell susan how fucked up her stupid site is
Themooncircles - she knows the site is fucked up. She just doesn’t care. It’s sad.
Agreed
Celticlibra don't forget about the 1% it's important 😂😂
I'm french and I love how you say '' Et voilà ''
6:04 yay i wanted someone to try this hack since forever thank you!!!
I love coffee in all my chocolate cakes! Also, the dried lemon slices would be pretty for decorating a cake!! More oven time to fully dry juices, maybe?
I have always believed that 5 minute crafts never show any genuine thing and they always do nothing except than WASTAGE. Even if you look at any of their videos, literally any video you will see that there is nothing except wastage and other art youtubers and lifestyle youtubers also while doing a review videos say that it's total wastage
I think 65% of the wastage on planet is done by 5 minute crafts
Also, all their crafts that work are stolen from other youtubers!
Love the look on your face when trying the lemon 🤣 I make homemade candy out of lemon peel and knew that one wasn't going to work lol
I’m really sick right now and watching your videos had helped me feel better
Do a st Patrick's day cake it would be so cool do like pot of gold or a hat something like that maybe catching a leprechaun
th-cam.com/video/52ly0vCDGCo/w-d-xo.html
Really cute idea
U Irish?
Maybe my family is weird but I eat a thin slice of lemon (like for that candied lemon hack you did) for fish fingers. Definitely delicious. Sweet/savoury from the fish finger, sour and a hint of bitterness from the lemon skin. Try it, tastes good.
I don't think it's weird, considering that the 11th doctor's favorite food is fish fingers and custard
5.49 It was so hilarious looking at a cake that HAD so much potential which got covered with something which looks like booger revolving on a fancy cake plate with fancy music in the background 😂😂😂
😂😂 cheese grating cookies. Thanks for the laughs! So great
You’re so fun!!!! This was in my recommended and I gave it a shot and you’re so adorable and funny and enjoyable to watch. Subscribing :)
