Well, it’s official! I knew you had big time patience but now I know you are a saint. I would be over it just cutting out the squares. 😂 Beautiful work!
I just made a Minecraft square cake (1 tier) for my grandson last month for his 9th Birthday. I lovingly told him that he would have to pick a new theme next year. 😂😂😂 It was a challenge. You are AMAZING!
This is exactly why these full length video tutorials are needed. I always grasp something that I've missed in other videos or you say something differently that will help me understand......example being how you use your leveler 🤦🏽♀️ lol seriously! I thought you use it on the cake itself and not on top of the straws. Makes so much sense to place them on TOP on the STRAWS like that ....lol this explains what ive been doing wrong this whole time smh 😂 Thank you!!!!! ❤❤❤
I was surprised to see this!! Especially after that one video where you mentioned how much you hated doing that other Minecraft one 😂 it looks so good!! I’m so thankful for your videos I just started selling my cakes and I literally refer to your channel for SOMETHING for every cake I do 😂 love youuuuuu you’re so talented !!!!!!
Yayyy you found it!! I'm glad it's still out there somewhere. It's one of my favorite tools and I always feel so bad using it! I've called Wilton and asked them to bring it back, but they never listen to me LOL
In your video you made it apparent that square cakes with square decorations require much more technical ability. Reminds me of tiling a wall - the dimensions of the room are never perfect, so you make adjustments. Your talents transcend cake decorating!
Thank you SO much, that's so sweet of you! And you're right. I tried to ice that square cake as square as possible, and it still wasn't straight. And the measurements rarely all match up. So you gotta figure out the best way to work around it!
That’s amazing kake! I have a Minecraft design that I’ll do. It doesn’t require squares lol. It’s the only design I’ll do. So I don’t get asked to make a lot of them.
wow! You have so much patience and skill!! That is a truly amazing cake! As I am watching, I think I would use icing sheet with the pattern printed on it rather than spending all that time and fiddling. Or, let someone with far more talent than I have to make this kind of cake.
This cake and all your others is a testament to your amazing talent. Truly remarkable what you’re able to do with food. I also enjoy the longer videos!
I just yelled at my husband in shock that you did a Minecraft cake he was like okayyy, he was so confused 😂 Love these long videos! You did a great job!
I would love to see how you come up with your cake designs . Do you work with the client or do they just tell you details of what they want and you create whatever ?
They usually tell me what they want included in the design and I come up with something. I'm trying to get a design course together so hopefully that will be out soon!
Love it.. love how you are detailed in everthing when you are explaining and teaching.... is there a reason why you don't use edible marker on your straws
You have an amazing amount of patience to do those individual squares. Sitting cold cakes atop one another doesn’t make the colors bleed as the cakes thaw?
Thank you! And, no, I don't have issues with the colors bleeding. You want to make sure you never put a cold cake in a warm room or you'll have condensation issues!
You never disappoint! Love it!! I honestly love when things don't go according to plan, and you explain how to remedy it. What was your total time for this cake? Thank you for sharing❤
You absolutely amaze me. You must have the patience of a Saint to do all of those blocks. With the red teir where you mixed red and black for airbrushing how much did you use of each color? I hope you charged $1000 for the cake you deserve it. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜
You are so amazing. Not just with the cakes but also by your responses to your viewers. I've learned so much from you and cant wait to put it into practice as soon as God helps me and my kids get into a place . Thank you for always listening
Cut a dish towel into 6" wide strips. Soak them and squeeze out the excess. Wrap the wet strips around the outside of the pan and secure them with binder clips. Also use a heating core nail in the middle! I explain in this video: th-cam.com/video/MaQ-qrlPJxI/w-d-xo.html
OMG...Absolutely amazing! Love it! Love your NJ girl. 💜 [BTW, I've been having a hard time trying to find Wilton Clear Vanilla. I used to purchase it from Walmart, but lately it hasn't been there. Lol, I've gone to 8 Walmart's. I hope Wilton hasn't discontinued it..Ugh! 🥰]
@KarolynsKakes I just purchased from Amazon, there brand. I haven't tried it yet. Idk what happened with Wilton, I'm DEVASTATED 🤣🤦🏽♀️. I just made a cake with Watkins clear,but you're definitely correct,it's something about the taste of Wilton. I'll try McCormick as well, UGH!
Oh I hate when the customer says I need to pick up early Saturday. So I get up early and the customer is late . 10 min ok but I had one last week that was 1 1/2 hours late. I ended up having to leave it on the porch and made sure the customer knows I’m not responsible for what happens . I tried texting and calling . By the time she called I had 5 min to try to get to my manicure appt.
It's happened to me before as well. Now, because of that, I give strict pickup times when they order the cake. I say that I have to leave the house at 1pm, so if you're not there before then, they can pick it up at 6pm when I get back. That usually lights a fire under their butt!
This cake is AMAZING!!! But all of the squares would have driven me to the looney bin🤣. I love these full-length videos!!
They did drive me a little crazy! But it was my only cake last week so I was able to work on it a little bit at a time.😊
Well, it’s official! I knew you had big time patience but now I know you are a saint. I would be over it just cutting out the squares. 😂 Beautiful work!
It was my only cake last week, so I was able to walk away and take breaks!
I have no words but WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!! ❤❤❤

See?! Some times the little things stand out, I'm glad it helped! 🙏🎉
I was surprised to see this!! Especially after that one video where you mentioned how much you hated doing that other Minecraft one 😂 it looks so good!! I’m so thankful for your videos I just started selling my cakes and I literally refer to your channel for SOMETHING for every cake I do 😂 love youuuuuu you’re so talented !!!!!!
I was more shocked that I attempted this! 😂
Love you back!! 💜🙏
Amazing as always! I bet this was an expensive cake with all the small squares! Would love to know how much you charged for this one!
Many many props to you! All the squares….. I could neverrr 😂
It was my only cake last week, so I had the time and patience for this! 😂
Beautiful, thank you Sweetie!! ❤❤❤❤
I so love your long form videos. I am also extra happy that after googling, I just ordered my very own wilton cake dividing wheel.
Yayyy you found it!! I'm glad it's still out there somewhere. It's one of my favorite tools and I always feel so bad using it! I've called Wilton and asked them to bring it back, but they never listen to me LOL
As soon as a saw the thumbnail ... OH MY GOD 😍 you are amazing ❤
Peep house of the dragon in the background CAN NOT WAIT FOR SEASON 2 MYSELF !

Thank you so much!!
Woah... Awesome cake ❤
wow! You have so much patience and skill!!

Or, let someone with far more talent than I have to make this kind of cake.
I've seen Minecraft cakes with edible images, that also works!
This cake and all your others is a testament to your amazing talent. Truly remarkable what you’re able to do with food. I also enjoy the longer videos!
Thank you so much 😊
Thanks!
Awwww thank you so much! I appreciate you!
Love this! Thank you!
Very impressive work 💯👏
Thank you so much 😀
I just yelled at my husband in shock that you did a Minecraft cake he was like okayyy, he was so confused 😂 Love these long videos! You did a great job!
😂😂😂 I totally lied when I said I'd never do it again! I think absolutes are a little harsh. I'm glad I tried again though!🙏
I’m glad too! Love it!
I really enjoy your work absolutely beautiful … ❤
Beautiful 💯💯♥️🔥🔥🔥🔥

th-cam.com/video/Qd6XyEhMgPA/w-d-xo.html
Love it.. love how you are detailed in everthing when you are explaining and teaching.... is there a reason why you don't use edible marker on your straws
The sharpie shows up better and I cut it off completely so it never touches the cake!
You have an amazing amount of patience to do those individual squares. Sitting cold cakes atop one another doesn’t make the colors bleed as the cakes thaw?
Thank you! And, no, I don't have issues with the colors bleeding. You want to make sure you never put a cold cake in a warm room or you'll have condensation issues!
You never disappoint! Love it!! I honestly love when things don't go according to plan, and you explain how to remedy it. What was your total time for this cake? Thank you for sharing❤
Thanks girl! Total decorating time was 9-10 hours. Plus baking / filling / icing. Total time about 13-14 hours!
Wowww !! You did an awesome job👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!! How much did you charge for the cake?
How much did you charge for this cake? It appears to be labor intense...awesome job!
So nice! Great video!
Thanks Trac!! 😊
Thank you so much for such an informative video. How come your fondant does npt sweat in the fridge please make a video about this ❤
Here ya go! th-cam.com/video/vBKi-O7v98w/w-d-xo.html
Totally amazing as always 👍🏻 i need your patience so i can work with all those squares 😰😱
It was my only cake last week so I was able to walk away and gather myself 😂
HI Karolyn.. I would love to know what you charged for this cake because it must have taken you soooo much longer than your normal cakes?
Excelent job, love it 😊 how much can a cake like that cost? Thank you 🙏
Atleast 1k I'm thinking
You absolutely amaze me. You must have the patience of a Saint to do all of those blocks. With the red teir where you mixed red and black for airbrushing how much did you use of each color? I hope you charged $1000 for the cake you deserve it. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜
The red was only a few drops and a light spray. The black, I filled the cup half full and used almost all of it!
You are so amazing. Not just with the cakes but also by your responses to your viewers. I've learned so much from you and cant wait to put it into practice as soon as God helps me and my kids get into a place . Thank you for always listening
Please what Kind of tape do you use under your boards?
Just regular duct tape! The tape never touches the cake, only the boards.
Amazing cake!!!! How many people is the cake?
Feeds approx. 50-55.
Thank so much and happy new year 🥂🥂🥂
How do you bake a square cake? Mine have crispy edges and it’s driving me nuts. Tips please!!! 💕
Cut a dish towel into 6" wide strips. Soak them and squeeze out the excess. Wrap the wet strips around the outside of the pan and secure them with binder clips. Also use a heating core nail in the middle! I explain in this video:

I bought mine from Amazon
It's so annoying I don't know what's going on! Try McCormick Clear Vanilla, it's a close 2nd!

@KarolynsKakes Thanks love. Lmk if you find Wilton again lol.😘
❤❤❤

Wow. Very tedious, but that’s your gift. 👏👏
Minecraft is tedious!!
How do you charge for a cake like this
Hi Carolyn! I would like to ask you if you could make a Mario Bros Cake??? If you have any video, please let me know!! Thanks
Hey! I've made a few, but I never filmed it. I will film the next one I make!
Looks so great, I’m guessing at least $600
🙏👏👏👏
I made a Minecraft cake and sculpted a Steve as well. Tedious? You bet!
I admire those who can sculpt the decorations. It's really challenging!
