- Lots of people ask me what that liquid is that I put on my sponge cakes. Answer: Sugar syrup! This is an equal measurement of water and sugar with a little touch of flavour.
This trick is an absolute life saver in cake decorating. Not only does this simple syrup add moisture to the cake itself, but it also enhances the flavour too.
I also have a great way how to apply the syrup without leaving brush bristles on the cake.
You must give this one a go, I promise you'll never look back..!
Enjoy! x

Equal parts, an easy homemade sprayer. Great DIY video, can't get any better than that! I think I have 2 matching empty bottles, so I'll keep one cap holeless for safe fridge storage.
Thank you so much for this recipe and tutorial! Your efforts helped make our dear mother’s birthday cake an absolute delight today!!! Every success to you! 🥳
My pleasure 😊
What a simple, fantastic idea! Thank you Georgia!
300 grams = roughly 1 cup in case some are wondering
😊😊
Thanks bud
No, 1 cup is 100g
@@shafiqamin2357 100 grams is 1/2 cup...
300g is 1.26803 cups.
A kitchen scale is $10.
she was definetly good at school😩❤
so adorable and fun to watch.... Now I know where the cake flavors really come from
Thank you for this video. I've been worried to do this but will be testing it at the weekend as I want to improve my cakes as a baker my self.
I use a silicone brush to spread my syrup😁
Good idea
Thanks for the recipe....I was searching for best recipe....and here I found it :)
How much simple syrup should we add to each cake layer? I mean I fear to add too much of syrup only to realise that cake has become soggy....
Nice ! Ingenious! I will definitely do this technique. I’m about to make my daughters wedding cake! Been binge watching videos! Thanks!
I am commenting 2 years later...how did it go? Have you made other wedding cakes or was this your first?
@@debjudisch5548 😂 The turned out great. The marriage it so good…
@@MamaMia-xn1op that's wonderful :)
Thank you for sharing this recipe. Very simple. God bless you always. 🙏🏽
Very nice and simple. Keep it up. From Zimbabwe
Simple yet amazing to keep our cakes moist! Thanks for every video you upload!
How long does this syrup last? Few days/weeks? Also how should it be stored ex fridge? Thanks for the great and easy video!
Amazing! Thanks for the recipe!☺️
👍Thanks. I used a spray bottle. 💞
OMG why didnt i think of that!! Thats genius!! Thank u
@@jenzarli2899 - 👍🤩💝
Can you please tell us what kind of vanilla bean paste your using? Thanks! I’m using your exact same sponge cake recipe! Love it!
LOVE LOVE LOVE This bottle trick!!
She got it from howtocake it, you should watch her. She makes cool cakes btw.
Thank you so much I recently saw your video and like the way you have taught .
Thank you so much i like ur explanation ❤❤❤
I’ll be doing it right now 😊
I’m making a Black Forest cake this week with cherry syrup and I plan on baking the cake a few days in advance. Should I put the syrup on when the cake is fresh out of the oven or when I’m assembling it?
this video is awesome. Thanks Georgia
Great tips Georgia! Love the bottle idea 😄
I have been suffering with brush bristles . Thanks for the tip
lol this is different lol most videos ive seen say to boil on stove then add sugar lol this one you pour the hot water on the sugar lol feels safer and quicker this way lol thnx for sharing this
Lol
Thank you for this video, now i dont have to spend $20 on one!
You'll spend more.
@@TradBarbie I don’t think the sugar and water is $20
Hi Georgia, how long does the sugar pasta last and how do you keep it fresh.
Many Thanks
Emma

I love sugar pasta😋 sugar pasta is my favourite
Omg wow I haven't seen one of them wall cord phones in so long. At least since 2008.
My grandma keeps a non-working rotary phone for the kids to play with. They love seeing old tech, especially analog tech (non-digital).
I have one plugged in directly to the phone outlet. When the power goes out in a storm, all the electronic handset phones stop working! The only one still with a dial tone is the one directly plugged in!
Wow so simple never would of guess it thank you so much … and yes I subscribed.
Wow! I just found your TH-cam channel, I love love love your videos! Kisses from Holland😘
Hello there, thank you for the videos you put up, they've been really helpful.
I need to ask please, how long will a cake with sugar syrup last? I hope the syrup doesn't shorten the life span of such cake?
Good job. I love Georgia's cake.
Thank you! No it shouldn't - it's only sugar and water. The cake is good for 4-5 days, so is the sugar syrup. In the fridge it lasts longer!
Very clever idea.thank u.
Hey Georgia! I want to make a cake for Friday and would like to start baking the cake layers on Thursday. Would you already layer them or at least 'moisturise' each cake before storing it overnight? Thanks!
I would keep the cakes as whole, then only soak then when I'm building it up - see my decorating a cake vid for how I decorate!
@@GeorgiasCakesthat doesnt make sense
love the idea but I'm curious...will it not make to cake super sweet?
It does make it a little bit sweeter but I'd rather a moist sweet cake than a dry one..!
True...Thank you for your reply x
Can we reduce the amount of sugar when baking the cake?
Thank you so much for your tips ❤
Thank You Georgia
I swear, i love you.
Incase Noone has mentioned lately, "what a beautiful host"
Definitely don't want hair on my pie/cake looks so good 😍
Mmuuuaahhh loved it❤
I've seen lots of people freeze their layers before decorating as it helps when smoothing the buttercream.. could I still add the sugar syrup to the cold cakes or would it not soak in properly? Thanks :) xx
Did it work????
It wouldn't affect it at all.
Thank you so much for sharing this simple amazing video Georgia!
I have a question: given this is sugar syrup, must we then reduce the sugar measurements for our cake from the recipe we have please?
That’s a good question I was wondering the same thing. ????
i don’t think so. the sugar syrup just helps to add moisture to the cake
If you used a wet paper towel wrapped in aluminum foil and wrap that around your cake pan you wouldn't need that. No hard edges, no domed cakes. Without the added sugar either.
It's just for added flavor and moisture.
Yes!! I saw that on My Preppy Kitchen with John. I ended up buying the belts he uses. The cakes don’t rise or get those hard dark edges
Thank you
So interesting Georgia, please can you tell me if you've got any ideas for decorating a naked layer top for my a Diamond wedding anniversary thanks so much
Hi 👋 im just wondering maybe you can give me a tips how to make a butter cream how to make sure is thicker to apply and make a better cake. Thanks
Very helpful!!
If you want to use those various coffee syrups, vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, they work just as well.
Normally you can get a 12 oz btl at your local Dollar Tree store.
I find the 20-24 oz bottles for under 5 bucks at Sams Club.
Wow..great tip :)
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
Thanks for sharing Georgia. Just wondering, won't the sugar add more sugar to the cake taste?
Thank you very much..super helpful.
One qstn:can one refridgerate them after putting the syrup
Can we frost the cake right after putting sugar syrup on the cake?
She’s precious 🥰
thank you for this simple trick of yours,.may I ask if i can use this for chiffon cake?thank you
If you're freezing a cake do you do this before you freeze it? Or after? Also how long will this keep for?
I googled it and says to freeze then when you decorate cakes that's when to use the syrup😊
@@lauraparker1981 thank you!
I’m in love with that scale!!! Where can I get one like that?
Can I use half the sugar or any less sugar. When i tasted the sugar syrup it tasted really sweet so it will change the cake flavor to extra sweet.
i got a question. can you add a flavored syrup ? i thought since im making a strawberry cake, maybe i could use strawberry flavoring syrup in my simple sugar syrup .
Sister you did awesome
Beautiful❤️
Thanks so much
Hi new to this idea of using simple syrup. Also about to bake my son a triple layer caramel flavour cake with chocolate ganache covering. I just wanted to know if I'm using the syrup on top of the cake once the layers are assembled before coating? And is it just on one side of each sponge layer? Thank you!
LOVE THE EXPENSIVE BOTTLE!😂😁
It’s so useful
Yolanda Gampp sells Sir squeeze bottles but this is clever idea.
Lol, they arent called "Sir squeeze bottles" they are called graduated soaker bottles and you can get them on Amazon for way less.
Actually, Yolanda DOES call her bottle "Sir Squeeze", or "Sir Squeeze A Lot". And why would you even pay for the Amazon bottles when you can make one like this for free? I did, and it works just great.
How much syrup is required to moist the cake??
Nice hair and you are beautiful 😍😍 I forgot why I came here
can we use vanilla extract instead of vanilla paste?
Thank you for this great tip, happy baking
Can the vanilla paste be replace with vanilla extract in the syrup??
Thank you very much! Is there a way to make it chocolate flavours?!!
I was wondering is this cake suitable for fondant? Or do you have a recipe for Madeira cake for fondant
Doesn't sugar syrup make the very sweet? Wanted to know alternatives to sugar syrup for moistening the cake..... Can I use milk? Or anything that makes it less sweet
You can use milk however the milk will make the cake go bad sooner
I love sugar syrup for my cakes
Superb
Hi, thanks for the great, easy, ideas. This should make my cakes so much better, I'm going to test it today. Especially on the chocolate cake, mine always seem to get a little dry after the first two days. Do you have any tips for the chocolate cake?
On chocolate cakes u can puta hot coffee instead, and thank me later
@@mercykitomari7844 does it matter what type of coffee?
Nah it doesn't matter
Hi how much to add on 2 pound layer? Ia there a fixed quantity?
Ty
I just followed your recipe from your book but it didn’t say when to brush the syrup on the cake. Do I brush it then wrap the cake and freeze, or do I brush it after the cake has been defrosted and ready to be assembled? 😊
Nice idea.👍☺️
Hello might be a weird question but do you use sugar syrup for every cake or just certain cakes ?.
Thanks very much God bless you
Hiya, is this Caster or granulated sugar please? Thanks x
Thanks Georgia I just subscribed 👍
Do I add the syrup before or after freezing?
Wow Super I'm very love it
Can you start decorating straight away? Like adding a marzipan layer?
Nice video
Thank you
Fantastic greattttt
I have done the same for my dad's birthday with bread
Hi how long does it last n can you keep it fridge.
i love love love your kettle!!! what make is it?
thanks! It's Morphy Richards!
thank you for the video. that was helpful cuz i was looking for that
Glad I could help
Thank you 😊
Can I just ask, why do we need to put the sugar syrup in between layers? Is it not ok to just put the frosting in between? Thanks 🙂
It just keeps all the layers moist I think 👍🏼
Hi Georgia. Can I use this soaking method for cupcakes as well?
Yes I do that too!
What ratio do we use when adding alcohol
