The tip of chilling the buttercream "glue" is great. The lightweight nature of the dummy cake has been very frustrating to me.
2:30 I suggest disposing of as much buttercream as possible in the garbage can before washing all that greasy frosting down the sink. Plumbers are expensive.
Thanks for sharing. ❤
Thanks, Emily! I've seen other decorators use these for display, but I'd agree it's perfect for beginners, like myself, to get the practice in for those designs, and how to get sharp edges. I'll also locate squares/rectangles to work with as well!!
Yes! It’s a great way to practice without having to throw away lots of cake!
Thank you for the video❤
You're welcome 😊
This came right on time... I'm new to cake decorating
So glad it’s helpful!
Hello I am beginner... great technique for practice
Great video! I’m wondering if used for display, how long will buttercream iced cakes last?
I worked in a bakery where they would display them for a month but by the end the bright colours would always start to run. I think it depends on temperature and humidity
We saved money on our wedding cake using a cake dummy layer and pre-cut sheet cake pieces!
Thanks for your video. Are you using American buttercream or Swiss Meringue buttercream to cover?
Hi! American!
Are there other options out there for cake dummies made out of other materials? I mean other than styrofoam?
Great idea for beginners learning how to pipe🙃
1st🥰❤
Great way to practice different techniques, however I was horrified to see the icing washed down the sink, should be scraped into the bin.
There’s an insinkerator in that sink but without one, yes that would be better!
