I still remember your first sugar paste masterclass! I'm so happy to see how you've evolved in front of the camera over the years

Sooooooooo super cute! Sally you are so lovely and sunny and truly a great teacher xx
Thank you ❤
Would you consider making an old-fashioned fruitcake with the marzipan, fondant, multiple coats of royal icing and Lambeth-style piping?
Super cute Sally!
Very well explained. The cake looks so pretty, love it!🎀🩷
Lovely to see your face again Sally 😊 you’re a ray of sunshine ❤xx
Super cute decorations, Sally! I’ve become a covert since I learned you can make your own fondant out of marshmallows and it tastes loads better than the store-bought stuff.
Sally for me this was one of your beat videos I learned alot of tricks and tips great demo.....
Thank you ❤
The bows on the cake looks so adorable 🥰🥰🥰
Great job Sally! I’m so jealous of your talent! It just looks soooo fun!
How sweet is that!❤ thanks Sally😊
Absolutely adore Sally and her adorable cake!!
Hi Ms. Sally, big fan of your work you always explain everything so well, your coworkers are great too, but sometimes they do everything so fast. Anyways, I like your work because I love pastel colors and it seems to me you also love them. I don’t mind the regular bright colors, but my preference is always pastels. Thank you for the yummy cake, even if it’s chocolate, not a fan of chocolate cakes, sorry!!🫤🫣🤭 I have not yet, try working with sugar paste, but I will definitely have to try it very soon!!
Thanks Sally your such a good teacher.❤ cake looks beautiful.
Thanks so much ❤
It looks so pretty.
Great tutorial. Thank you Sally.
Very cute! Don't think I've ever eaten sugar paste. Will have to try this. Thanks Sally!
Most birthday cakes are covered in fondant, it’s quite likely you’ve eaten it before.
@@dudessjoddie Nope. Every cake I’ve ordered for work and home parties have been buttercream frosting. Even fancy weddings: buttercream.
Perfect indeed Sally many thanks bless to your family always
My favourite medium to work with
Lovely tutorial . Thank you Sally x
Awesome tips guys! Love all your videos!!
Hermoso el pastel felicidades ❤🥰
I'm making my girls are heart shape sponge cake in a few weeks....any tips on fiddly sugar paste cakes?
amazing, so pretty. when I look at you doing this. it looks so easy but when i do this myself it's a mess
More sugarpaste/fondant class please.... 💗
Loved watching this can I ask how long it lasts if you use the chocolate and cream under the fondant. Now to practice.
Beautiful!!!
Beautiful cake! Is the sugar coating eaten with the cake, or should it not be eaten?
Thank yiu❤
Funnily enough, I'm watching this whilst making your sticky toffee cupcakes for the second time in 2024. My boss's going away party is Friday, and she requested them.
Actually, I had to stop watching for a bit because I was in the middle of cooking the custard and almost let the eggs scramble! Fortunately, I saved it just in time.
Now it's in the fridge cooling, and I've resumed the video.
Perfect 👌 superb 👌 love it 😊. Watched n subscribed your channel friend. Stay connected new friend. Good wishes from Zoeya Kitchen
How do we store the cake afterwards until the party?
I always freeze my cake to prevent crumbs of cake when I ice it
I agree, sugar paste lost popularity. I remember we used to use apricot jam to stick the paste to the cake before butter cream and crumb coats became a thing.
Can I use water instead of edible glue?
Yes, you made need to hold the parts in place for a few seconds whilst the sugarpaste gets gummy from the water. X

What ideas do you have for your leftover cake you cut off?
cake pops!
