My aunt passed away a few months ago and she was always a great cake decorator. I thought I might take it up so that I can make cakes for events in the family now that she’s gone. Thanks for these tips!
As a 11 year older I really enjoyed making this cake with my mom . I really thank baker bettie for uploading a video like this .This cake even looks nice . I made it now watching this video and it was a success and it sure was delicious. I hope I can make more tasty cakes. Again I thank Baker bettie.
This is what I'm doing today as well! Also don't interact with the comment above mine, people have been making fake telegram accounts to try and scam people by pretending to be youtubers
@@lapelusa9929 there was another comment that must have been removed lol. It said that they won something and they had to message a telegram account to receive it
Now that I'm retired, I tried my hand at a few cakes which turned out ok but its the decorating that stumps me and your instructions are easy to follow- thanks!
I'm trying to learn how to make cakes because I wanna make one for Mother's day lmao, wish me luck! Edit: thank you all for wishing me luck! It went surprisingly well, because I've never actually made a layered cake before! She loved it!
I’ve always wanted to learn how to decorate cakes. We had culinary arts when I was in high school but never covered decorating. I always get super discouraged bc I hate how my cakes come out. Definitely going to attempt again after watching this video.
Give it a shot! If you like it, I have two other cake decorating courses that go a bit more in depth and show a different style of decorating. betterbakingschool.com/
It is perfect for my littlest sister I am going to make a home made cake 🍰 I usually do store-bought but I want to but my ❤️ in it It is my first time so I am going to cross my fingers🤞
I don't want to be a baker, but I bake quite often. I love cake decorating it looks so fun. I've made so many different types of cake, but I have trouble with decorating.
I love baking and i m making my 4 years old daughters birthday cake at home this time so needed some tips on how to do it.. I think baking cakes and decorating them is an art in it self
Glad you found the tutorial helpful. I do all of my own video editing and I don’t claim to be good at it. It is honestly incredibly difficult for me. Someday I will be able to hire someone that is better at picking out music and editing, but for now, it is what it is.
This is awesome! I’m making my nieces birthday cake and she wants Minnie Mouse and Frozen theme. I rather bake the cake and decorate it myself. Thank you for this tutorial this is really helpful
I will be making a cake for my sister for her birthday, I got all the tools I need to make the cake professionally. I've also been watching tutorials for cake decorating, the do's & don't's. Just hoping it turns out 😊
I found that warming the scraper in hot water and dry it off then smooth the cake for a perfectly iced cake and smoothing with a paper towel works good too
I found this cake in Pinterest, a week ago. And I'm making it for my daughter. But I'll be making it chocolate cake and pink frosting. With the top decorations, pink, white, teal and purple. I don't know there was a youtube video lol
If you don't want to use regular food coloring, the strained juice from blackberries will give a similar purple color to the frosting in the video. For the buttercream, margarine can be used if there's no butter available.
This is the third tutorial I started to watch this morning. I noticed that the technique in this video frosting tutorial is great. Yesterday, I frosted my grandaughter's birthday cake it turned so bad. Some part of the side of the cake the frosting is moving away from the cake because it does'nt stick. Good I found your video and I'll try your technique how to frost a cake. Mam, what's the reason why some of my frosting does'nt stick in my cake? Please help me. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in this kind of job. ♥️ and God bless 🙏.
I personally thing that cooling-chilling the cake is better for a crumb coat, but I will try out the method for a crumb coat and compare, thanks this was really helpful!
Ooo I’ll be watching this video again on Sunday! I’m making my mum a birthday cake! What colour theme should I do it? White and Blue / White and Yellow / White and Green
Can you recommend an easier or beginner friendly 3 layer cake recipe if I'm just wanting to practice doing the decorating part? I see that the cake recipe used in the video is for an intermediate level.
I’m making a unicorn cake for my daughters 4th birthday. It’s going to be a vanilla cake with 3 layers, in between the layers blueberry filling and for the outside icing strawberry cream cheese icing. Hope it comes out good!
@4:42 you say to hold the scraper at "about a 45° angle." If its straight up and down, that is a 90° angle. Are you talking about the orientation of the scraper to the flat surface beneath the cake or hold it at a 45 against the side of the cake as you turn it?
well if you wet a paper towel and fold it and then put it in a folded foil then wrap it around your Kate Tim you will find your cake won't burn around the outside and instead stay fluffy and white
Baker Bettie, I know a hack for you and everyone that makes cakes!!! Get parchment paper on the cake it leave some space on the bottom and THEN put sprinkles so it is in a straight line
I’m trying to do a home made cake for my sons birthday.. I found a recipe I wanted to use for the icing that has cream cheese in it bc buttercream is usually too sweet for us… do you think it will be hard to frost with?
Thanks! I would suggest a 1/2 inch thick of buttercream on the sides and apply light pressure when smoothing it out. Don't scrape so much that you reach the cake.
Try Fantasia Fondant, you won't regret it. It is a very forgiving fondant with a long work time, which makes it easy to work with for beginners and pros. Fantasia Fondant is formulated with elasticity making it a high performing fondant when covering cakes or performing in silicon cake molds. The colors of Fantasia Fondant are vivid and fadeproof. This fondant will not prematurely dry, crack, tear, break and 'elephant skin.' Offers a less sweet taste that resembled a homemade marshmallow fondant.
Question? Why do you level off the cake layers? Could you not have done the parchment with a dot of frosting to hold in place, then frost the layer? What pans did you use and what cake mix? Seems to me you could have used the third layer flipped from the pan with the bottom side up. It looks beautiful with the star flowers on the top! When you scrape the sides too close you should put a marzipan or fabric ribbon around the "seam". Looks good! Dig in?!
By leveling the cakes you create a flat surface when stacking. If you didn't you would have a dome shape in the middle of your cake. Yes, you can use a dot of frosting to keep it on the parchment. The recipe for the cake and full tutorial is linked in the description box.

Very helpful tutorial , I’ve watched al your videos you are amazing . Please share how to make buttercream or icing .
I found that warming the scraper in hot water and dry it off then smooth the cake for a perfectly iced cake and smoothing with a paper towel works good too
Good tip! You can also warm it with a small blow torch.
Used this yesterday - looked beautiful! Thank you so much.
You are so welcome!
If you mix/stir the frosting/icing a little before u use it, it lessens the wholes on the icing on the cake.
@@haleylawson3281 ah could be also.
Which one is the best
Baking
Or
Licking the icing off the spoon
This is a really good informative video and i love the fact that you have also shared the buttercream recipes. Thank you

Do you have to do this gentle when you are putting the icing at the top of the cake?
Definitely , if you don’t the cake will crumble
Amazing I've always wanted to frost my cake neater
Love this decoration so much,pls hw many packs of icing sugar was enough for this cake decoration
You'll need about 3-6 cups for a 3 layer cake depending on your recipe and how much you use.
Haha thanks I'm making a cake for my cats birthday and this really helped
That's great!
Ooo I’ll be watching this video again on Sunday! I’m making my mum a birthday cake! What colour theme should I do it? White and Blue / White and Yellow / White and Green

OMG this is going to help me so much since my mum said I can go to the junior bake off in 2022
I hope you win the show and you don’t have too have luck cuz you’ll do great!
Thanks for the opportunity am learning
Thin out your buttercream with a little milk or water to get a smoother finish
I definitely çant wait to try making this cake!!
Go for it!
well if you wet a paper towel and fold it and then put it in a folded foil then wrap it around your Kate Tim you will find your cake won't burn around the outside and instead stay fluffy and white
Waww everything is really beautiful! ❤️👌
