You're amazing Karolyn! 🥺☺️🙌❤️🙏 Thank you so much for sharing with us. Even for those of us who can't pay for subscription right now. You are always so good about blessing us with free content. ❤️ I can't begin to tell you how much I have grown through watching you. No one else compares! Cheers to you! ☕

Just when I start second guessing myself, I see comments like this. Thank you so much, you made my day! 🙏

@ggjr61 2 месяца назад

Always amazed at the RU-vid cake decorators who can’t get smooth buttercream. Seeing you do it shows how skilled you are compared to most.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

Wow, really? I never knew that. Thank you!🙏

@sweetsanddandy8639 2 месяца назад

Even on their video tutorials about how to smooth it. Lol. Most definitely stop at "good enough".

@lidiaflores5613 2 месяца назад

Gracias por este video. Lo estaba esperando. Y gracias por activar los subtítulos 👍🏼

@catherinekatatumba 2 месяца назад

Yes, I would be interested in knowing or learning how you come up with your cakes designs. Thank you Karolyn for this video. At least, now I know I am not the only one facing cake challenges you mentioned.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

Okay great, I gotta organize my thoughts so it all makes sense!

@greshamfam1 2 месяца назад

Definitely would like a course on coming up with designs!!!!! Love watching your videos

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

Awesome! Thank you!

@DaughterofDiogenes 2 месяца назад

Every single cake I make makes me want to rip my hair out at least once in the process. I think that’s why they are so good and costly 😂😂

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

I feel like it's more normal to be stressed while making cakes than happy 😂 That's why I repeat my mantra..."It's cake, have fun!" to remind myself that even my stressful days are better than sitting at a desk selling insurance (which is what I used to do!)

@raincheck01 2 месяца назад

I wanted to throw a cake against the wall last night. Nothing was going right! I survived and the cake did too lol. It was touch and go though.

@philipplouden5892 2 месяца назад

Very good points in this. The amount of work that goes into a custom cake is so much more than what the average person sees/thinks. The doweling one and the ac one are so important. It’s tragic to see a beautiful cake slip and slide or fall apart after all the hard work. ❤

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

Exactly!

@truthseeker8328 27 дней назад

Thank you for this video Karolyn! I'm a hobby baker who has been baking for decades and making specialty birthday cakes for family and friends off and on for a long time. And like someone else mentioned I often want to pull my hair out, or throw everything in the trash, frequently. Friends and family tell me I should start a business, but for some of the reasons you mentioned (among others) I will likely stay a hobby baker who makes special cakes for family as well as cakes for kids in foster care and occasionally sells a cake to someone I know.

@KarolynsKakes 26 дней назад

It's definitely a love - hate relationship at times. It can get stressful when it's a full time gig, so it may be best to stay small if you're not prepared to take that on yet!

@juqettalawson4354 2 месяца назад

Girl i swear i been watching you for a long time and i have learn alot from you and i thank you so much!!!❤

@thamarhoen8943 2 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing Karolyn 💜 I would love for you to put your creative process into an educational tool. You're a great teacher and amazing cake baker/decorator.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

Wonderful, thank you!🙏

@sherripeterson5227 2 месяца назад

Omg! You are so right! They show you a picture and say how much, which means "is $25 enough?" Many times I want to quick.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

I understand! If they want grocery store prices, then they shouldn't be ordering custom cakes!

@BrandiDodwell 2 месяца назад

I could not agree more with this! I think I have been more stressed doing this than when I worked outside of the home. The late nights, time away from my kids, lack of food/meal time 🤣, cramped hands, sore arms and knee pain, etc SUCK! But at the same time, being able to express my creativity and make others happy with CAKE are worth it sometimes. Then sometimes, like I commented on another's post, you want to pull a Wylie Coyote/Roadrunner situation and see the "BOOM" caption bubble over it and watch it explode into tiny little pieces for the birds to enjoy! 🤣 Also, yes, I would love to see how you come up with designs for your cakes.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

Exactly!! People don't understand what goes into making a perfect cake until they try for themselves. Things rarely go your way the entire time. It must be even more challenging with kids!

I've been asked to make my friends wedding cake, do you have any videos given tips on doing wedding cakes.

@tessmazie 2 месяца назад

I'm still struggling with marshmallow fondant, hopefully can get the type of results you get. Meanwhile, store bought is what I have to do.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

What's your issue with the MF?

@ThomasandNia 2 месяца назад

This was a great video. How do you figure out the size of decorations for the cake. I struggle getting them the right size

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

I always bake / fill / ice my cakes first. (They stay in the fridge during the week while I make the decorations.). This way, I can take a ruler to the cake where I want to put a decoration to measure how big I can make it!

@annwhitehouse6223 2 месяца назад

Is it ok to double up the cream cheese in butter cream

@tdawnys1654 2 месяца назад

Cake decorating... The only time you get satisfaction from creating something amazing, but also want to see it destroyed (cut and served). Lol

@BrandiDodwell 2 месяца назад

YES!!! So much satisfaction when you see that bad boy go out the door and see the look on customers faces, but also want to pull a Wylie Coyote/Roadrunner situation and see the "boom" caption bubble over it at the same time! LOL

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

It's funny cause it's true! 😂😂

@carissmass2897 2 месяца назад

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

@shaylahcampbell3000 2 месяца назад

How long should I freeze my cake layers after I bake my cake layers? Is it a different time with different sizes?

@tessmazie 2 месяца назад

You can freeze as little as 30 minutes but best if overnight. You can freeze for a couple weeks without issue.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

I agree with what Tess said. I prefer to bake and freeze one day (freeze overnight), then thaw / fill the next day. If you can't freeze overnight, which has happened to me before, I freeze about 1-3 hours, depending on the size. The smaller cakes will freeze faster than the larger ones!

@shaylahcampbell3000 2 месяца назад

@@KarolynsKakes Okay thank you. I have one more question. When you deliver your cakes are they froze or just chilled in the fridge?

@buschenkomarie 2 месяца назад

My friend thought a $20 cake she bought at a grocery store was a lot. Then she said she should have asked me to decorate a cake for her father-in-law. Ingredients, utilities, and my time would put my salary range at MINUS five cents an hour. No thanks. This is why I only want it as a hobby and for family members.

@KarolynsKakes 2 месяца назад

Ummmm, yeah, I would have turned that one down too. Tell her to make it and see how much work it is! Also, she would never work for -$0.05 / hour, so why would she expect you to?!
