Thanks so much! 😊

I'm so glad it was useful! Thank you for the lovely comment!

Thanks so much! 😊

Cream cheese is very tricky! I recommend starting with buttercream because it’s much more cooperative 😊

That's so great to hear!

Thanks so much 😊

Happy it's useful!

You are very welcome!

Hi! I put the layers in the fridge for an hour or the freezer for 15-30 minutes before I frost them. I share more tips and tricks for smooth and crumb-free frosting here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bNb2hxJdbqY.html

My pleasure!

Oh perfect! I shared another 10 rainbow cake hacks in today's tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Sp5fFSuVst4.html

So sorry to hear that! It sounds like the buttercream was either too stiff or too cold or the hole in your piping bag was too big. If you make it again, if you can't stir it easily you can add a spoonful or two of milk to thin it out and then it will come through the piping tip more easily. Also, if it's very cold in the room, the buttercream can get too stiff to pipe easily. And finally, make sure when you cut the hole at the end of the piping bag that the piping tip sits so that only half of the piping tip is sticking out from the bag, so that it's snug and secure. Having soft (not too stiff) buttercream and a secure piping tip should prevent the piping tip from popping out and also means the buttercream will be easy to pipe with very little pressure from your wrist. Hope that helps!

Thank you so much!

Buttercream needs to be at room temperature when you spread it onto a cake and smooth it. You can chill the cake before frosting it or after frosting it, but if you chill just the buttercream it will get too firm to spread and smooth.

My 4 Minute Buttercream (made with butter and powdered sugar / icing sugar)

They're 4 inches wide

@@BritishGirlBakes alright thank you 😊

Use ganache befr applyng fondant on cakes .

🤣your creativity is on another level ❤️

It's usually great but charcoal can affect the absorption of medications - so just remember to let people know if you use charcoal! I didn't realise for ages and I love the aesthetic of black cakes, which accidentally lowered my thyroxine absorption-oops 😂😂

​@@sharynebaatjies8039 😂😂😂😂

Interesting .. is there any particular brand you use ?

Wow, what a great tip!

Light edges taste and look soo much better

😂

I love eating dark edges I feel like they are my pre tasty

Trimming the edges makes for a more tender cake but the dark edges taste better. What looks better is a matter of taste. I like the look of the dark edges.

Thanks 🤗

Hi! What's wrong with the sound, please?
