It looks stunning Maryam! One thing that i find helpful is actually chilling the cake for like 15 minutes with the stencil on before taking it off, have you tried this?! Iam not sure if this was more efficient or merely less nerve hacking !

@CakesbyMK 4 года назад

Thank you Lamya! :) And I've never tried that before but I imagine that it would work great too especially for more intricate stencils. Thanks for sharing your tips! :)

Hi MK! How would you make the stenciling gold with a luster dust? Beautiful cake! Love your videos! 😊💕

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Hi there! :) What I would do is apply the buttercream to the stencil, then with the stencil still on the cake, place it in the fridge for about 15 mins and then once the buttercream is firm use a big brush to brush the lustre dust on the stencil, then remove the stencil. Hope that made sense :)

@wendywashama3167 4 года назад

Fantastic video maryam 🥰 could you use abc for the stencilling against smb covered cake? Love your channel ❤ so glad I came across your channel ❤ 🙌

@CakesbyMK 4 года назад

Hello Wendy! Thank you so much, so glad to hear you're enjoying the videos :). I have tried this on a SMBC before and found that you can use it when the SMBC is very cold, but it's really difficult to get a perfect finish and if the SMBC is even slightly soft it comes off with the stencil. It definitely works for adding random patches of stencilling though, but yeah I'd definitely recommend sticking to a crusting buttercream if you're planning to wrap the stencil around the whole cake :). Hope that helps!

@claratiphine5210 4 года назад

This is great! Can you also use ermine buttercream?

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Thanks Clara! As far as I am aware ermine buttercream doesn't crust, so I don't think it will work well if you're looking for a clean look around your entire cake. However, if you're just looking for patches of stencil around your cake then it may work with a very cold cake :)

@oyewumiyusuff7738 4 года назад

This is beautiful Mk. However doesn't the cake sweat out after removing it from fridge

@CakesbyMK 4 года назад

Thank you Oyewumi! In this case my cake didn't sweat, but I do understand what you're talking about :). There are a few ways to prevent cakes from sweating, e.g. gradually increasing the temperature when taking the cake out of the fridge (this can be hard if you don't have a climate controlled room/area to keep your cake). At the moment the temperature in New Zealand is very cold, so my cake is less likely to sweat because it doesn't get 'shocked' by heat. If your cake does start to sweat, then dab it with a clean tissue/cloth and then apply the stencil, working with it quickly. Hope that helps! :)

@safinazellaheebocus4397 2 года назад

Hii Why does my buttercream sweat after removing it from the freezer (i put the cake in freezer for one hour before apply stencil?)

@annpham8380 3 года назад

When you scrape off the excess buttercream, are you putting the scraper right up against the stencil?

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Hi there! Yes I am :)

@ashleerobinson5 2 года назад

This cake is beautiful! When I add the buttercream on the stencil, it seems to take it off or it smudges! Any idea of what’s happening ?

@CakesbyMK 2 года назад

Heya! The most likely culprit is that the buttercream on your cake is too soft :) you'll need to refrigerate the cake until it's completely firm, and it's best to use a crusting buttercream like an American buttercream for a technique like this :)

@zaidarazak2838 Год назад

@@CakesbyMK assalamualaikum..thanks for your explanation. Now I got the answer for my smudged buttercream. Was trying to stencil for the first time but using SMBC..I was so frustrated as eventhough I chilled the cake for hours its still sticking on my stencil. Finally I gave up and change the design. I will try to use American buttercream on my next project and will see how it turn out to be. Thanks for the tips.

@halimabegum3260 3 года назад

Love the tutorial. I’m having a really bad problem of the buttercream bleeding through under my stencil☹️ any ideas on how to fix this?

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Thanks Halima! :). Oh no! If I understand what you mean correctly, then this is likely due to your buttercream being too soft, or your stencil not being wrapped tight enough around the cake. If it is the buttercream, then you will need to make it firmer (e.g. if it is an American buttercream, then you will need to add a bit more icing sugar). Hope this helps! :)

@muslimgirl6782 3 года назад

Cakes by MK , is there a way to harden swiss meringue buttercream.

@SerenityGardening 3 года назад

Great video. I wonder if SMBC covered cake and ABC stenciling might work. Any advice?

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Hi Gabriela! Hmm the problem with SMBC is that it sticks to the stencil very easily so you have to be working super quick. I think the other way around would work well though - so an ABC base and SMBC stencilling. Hope that helps! :)

@SerenityGardening 3 года назад

@@CakesbyMK Thank you so much. ABC is not an option here, people barely accept SMBC, or should I say they try tolerating it for the sake of design, but ABC is out of the question. I will try doing one side with ABC on SMBC, back to the freezer for 10-15 minutes, then do another side. I tried SMBC ON SMBC before and I did try to work fast, so I didn't have an issue with the SMBC base sticking but, with the stenciled SMBC smearing and getting under the stencil. grrrr

@juriahawi2974 3 года назад

Hi. Do you think i can use white chocolate ganache instead of American buttercream?

Hello. Can I leave the cake to crust for hours at room temperature before adding stencil

How will tis technique work in Italian meringue buttercream?

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Hi Angelica! Italian meringue will be hard as the buttercream doesn't crust. You can still do it but you will need to work very quickly otherwise the buttercream will stick to the stencil!

@mahdhialfaasy6495 3 года назад

If we keep the cake in fridge and bring back to room temparature wont the cake will get water here and there.. condensation ??

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Hi there! If you have a temperature controlled room this should not happen, but yes if the weather is hot and the cake is exposed to the weather then condensation can occur. In this case, you will just need to work very very quickly! And keep popping the cake back into the fridge :). You can also apply the stencil to the cake, pop the cake into the fridge with the stencil on, and then after about 10 minutes remove the stencil and keep repeating this process. Hope this helps!

Can i use smbc and only the cream i use on the stencil is abc?

@CakesbyMK 3 года назад

Hi there! If you're wanting a clean stencil around the entire cake then I wouldn't recommend using a SMBC as the base, as the stencil can stick to it and sometimes pull off some of the buttercream. A crusting buttercream like ABC works a lot better :). If you're only wanting it on certain parts of the cake then SMBC should be okay if you're doing it in small sections. Hope that helps!
