Alan you are the very best teacher ever, very thorough knowledge and expertise in your field thank for all your tutorials. Your patience 😉 is a vertue.
Thank you so much Chef Alan. I am a good baker but not advanced in icings etc. I was going to order a Wedding Cake for my daughter's wedding and then I watched this video. I now feel positive about going ahead myself and feeling excited about adding the lace to fondant cakes. Thanks again. Ann

So im making my own birthday cake with fondant and lace and layered. I've never done it before lol but I made a commitment to try and master each new hobbie at least once time each so this is one. Thank you for the video 🥳❤️
OMB!!!! O mannnnnnn! I have ALWAYS been intimidated by lace. Nevr tried it. But after watching your video and the way you explain, in a very intricate way, i KNOW now that i CAN do it. Im so excited to try it. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us decorating 'babies'! 😇💙
I made lace for my best friends birthday cake last year and the lace dried out before I could get to use it. Since it was my first time making lace, and I'd put (almost literally) blood sweat and tears into making that lace, I used the steamer I use to set the color on gumpaste flowers to steam the lace. Since I also didn't know about the trick of mixing the color powder with alcohol, I used a dry brush and brushed the color the way you color flowers (I learned a lot making that cake! LOL) As a result, not only did I rehydrate the lace, I set the color on it as well. If you'd made this video a year ago, I sure would have loved having your expertise, but I wouldn't have learned as much! I love your lace, and especially putting the ribbon on the cake behind the lace! I saw where you had the lace in the ziplock bag, could I wrap my lace in parchment paper before storing it in the plastic bag?
Oh that want makes me want to try the sugar art everything you do is just so exciting and interesting I'm having a great time with the frosting in the cakes in the looks and the compliments thanks so much🎉 Juanita
Especial admiro muchisimo como me enseña a llevar este arte de azucar en detalles tan hermosos como este encaje tan flexible gracias por su Maestria muchas bendiciones
As always ultra detailed and great tips. Love your teaching techniques and advices because not always is easy. Complications are possible. Thank you very much for your teaching.
Been "BINGE WATCHING" your vids......🍰🎂🍮 Thanks so much Chef! I've learned a LOT of new techniques in addition learned BETTER ways to do some things I "thought" I already knew how to do! You are a GREAT TEACHER CHEF! Thanks for the vids. I will be watching OFTEN! Brenda aka Grams
The lace is beautiful you make it look so easy, your very talented love your videos they have been a great help, you give great ideas and tips, Thank you very much for Sharing!!! Liz...
Hola señor Alan me gusta ver mucho sus videos le entiendo porque esplica muy bien aunque no entiendo el inglés .pero lo que no entiendo son los ingredientes que usa por ejemplo los encajes le quedan muy hermosos gracias por compartir saludos de Guadalajara México bendiciones
You make it look so easy! I've tried cake lace before, without great success in the oven (It did great drying overnight) Maybe I just need to try your brand Ha! Thanks Chef. Love your vids.
I know right? The problem is that I really need it to dry in the oven. Waiting overnight it's not realistic, unless you make lace every evening for a month for future projects LOL. BTW I'm a subscriber to your channel :D
Thank you for this video. I love to decorate all kinds of confections but cakes give me angina. I'm going to stick with it. I will probably feel less stressed when decorating, the more I do it. I am going to give the lace a try.
Awesome presentation and great teacher. Question: Will i be able to put the lace decorated treats in the refrigerator please? Will the lace hold nicely? Thank you 😊
Chef Alan, I am decorating a wedding cake but not making it. It will be finished in a crusting buttercream and the bride has requested lace and sugar flowers…all of which I have made. In researching lace and buttercream I came across your wonderful tutorial. My dilemma is that the buttercream will probably have crusted before I receive the cake. Is there any way to attach this lace? Or do I need to recreate it in royal icing? I was thinking maybe using buttercream in dots on the back of the lace as “glue” might work. What are your thoughts please? Deb (aka grandma of the groom)
5/19/19 Amazing what a person can do in cake decoration.....you are talent for sure.....do you bake everyone's cakes in your family.....would love to see some you have done.....does your wife do this or any of your kids ?
I forgot to also ask this question if you put a satin ribbon or other on a buttercream cake can you place the lace on top of the ribbon and if so how would you attach that?
I thoroughly enjoyed your video and hopefully learnt a lot. Can I ask where you purchased the full sheet of lace from which was beautifully fine and what I am looking for. Many thanks
Thank you Denise. I sometimes do use a large rollling pin and gently roll the fabric out of the mat. It only works on some designs. On really intricate designs it tends to rip them.
Alan, I watch this often. Just wondering, I am a chocolatier and use the airbrush and colored cocoa butter as well as transfer sheets. Any recommendations for using lace on chocolates?
