    A quick tip for everyone this man is amazing great family glad he’s here for us. I haven’t bought your book yet, but I will be buying it soon. Just got into an accident couple of months ago. It’s been terrible, but I’m surviving but back to the cake everybody what I did was, I refrigerated the cake overnight Then poured blueberry jam that I strained over the top but be careful not to go over the edges. Good luck JP from Miami.

    Pro CIA tip: Freeze your cakes hard before assembly and decoration. It makes assembly and decoration so much easier and the results really shine. Also, freezing the cakes immediately upon cooling keeps them very moist. -Got this from a CIA certificated wedding cake baker.

    @cmclaren7 5 місяців тому +42

    Warning: cake strips are not just strips of fabric. If you just put wet strips of fabric around your cake pans, you will be disappointed. Cake strips are pieces of batting, covered with fabric. It's the batting that makes them work because it can retain moisture longer than "pieces of fabric". Good news, you can make your own cake strips with aluminum foil and paper toweling. Fold over the paper toweling until it's about 1/8 inch thick and will wrap around your cake pan. Lay it out onto a piece of foil that is longer than the paper toweling piece. Wet the paper and seal it in the foil. Wrap this around your cake pan and bend the ends of the foil to lock it in place. Better news, cake strips are not expensive and once you try making them you will happily purchase some. They are great and last forever.
