My husband says I am a good baker but IMO and as a fact, my cakes have always lacked that professional smoothness and evenness. Hopefully, this vid will give me the encouragement I need to take it to the next level. Thank you!
You can also take a good quality paper towel like Viva, slightly moisten it, then gently press it against the cake with the off-set spatula and smooth it out. My ex-SIL took a Wilton Cake Decorating class and I helped her out once. I picked up a few tricks from her.
I invested in cake baking strips that wrap around the side of the pans before baking and they help keep the top flat and there’s no need to cut off the sides of the cake because they don’t get hard and crispy but stay soft and moist. A real revelation.
I have only just started cake decorating like this and I find Jemma's instruction so easy to follow. Have just iced my first cake with buttercream and I found that for final smoothing it helps to warm knife blade in hot water, dry it off quickly then smooth off icing. Works a dream! Thanks Jemma, you've inspired me.
That's how they used to teach you to get a smooth finish, before they had all of these gadgets. We used to add icing to level it, too. I'm 65, so that tells you how long ago it could be 😁
Trying this for the first time today and my cake is currently chilling in the fridge. It could've gone better, but I realise that practice makes perfect, so I'm not giving up yet! Xx
+Cupcake Jemma Hi Jemma, I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I must say - I'm already addicted! ;-) I love your recipes, I love the way you make the videos cool and funny, and I LOVE the way you speak English (I'm German, and I'm an 'anglophile', and I love the English language - but only spoken by the right people!). :-) But what strikes me most is the way you "handle" all the things you work with. You are so gentle and careful, you could almost say tender, with everything - I can really see how much you love working with the different ingredients! And you are also sooooo patient, I wish I were half as patient! I bake a lot, but it always has to be quick and easy. I don't care about sifting the flour, for example, and when I see that a recipe has many stages, I don't even start it, if you need a piping bag I try to find a way around it ... (to be continued ... ) You made me see the difference - I work superficially, you work thoroughly, and probably that's one of the most important reasons why my 'products' are not like yours! :-) Thanks a lot for your inspiration - it's much fun watching you, and I learn so much from you! I'm sure my next baking experience will be completely different, thanks to your influence!
Ive been tried to figure this out years ago. Not a cake decorator but still want my cakes to look at least some what pretty. I ended up giving up on baking ( not for this reason) And now years late yippee we have internet and UA-cam and wonderful people like yourself willing to share the know hows. Thank you now I need cake scrapper and turntable and see how I go. until that time Ill just put up with not so pretty cakes. Thank you again.
This helps so much. Did a buttercream cake recently and I didn’t trim the sides which was my first big error, and also the buttercream was too moussey. Think I’m going to make a cake just to test these techniques!
You kind of remind me of Anna Olson in the way you explain absolutely everything, down to the tiniest detail. Which leaves your viewers with the confidence to replicate your recipes. Well done.I love your channel. Can't wait to start baking xx
just one thing, can you have the camera more on the cake rather than on you, dont take me wrong is just because i dont want to miss a second of your amazing lesson.
Using damp cake strips on the out side of the ting to bake the cakes prevents the cakes browning and over rising so you get paler cakes sponge and not having to level off and cut it and less waste too !! It was my auntie who was a judge at baking shows and of course a professional bakers as she gave me the tip of she been baking for 40 odd years x
I have never made a cake in my life but it was my birthday yesterday and i had no cake for my birthday..... So I suggested to my mum that id like some cake decorating tools haha so I am now the proud owner of a Turntable, Piping set, cake leveler, offset spatula, mixing bowl, cookie cutters & a few other extra stuff.. I am going to attempt to make my own cakes for my family's birthdays because we live in the middle of nowhere and the supermarket cake is not very nice at all.. I found this video very informative Thank you & WISH ME LUCK
the mist crucial part of demonstration when I wanted to see what she was doing... and the camera was filming her face... I failed to see the logic there.
right? I tried so many times...and haven't been able to get that finish :(..... I'm not a Profesional baker, but I really like it...guess I should keep practicing
rokaya boucherabine Have you tried dipping your scraper in hot water? It warms it up enough to gently melt the outer layer into a super smooth finish. I use a metal scraper, dip it in the water for about 10 seconds, wipe off the water on a paper towel, and then start smoothing. Re-dip every once in a while to keep the scraper hot.
No joke! I did this tonight and first of all, my BC looked terrible. Second, my cake was way too crumbly and impossible to cut like she did. Third, I couldn't get the air out of my BC.
Ryn 2011 Two fails so far- looks so easy but harder than it looks. anything you have to practice at is not very easy at the start. It can be both frustrating and exhausting if it doesn't turn out right.
ShattyMcPants It’s about coordination. It is not hard. Fact is, most people trying aren’t exactly used to working with their hands. Woodworking, painting, etc. THAT’s hard. Learning to frost a cake is about as easy as it gets. If that is exhausting for you, then maybe it’s best to stick to easier things like learning to walk or chewing gum.
Just discovered Jemma, and I keep finding myself scrambling for pen and paper to take note of what she says. The best cake/icing tutorials I have seen anywhere so far! I can't wait to try it out
You made it look so easy Gemma. Will try it next week for my son birthday cake. Can u fully decorate the cake and keep it in the fridge for the next day or it has to be frosted fully on the same day ?
We found this so therapeutic to watch. Thank you for the tips Jemma. We're not sure our first attempt will look quite this good but we're looking forward to giving it a go =)
This video gave me the exact info I was looking for. Thanks. I have all of these things except the leveler and the cake thing you used to take off the edges. Now all I need is a little more practice and the right size boxes to transport them in.
Buying inexpensive cake level strips and putting them around the pans for baking saves heaps of time and saves any of the time consuming levelling done here. Cake layers bake up perfectly flat and level every time and you don't need to trim the edges either. Saves time and cake!
I have never thought to cut the sides of the cake like this because I've never seen it done before! I usually just shave as much crust off the sides as I can. From now on I'll be using your technique! Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you so much for giving us some tips on how to get are cake to look professionally done. My ma's birthday is coming up soon and wants me to make a cake for her. This video will help me a lot to create a professional cake for my ma. I have watched it a lot
For the icing in between the layers can i use whipped cream instead i find that to be less sweet than buttercream, or will it not work and is there any other type of icing you reccommend
maryam eslami ahh thank you so much, i was afraid it might not work with whipped cream but thanks, hopefully it will work great for my birthday this Saturday.
Or you could try ermine butter cream It's amazing! Ermine buttercream/ boiled milk buttercream/ flour buttercream/ less sweet buttercream Just google it and it's so great however I do recommend you choose a recipe where the sugar is dissolved in the milk Rather than whipped in the butter Just trust me
Thanks Jemma! I've been decorating for years, but have always struggled with getting everything perfectly straight and even in a short amount of time. I used your American buttercream recipe - which is fabulous by the way - and it was so easy to cover a 12" 3-layer cake with your help.
Hi Jemma, a really silly question. Before you do your crumb layer, you mentioned that you put the cake in the fridge. Do you place it in as is or cover it, im always scared it will dry out a cake? Thank you, your videos are quite helpful
Don't get me wrong, I love your so-sensible British delivery Jemma, and your cake is beautiful but the video didn't tell me what I need to know. It went from "just sweep it round" (the sides) to "finish off the top"", but it didn't cover detailed technique or any of the reasons that the icing might NOT smooth out beautifully. Im sitting with a perfect cake dummy and I've practised at length (many times!) but the top particularly.. every stroke leaves a line. I'd LOVE it if you addressed this issue specifically (or pointed me to where you did) as this Achilles heel is ruining my otherwise beautiful cakes. Thanks for a great basics vid though.
#cupcake jemma i love your channel ... i am crazy about baking .... thank you soo much for teach me ... can you make mini cupcakes and mini cakes please ?? jemma in Pakistan here is not find cake lever what i can use easily to level the cake??
Girl u need to apply the great British back off season 7 you'd be great and ur subscribers will support u and can we mention it on you'r next Thursday video and we will say yes or no If you'r subscribers want you too. Thank you and please mention it I'd really love you to.

Her crumb coat is still better than my finished cake
ugh same
When she said "It's not pretty" i was rolling around like what are you talking about it is GORGEOUS!!
Haha same lol.
The crumb coat alone is utter perfection! It would make a lovely naked frosting cake with florals and gold leaf!
The production quality and delivery is amazing. Your accent and tone is relaxing.
Trying this for the first time today and my cake is currently chilling in the fridge. It could've gone better, but I realise that practice makes perfect, so I'm not giving up yet! Xx
This is the best beginner cake decorating video I have seen.
You can clearly see what she’s doing guys, great job Jemma helped a lot thanks
Still the best baking teacher on UA-cam. Very thorough with explanations, thank you!
I love how this was published on my birthday, and I'm using this video to help make a cake for my birthday.
What did you put on the cake after you levelled them before you added butter cream?
+Cupcake Jemma Hi Jemma, I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I must say - I'm already addicted! ;-)
I love your recipes, I love the way you make the videos cool and funny, and I LOVE the way you speak English (I'm German, and I'm an 'anglophile', and I love the English language - but only spoken by the right people!). :-)
But what strikes me most is the way you "handle" all the things you work with. You are so gentle and careful, you could almost say tender, with everything - I can really see how much you love working with the different ingredients!
And you are also sooooo patient, I wish I were half as patient! I bake a lot, but it always has to be quick and easy. I don't care about sifting the flour, for example, and when I see that a recipe has many stages, I don't even start it, if you need a piping bag I try to find a way around it ... (to be continued ... )
You made me see the difference - I work superficially, you work thoroughly, and probably that's one of the most important reasons why my 'products' are not like yours! :-)
Thanks a lot for your inspiration - it's much fun watching you, and I learn so much from you! I'm sure my next baking experience will be completely different, thanks to your influence!

Same gurl, same. Also, moussey how?
Use a spatula to smooth the buttercream and knock out the air before you apply :) can always refrigerate it too
Have watched so many videos on how to do this. Yours is without doubt the best! All the others waffle on! Love this, thank you.

How do you get your buttercream so white!? I love baking and decorating cakes but I always put food colouring in my buttercream as it is always a bit yellow, but I was to know how you make it so white.. anyone have any tips??
I wanna say it becomes more white the longer you beat the butter. (Check out her Butter Cream recipe video. I think she mentions it)
Claire Tracy americolour makes a white food colouring which I just add a few drops of and it makes the colour a lot closer to a white colour
Claire Tracy beat the butter lots first
add atiny bit of purple ,it contrarests de yellow of butter
Use a lighter coloured butter such as lurpack and beat for longer as this makes it paler in colour
You are one of the few loveable pastry chef i always admire of👍🏽👏🏽
"Straight tops"
LMFAOAOAOAO PLEASE
Love your videos!! You are great to watch and listen to :) Very detailed instructions but to the point! Excited to ice my cake today.
How in the heck do you eliminate...or at least reduce...the air pockets in the frosting?
Mike L would love to know the answer to this. Just finished the ombré iced rainbow cake and there were loads of bubbles in the icing. Hard to shift the icing around too because of the colour constraints.
Mike L Have you tried dipping your scraper in hot water? It warms it up enough to gently melt the outer layer into a super smooth finish. I use a metal scraper, dip it in the water for about 10 seconds, wipe off the water on a paper towel, and then start smoothing. Re-dip every once in a while to keep the scraper hot.
Thank you very much for this tutorial Jemma. 😍😍😍
