    So I’m making someone’s wedding cake for the first time, and I’m really excited but just want to make sure it goes well! The cake is going to be on display in a barn in the shade, but it will still technically be outdoors in a location that is typically 90-100 degrees 😅😬So in regards to your condensation tips with using the paper towels to dry it off until it reaches the same temperature, if I continue to wipe it until it reaches that temperature, will it stop sweating once it’s reached that temperature?

    Oh a really helpful tutorial. Thank you. A question though, can a dark chocolate drip cake be kept in the 'fridge wrapped in cling film. I'm a little concerned because I have to transport cake a few hours before setting up. What will happen to the drip? Thank you x

    • @BritishGirlBakes
      @BritishGirlBakes  Рік тому +1

      Yes, the cake can be refrigerated with a drip. If you follow the steps for chilling the cake before wrapping, the wrap won't damage the drip or the frosting on the cake. Where are you setting up the cake - somewhere air conditioned/cool hopefully?

    Hi, i live in the caribbean. Whenever i do a crumb coat and put my cake in the refrigerator (not the freezer) to set for about 20 mins , it sweats and my frosting does not set firm enough to wipe the sweat off. What do i do?

    • @BritishGirlBakes
      @BritishGirlBakes  5 місяців тому

      What kind of frosting are you using? Buttercream made with powdered sugar and butter sets firm but frostings like whipped cream do not.

    Hi, your children are so cute and your videos so helpful!!Is it important that the film is touching the cake, or can it be hovering a bit on top? I saw now, after overnight in the freezer some signs of condensation on the wrap...what do I do now?

    • @BritishGirlBakes
      @BritishGirlBakes  Рік тому +1

      Is the condensation on the inside of the wrap or the outside? The film doesn't need to touch the cake but it does need to seal the cake so it should be wrapped tightly to prevent any air and moisture getting in. If the condensation is on the inside you'll need to dab the cake with a paper towel when you take it out, to absorb those droplets, and dab periodically until the cake has thawed and the droplets stop forming.

    Yeah, but this doesn't help when you have to deliver a cake to a client and you don't want them to get condensation when they take it out of the fridge in their own homes. I cannot suggest a client to pat it with a paper towel, lol
