Thanks for the excellent tutorial. Will the sheets work OK with Swiss meringue buttercream too?
You’re the most informative human on UA-cam thanks a ton🥰
I have learned so much from you 🥰❤️❤️
Adorei a técnica! Infelizmente não falo inglês, sugiro legenda em Português, gostaria muito de poder entender o que você fala.
Can i use wafer paper over whipped cream frosting?
Please talk about bubble issues! Because that's all I've having with these things. I've tried applying in all the ways I've read online and only once have not had bubbles and that was using fresh buttercream as an adhesive. I tried that technique again and I got bubbles. Some people say don't ice it cold, don't put in the fridge and some say you can do all those things. Help!
Can it be used on whipped cream?
Thanks for the tutorial. Interesting. Please, would like to know, how you cut a cake with icing sheets.
Yes.
For how many hrs sugar sheet cakes can be refrigerate. Does it gets soked if kept for more time on cake or fridge
That damask pattern is gorgeous!
I'd never heard of these before, but I had seen patterned wafer paper, which I really wanted to give a try. Now I'm not sure - are there pros and cons to using each? Like I guess wafer paper might not go hard and crack as easily, maybe? But then the icing sheets look more opaque than I imagine wafer paper would be.
Just as you said - icing sheets are thicker and more opaque, but they're also less temperamental when it comes to humidity so they won't peel off the cake from humidity in the fridge or climate
what type of scrapper did you use at the 10:59 mark. thanks
Thank you so much for this tutorial are these icing sheet same with wafer paper?
No, they're not the same as wafer paper, they're made with sugar whereas wafer paper is usually made with rice flour. They're more resilient to humidity that wafer paper so they stay attached to buttercream better than wafer paper does :)
Hello very informative video could you please tell me where I can purchase these Icing sheets I need plain ones which I print myself.
Thanks.

Hello .Thank you for the idea.what kind of frosting did you use? Is this technique OK for white chocolate ganache ?
I used my 4 Minute Buttercream but yes, white chocolate ganache would work perfectly!
@@BritishGirlBakes Thank you
Can you add the sheet to a cold cake just out of the fridge.. thank you
No as mentioned at 1:01 the frosting sheet won’t stick if your buttercream has crusted. The frosting is the glue.
Can we apply icing sheet on whipped cream cake or ganache covered cake
Not sure about cream but on ganache yes, though ganache sets very quickly so you have to be super quick!
Hi, what’s the size of the pan used for the tall cake please? (the one covered with white and black pattern)
6 inch I think
She said it was a 4” cake at 3:58
Is this icing paper or wafer paper
Can it be added to a whipped cream cake?
I would imagine yes, but I haven't tried it myself. If you try it please let me know how it goes!
@@BritishGirlBakes Hi! Can you refrigerate the cake with icing sheet?
Where can I get this sheets?
Online available? I m from India
She has a discount code for sugar-art.ca in the description
I added my sugar sheet to my buttercream cake and it looked gorgeous!! But next day my cake was warm and all the sheet was melting 😣
Oh no! When it's hot here I keep my cakes in the fridge until a few hours before I serve them because I'm scared of them dropping or melting
@@BritishGirlBakes - if my party is at 6pm, when do you recommend that I decorate my cake with buttercream AND place my edible print on?
👍👍
Are they suitable for vegetarian?
Some are vegan or vegetarian. You have to check around online.
I cut a circle out of an icing sheet and it wouldn't come off the acetate. Disaster
Put it in the freezer for 1 minute. It will lift right off of the acetate.
Are the sheets edible?
Yep! They're very very thin sheets of sugar
What you said at 3:10 about your cake not being straight at the top causing the sheet not to adhere evenly. I commented that I noticed that before not to be rude but to tell you.. Im guessing you put more pressure toward the bottom where you hold your bench scraper & it causes some of your cakes to have a bit of a slant toward the top. You can tell youre very dedicated. I was only trying to lyk... Not to be hurtful. Hope you took it that way
British people sound so intense like they mean every word😅
I was thinking the same thing. I'm glad someone noticed. With that said, I love her accent. Yes, I'm from the U.S.
@Angel Yeah I am lol
Leila Adams Lol! We are either serious or witty with a sarcastic sense of humour! 😂
I very much enjoy your channel and your content, but I need to correct you on your advice to put any colour frosting under an edible image sheet because it will not bleed through. That is 100% wrong. They are NOT opaque. And at 12:03 of this video you can plainly see the purple frosting bleeding through the white zigzag of the pattern on the frosting sheet you used. As a pastry chef who has been using, designing and selling edible image sheets for nearly 20 years and having used almost every brand there is, I can tell you, there isn't one out there that will not bleed through the underlying colour of whatever you use be it frosting, royal icing, ganache, chocolate, fondant, marzipan whipped cream, etc., etc., .... They are designed that way. They are meant to become part of the frosting, so that when you cut the cake they don't just crush under the knife like wet cardboard. And yes, you can cut the edible image sheets without the acetate on provided you have clean, dry, cool hands (wear food handling gloves if your hands get hot or sweaty). It is much easier to cut intricate patterns out of the frosting sheets without the backing on. But save the backing to store it on in the airtight bag until ready for use. Also, if you find them difficult to remove from the acetate, just pop in the freezer for 30-60 seconds and they'll lift right off.
Great tip! Thank you! I didn't notice the purple showing through but you're right - if you look closely it does add a purple tinge to the white part of the icing sheet.
How long in advance would I be able to apply an icing sheet to my swiss meringue buttercream cake? I plan on doing a piano faultline cake for someone and would like to do it the night before delivery...🤔
@@naomihazel4936 As long as you prevent moisture/condensation building up on your cake by avoiding extreme temperature changes, you can apply an edible image many days if not weeks) in advance (as long as the cake is properly packaged). Apply image and place in freezer in window-less cake box. Wrap outside of box with plastic wrap if you intend on keeping in freezer for more than a couple days. When ready to continue project, move the cake from freezer to refrigerator (and take off outer wrap) to avoid condensation build up. DO NOT take from freezer to room temperature after image is applied!
