Not sure if this was mentioned by anyone else, but a tip with the spatula is to either butter it or spray cooking spray on it and then there’s very minimal sticking to the Rice Krispies. I also use the greased spatula to mix everything together in the bowl to cut down on the sticky messiness.
What a breath of fresh air. So many of these videos spend more time promoting themselves than their product to the point where I just have to switch off. Your relaxed and straight forward commentary was a joy to watch, no hype, brilliant! I'll definitely tune in to more.
This video has changed my life!! I watched it a year ago and this is the only way I do birthday cakes now. Just microwave marshmellows add rice crispies and off we go. I made the faraway tree, the gruffalo and today I watched it again as my daughter wants a 'worst witch' hat cake. Done! Kids love it and everyone says it is much nicer than cake as kids can just grap it in their hands while they run and play. No mess! Thank you so much, for the great exolaination. Big fan!
Thank you!!! I see soooo many people say they just go over their rkt with fondant & its fine 🙄 it really NEEDS a smooth surface before fondant goes over or you just see all the bumps! Thank you for this!! I love this tutorial! Sooooo helpful 🥰
And you’re adorable (yes I’m being sexist 🙄😑) & I loved watching this tutorial!!! And yes.. flexi smoothers are my new favorite thing ever!!! Btw where do I get that shirt???
great tutuorial! I have a few questions...how many days in advance can you prepare this before decorating with fondant? While resting overnight, should it be covered or open to air? I plan to make a standing T-Rex for my nephew's birthday, would I need to use wooden dowels in this case? How much more difficult would the standing aspect make the whole project?
What a great video :-) just 1 question: Is it posssible to store my sculptures at room temperature? I'm unsure if the ganache is going to melt. Thanks for helping me. Greetings from Austria, Caroline
Thank you so much, so glad to have found you! I’ve got a champagne bottle to make for an order next week!! I’m going to attempt to push it in to a chocolate mould that I’ve coated with butter.. wish me luck!!? Also I wondered if I might be able to crunch the rice bubbles while mushing down and kneading as much as possible that it would make for a smoother surface??
Tried the link in your bio for the foolproof ganache recipe and it seems to take me to your website with your class info… where can I find the recipe?! Thanks so much for sharing your awesome content! ☺️
Your work is amazing! I was wondering if its possible to make a knee joint model out of rice crispy or cake that moves. I need it for my arthrology assignment, but i don't want it ti go to waste, so why not make it edible 😂
Thank you. Oh my goodness when the knife hit the metal table my whole body convulsed. For me it is like fingernails on a chalk board. I note you said you are vegetarian. Would vegetarian marshmallows work? I know they are a lot more expensive but it would be good to know.
Thank you so much I needed this tutorial I have never use Rice Krispies and would love to see how you do that cute little bear 🐻 behind you I love it. But my question is how long will the Rice Krispies last if I did this in bars? Also can it be shaped at anytime or will it be to hard to mould once set. Thanks in advance for your help.
Thank you really enjoyed watching and now going to try … have to make Harley Quinn ‘horns’. Once cake anc ‘horns’ covered in fondant how can I attach please.
Just seen this video, a great tutorial and such an easy way to make RKT for sculpting so thank you, just one question, how far in advance can you make the RKT and cover in fondant to be used on cakes, thank you xx
very well explained, love the more relaxed attitude if that is the word lol u know what i mean not trying to throw in big terms/words, have subscribed so i can check out more of your videos.
Hi! Thanks for this video! Can I cover RKT sculpture with buttercream? If yes, should I use genache first to cover the RKT? I don't use fondant or sugar paste. Would love to be able to do this, though!
Don’t know if you still check comments this far out from posting or get notifications still for older postings but I’m going to leave a question. Have you done any of your busts covered in ganache and then modeling chocolate? If so, how do you feel about using modeling chocolate instead of sugar paste or fondant?
Hey Rob, very informative, I watched the whole video the other day and now I have just skimmed through it again as I am about to make a hot air balloon cake topper for a Fortnite cake, so I apologise if you addressed this in the video and i missed it... My question is, can you re-heat and reshape RKT once they have cooled? Or do you need to mould all the RKT into the desired shape at the time you first make it? Thanks
Hi Sam, thanks for watching. I’m afraid I’ve never tried remelting it, so I’m not entirely sure. Sorry I can’t be of more help, but if you give it a try, please do let me know how you get on. You’ve got me intrigued now... 🤔
2:55 Not all gelitin is made of meat btw most of it is because its easier and more common which means most candy are not vegan. But They do make gelatin from certain plants, so I'm sure you can get vegan marshmellows.
Great tutorial. Thanks for getting rite to the cake and not telling your life story. (Which I am sure is quite interesting). I would never have thought to use a ganache I was just planning to use American butter cream.
Could you make a delicate tree out of this, I'm thinking of trying a tree of life with fondant leaves? It would be difficult in cake but sounds maybe do able in this.....
Great video!! 😍 My question is how far in advance can you make an RKT? I am making a 4 layer cake with an RKT on top so I need to plan my time as I’m only an amateur, so making the RKT in advance if possible before the cake would ease my worry. Thank you so much 🥰
Like cake, RKT is best eaten within around 2-3 days, after which it will start to go a little stale. That being said, sometimes I will make RKT models further in advance and just tell people not to eat them. Particularly when it comes to things like cute dogs and bears, people are usually happy to have an excuse to keep them as a souvenir... 😉
@@MrBakersCakeSchool I can confirm it all went well and it tastes amazing! I followed your ganache recipe too, all perfect!! I took pictures to show you however I can’t seem to attach them to this comment :( thank you for your advice anyway!! X
So im making a king gidorah dragon cake and the dragon will be standing. I'm using a thick sturdy wire to help sculpt the ways the heads will be tilting and the tails. But because of the texture of the skin of the dragon would you still recommend using Ganache even though the skin is bumpy in texture?
I need a tower base to put a small gingerbread house on top of the tower (tangled castle) do I make a sheet of rly, cut and stack? Will it be strong enough to hold the gingerbread on top? Should I be using a rod in the middle? Thank you love your videos
I don't have a food scale so How can I make sure I am using equal amounts of cereal and marshmallows if I measure in ounces? I noticed those are the giant marshmallows.....could you use regular ones?
RKT can start go stale after around 3-5 days, just like cake. I have been known to make things further in advance and have just told people not to eat them, so it’s really up to you. x
As you saw in the video, I make up the RKT and shape it. I’ll then leave it to set completely solid before I carry on with the decoration - ideally overnight. But, honestly, it depends how big your make up bag will be.
I have to make the character Carnage (just his face) and I will be pushing that face into the cake…was wondering if 1..because his face has so many layers would I still need to cover the rkt in the ganache? And 2..should I use ganache or some heated marshmallows as an adhesive so that the face does not fall out of the space in the cake I’m going to carve it into?
If you think there will be enough layers to hide any lumps and bumps from the cereal, then you can probably skip the ganache. However, bear in mind that the more sugar paste you use, the heavier the model/face will be. When it comes to attaching it to the cake, I would definitely use ganache over marshmallow - marshmallows are better for adhering to something solid, like a structure. ☺️
Wonderful video and helpful but when I first opened the vid and saw "Mr. Baker", I thought he was Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad!!! Thanks for the instructions.
I don’t see why not, but it would be almost impossible to remould it after freezing. You could carve it though… As a general rule, around 2mths is a good limit for freezing items without manufacturers’ instructions. x
I tend to treat it like cake, advising people to eat with 3-5 days, but I know some people leave it longer - even up to two weeks. Rather than mould, it tends to go very stale and dry.
@@MrBakersCakeSchool thank you very much for responding. I have been asking this question of any rkt sculptor I can find...one lady said she's kept hers for up to two years...with no intent of eating it... I'm wondering if I can vacuum seal my rkt sculptures as an added defense... not to be eaten, but safely used as a decorative piece on cakes ... I'll let you know how it goes lol... thanks again
If I have no intention of eating them, I will often keep them indefinitely. You just need to keep them out of direct sunlight so that the colours don’t fade and ideally try and keep them free of dust. ☺️
Sorry, Cary… I’m in the process of transferring everything over to the new website. For my ganache recipe, you’ll need 600g of milk or dark chocolate (or 900g of white chocolate) and 300ml of double/whipping cream. Place a heat proof bowl (Pyrex or similar) over a pan of gently simmering water without allowing the bottom to touch the water. Break or slice your chocolate into small pieces and place these in the bowl. Stir regularly to distribute the heat evenly. Once the chocolate has almost melted, removed from the heat and continue stirring until completely melted. Meanwhile, place the cream into a microwave-safe jug and microwave for 2 minutes. Start whiskIng the chocolate with an electric hand whisk, and slowly pour the cream into the chocolate mixture. Continue whisking until smooth and then cover with cling film, allowing it to rest on the surface of the ganache mixture. Leave to cool to room temperature, at which point your ganache should have a peanut butter consistency. This means it’s ready to use. Hope that helps… ☺️
Not sure what I’m doing wrong, I squeezed it together to make one bulk piece and it just started crumbling the rice crispies and separating (not sticking together) :(
Man, I make this stuff in a few seconds in a Pyrex dish , zapped in the microwave, for my toppers, almost every week. Using gloves sprayed with canola spray there is no sticky fingers to deal with. People are probably going to eat what I make , so no hands without gloves, ever.
Not sure if this was mentioned by anyone else, but a tip with the spatula is to either butter it or spray cooking spray on it and then there’s very minimal sticking to the Rice Krispies. I also use the greased spatula to mix everything together in the bowl to cut down on the sticky messiness.
That's what I do too! Great minds think alike! 😊❤

I was trying to figure out how I was going to make a champaigne bottle and came across the rice krispie idea, so I'm going to try that. Thanks!
Amazing video and extremely helpful, many thanks for this. I have just sculpted a dolphin! Great tutorial.
Thank you so much for your easy to follow tutorial, I have just completed my first ever cake with rice crispy figures, I’m chuffed!
Amazing! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 You’ll have to tag me on social media - I’d love to see it!
Loved it. Thank you Rob
This was so helpful and informative! Thank you!
So good! I’m starting this now to make stitch!
What a great video :-) just 1 question: Is it posssible to store my sculptures at room temperature? I'm unsure if the ganache is going to melt.
Thanks for helping me.

Absolutely. 👌🏼
Brilliant my darling. I’m now ready to go, I’ll share the link to this video when I post my cake. Thank you. Xxx
Do you suggest to put the rkt ball sculpture in the fridge to harden or leave it on the shelf as it is. Thanks in advance, great info tutorial thnx
It should be fine to set up on the side. I only ever put RKT in the fridge if I want the ganache layer to set in a hurry… ☺️
Thanku for the reply🙏🏽, my ganached RKT is nicely set overnight it's ready to be covered now.
Thanks for the video...subscribed & liked and sent to several caker friends.😃

I've never used rice crispies but am going to attempt making a fish lol do you think not covering in ganache would help add texture to the fish?
Thank you for much for this video. If you were doing a human face, would you go about it differently? Such as the eye sockets/nose?

But because of the texture of the skin of the dragon would you still recommend using Ganache even though the skin is bumpy in texture?
Using glass bowls is safer. No leaching plastic into marshmallows. I run my greased hands along the inside of glass bowl to aid in folding.
How many days in advance can you make the Rice Krispies sculpted decorations where they’ll still work on the cake on not be too dry?
Love it
Hi. I have a question. How many days before can such decorations be made and where to store?
That's exactely what i wanted to ask 😅 did you try it yet? And can you tell me about your experiences? Thx 😊
Hi my granddaughter wants a RKT Cake in the shape of SOFT SERVE ICE CREAM,

Hi what's the best ratio mix to make a number birthday cake
Do you mean the entire cake would be constructed out of RKT?
@@MrBakersCakeSchool hi it would be the whole cake roughly 12 inches each cake thanks
Thank you for great recipe and ideas. I want to make a makeup bag for top of cake. How far in advance could I make this?
RKT can start go stale after around 3-5 days, just like cake. I have been known to make things further in advance and have just told people not to eat them, so it’s really up to you. x
@@MrBakersCakeSchool thank you. How far in advance can I make if not going to eat them?
As long as you’d like. Once it’s done, just pop it in a cardboard box, away from light, heat and dust and it will keep pretty much indefinitely. xx
@@MrBakersCakeSchool do you make and decorate straight away then leave in box?
As you saw in the video, I make up the RKT and shape it. I’ll then leave it to set completely solid before I carry on with the decoration - ideally overnight. But, honestly, it depends how big your make up bag will be.
I have to make the character Carnage (just his face) and I will be pushing that face into the cake…was wondering if 1..because his face has so many layers would I still need to cover the rkt in the ganache?

If you think there will be enough layers to hide any lumps and bumps from the cereal, then you can probably skip the ganache. However, bear in mind that the more sugar paste you use, the heavier the model/face will be. When it comes to attaching it to the cake, I would definitely use ganache over marshmallow - marshmallows are better for adhering to something solid, like a structure. ☺️

I'm coming full circle now...how far in advance can I make RKT sculptures before they become unsafe to eat?
Also, can RKT mold even if I'm careful not to add butter/water/moisture?

Your foolproof ganache recipe is not currently loaded at your blog...help. I had it written down and cannot find it and need it right away.
Sorry, Cary… I’m in the process of transferring everything over to the new website.
For my ganache recipe, you’ll need 600g of milk or dark chocolate (or 900g of white chocolate) and 300ml of double/whipping cream.
Place a heat proof bowl (Pyrex or similar) over a pan of gently simmering water without allowing the bottom to touch the water.
Break or slice your chocolate into small pieces and place these in the bowl. Stir regularly to distribute the heat evenly.
Once the chocolate has almost melted, removed from the heat and continue stirring until completely melted.
Meanwhile, place the cream into a microwave-safe jug and microwave for 2 minutes.
Start whiskIng the chocolate with an electric hand whisk, and slowly pour the cream into the chocolate mixture. Continue whisking until smooth and then cover with cling film, allowing it to rest on the surface of the ganache mixture.
Leave to cool to room temperature, at which point your ganache should have a peanut butter consistency. This means it’s ready to use.
Hope that helps… ☺️
Not sure what I’m doing wrong, I squeezed it together to make one bulk piece and it just started crumbling the rice crispies and separating (not sticking together) :(
🤔 What type of marshmallows are you using?
Hi can you give me some tips I'm about to make a great white shark and have never done this before so any help gratefully received
What sort of help are you after? ☺️
Can I use coco pops instead?
