    Great video! Thank you! What I’m not sure about is, when I bake my cakes, even though I measure the weight of the batter in each do that it is equal, the cakes don’t seem to be the same size. So, when I stack them, I can’t get a super straight tall cake on the edges. How do you deal with that?

    • @KarolynsKakes

    • @KarolynsKakes
      @KarolynsKakes  2 роки тому

      Mix the fondant with Tylose, it will help it hold its shape. Roll out the fondant. Cut into strips and let the strips sit for a few hours so the strips will hold their shape. Then put onto the cake, adhering with some icing or piping gel on the back. I hope that made sense!

    does this stacking of boards + foil work out to be cheaper than just buying an already made cake drum?

    • @KarolynsKakes
      @KarolynsKakes  2 роки тому +2

      It's cheaper now that everything costs more! LOL
      Depending on the size of the drums, it can be less than half the price to make it!
      I just wish I could find good gold foil though. I can only make silver.

    With having to buy the boards foil and tape do you find it much cheaper than buying an already covered board?

    • @KarolynsKakes
      @KarolynsKakes  5 місяців тому

      I buy the boards in bulk and get a big roll of foil at a restaurant store. It costs money to initially buy the supplies, but it's a lot cheaper.
      1 box of 10" rounds has 250 circles in it. It costs around $30. A roll of foil is around $18. A roll of tape is approx. $7. That's $55 total.
      I can make 60-70 boards with that.
      On Amazon, a 12 pack of 10" round 1/2" thick cake drums is $29.
      So it's definitely cost effective in the long run!

      No one ever complained, the tape is on the very bottom of the board and never touches the actual cake!
      And I make the silver ones. But if I want to use black, white or gold boards, I buy them from Amazon!

    • @KarolynsKakes
      @KarolynsKakes  3 роки тому +2

      Yes you can, you just have to make sure that the foil is food safe. If it isn't, make sure there is a barrier (like a cake circle) between the cake and the cake board.

  • @mapulahaidymashaba217

    After covering the board with foil it's necessary to cover it again with fondant .

    A cake chef in Australia with 55+ yrs experience covers his boards with tinfoil. On some of his others he uses fabric. However there's a thin barrier of cellophane paper between the actual cake & foil or fabric which he cuts to the shape of the cake.
    Please also remember Karolyn always has a cardboard base directly under each cake tier that is not seen. This is what's touching the tinfoil. Luckily here in New Zealand & Australia we don't have a stupid tinfoil rule, or a rush of people eating it.

    • @KarolynsKakes
      @KarolynsKakes  3 місяці тому

      Aluminum foil is food safe (in the US) so it's okay if the cake touches it here!

    Where I live it's illegal to use tinfoil (any kind) under cakes and other food products. It's because when the cake is cut you may also cut the tinfoil, making a shard, which someone could ingest, which can cause serious damage to their digestive tract. They make food safe foil wrap that won't shred. Your cakes are beautiful but your boards look horrible, please switch to food safe board wrap, the price difference is not worth risking harm to someone, plus it looks better.
