      What a fun thing to do! When I was a kid, my grandmother would get some of these and we would share them. Now that I have grandchildren of my own, I would never buy the actual product because of all the toxic ingredients. It just did not occur to me to make them myself. Now if we get the chance, we can have a fun day of baking with wholesome ingredients and have the yum as well. Thanks!

    😂 my dad was the icing man at Hostess Cake in San Francisco from the early 1930's to early Sixties. He always told the tour groups that the Curly Q on top was made by the mixer winding up the icing 😂😂😂 His boss was never happy about that. He brought home seconds for us everyday. Cupcakes, snowballs, twinkies and fruit pies.

    Becky, as a former bakery owner I am thrilled to share with you the recipe I used for non sticking for my cakes, cupcakes, etc.. It stores in the fridge for a very long time. I kept mine in a quart jar in the fridge door. Btw, I was given the recipe by a Wilton Cake Instructor back in the 80's. Before that I used Baker's Joy nonstick spray.
    Recipe as follows:
    1c oil
    1c Crisco Shortening
    1c all purpose flour
    Mix well and brush onto your baking pans with a good coat before adding the batter.
    Your baked goodies will come out perfect every time.

    Hey Becky, here’s a handy little tip - when you want to have a filling in a cupcake wait for them to cool and then use an apple corer to take out the centre of the cupcake (don’t push the corer to the bottom of the cupcake or the filling will spill out). You’re then left with the perfect size hole for the filling. If you want a neat finish on the top keep the hole you cut out and cut a little off the length then pop the hole back on top of the cupcake - ta da surprise filling and a neat cupcake top to frost on to. Also if you want a specific nozzle with which to fill a homemade Twinkie buy a donut nozzle which has a longer spout that you can pipe from each end of the Twinkie.

    Hi Becky! You can make pan release that is shelf stable for 6 months or refrigerated one year. It replaces bakers joy and does not leave flour on the edges of your baked goods. 1 cup each Crisco,All purpose flour and vegetable oil. Use only vegetable oil no sub. Blend together with stick blender and brush your pan liberally! Baked goods come out clean every time. This is what the bakery uses. Love your videos!

    Piping tip: don't push all the icing (or whatever you're piping) to the tip, smoosh about a 1/3 of it to the tip; leave the rest on top, so you'll have a small ball in your hand & a big one on top of your hand, this will also help keep the bag from breaking at the seams. Also the big white plastic part goes in the bag, the metal tip and ring on the outside so you can change out the tips if, needed. It was great seeing you have so much fun!

      Also, when having all the icing in the bag with your hands on it will warm the icing, causing it to melt before you pipe it out. Though that might not always be an issue depending on what you are piping, I guess.

Keep pushing yourself to do better. You are truly an inspiration to us all. To be so young and have accomplished so much. Amazing!!!!

    When you do the decoration on top, allow the cream to fall out of the tip with just a slight amount of pressure from your hand. When you press too hard with your hand, the icing comes out and wrinkles. So make sure your icing will flow enough that you can follow the pattern around cleanly and smoothly. Practicing on the parchment paper would also help. They look delicious.

    This is a fun idea. I enjoy your channel.
    Our local Latino market’s bakery makes the cupcakes called Penguinos. Delicious. Apparently the curlicue top is difficult to do. A new baker can’t master it so they’ve eliminated the Penguino from their menu. 😢
    You might find it easier to fold ingredients if you use a slightly bigger rubber spatula. With easy Amazon shopping a lot of us ordered smaller spatulas than we realized. 😅

    Becky it’s always good to add a little bit at a time of your flour mixture. You could lose some of your leveling agents when you add all at once & it poofs out of your mixer. Which could result in a faulty baked item. Good job on everything😊

    4:37 For anyone thinking about getting a Bosch mixer, we got one a few months ago and its great! Having the mixing arm low and in the center makes it super stable for kneading.
    I highly recommend upgrading to the stainless bowl, mine stays on the countertop and I personally think it looks better and more subtle than the white plastic. It also holds warmth well for rising dough and I feel much better having my foods mixed in a metal bowl (the center mixer and some of the attachments are plastic but that wasnt a deal breaker for me)
    We eat a lot more pizza, tortillas and sandwich bread now that I make them regularly 🤩

    Hi Becky! What great recreations of these classics!! A tip with the piping for you: put the white piece in the bag, then put the metal tip on the outside of the bag before placing the screw top on. That way, if you're doing another project and you want to use the same icing with a different tip, you can just unscrew it, change the tip, and screw the new one into place! You wouldn't have to refill a whole new bag with the same icing just to change the tip! 🧁

      Homemade baking goop = equal parts of flour, oil & shortening. Mix well and paint tins with pastry brush. Last approximate 9 months in refrigerator. If using for chocolate cake generously paint tins as chocolate cakes notoriously stick more than other cakes.
      Or use chocolate goop for chocolate cake = 1 Tbsp cocoa, 2 Tbsp oil & 2 Tbsp shortening and mix well. Paint tins with pastry brush.

      I loved Banana Flips as a kid! A few months ago, I ran across a channel called Little Village Homestead where this lady made whoopie pies using cake mix. I found Dolly Parton’s banana cake mix, and used that. There were a few other ingredients too. I made these, and they came out tasting so good that I will never buy a store bought Banana Flip ever again! You can make other flavors too - I did strawberry, and they were also very tasty, but my favorite flavor is the banana!
