Great tutorial Gretchen. I did not know about the parchment paper. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Nell Dsouza awesome thanks for watching! :)
You never cease to amaze me dear!! It's always a treat watching your next creation!!! 😊
It's always good to drive a long dowel through all the layers to keep them from shifting during transport. I recommend it.

YES ANOTHER CAKE VIDEO!!!!
How soon do you need to start adding your crumb coat when taking the cake out the freezer?
I don't FREEZE as this causes too much condensation & will be a big problem for the icing. Just refrigerate, typically 30 min to 1 hour
@ oh! I'm so sorry I thought you mention its best to freeze your cakes its better for adding your butter cream and decorating. Ah!! So for any cakes when decorating should I still wrap and seal my cakes in the refrigerator and then start the process?
Oh I see, I thought you meant after crumb coating you would then freeze.
So, yes I freeze the cake layers for up to a month wrapped well then when
I build the cakes (layers straight from the freezer), & by the time the whole cake is filled & iced it is going to be almost completely thawed.
THEN i do crumb coating & only now refrigerate before the final icing
@@GretchensVeganBakery yes! Ah my life saver!!! Thank you 🥹🥹🥹💜💜💜🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Janet Cabrera that is the #21 ateco
+Gretchen's Bakery I asked on the beach cake but I found my answer here. Thanks.
Grentchen,I made the white cake ad swiss butter cream for wedding cake for my granddaughters weddinf,I did it in 2 days because of my energy level cause of MS ,the cake got really ,to keep dry.How do I store it after put together ,so it doesn't do this again?
+Jlane Hubbard always freeze your cake layers if you are not using them right away! Then take them out of the freeze just before building the cake
thank you,I'll do that
+Gretchen's Bakery
Does this mean before crumb coat or after?
Great tips. Thanks
can you do a 3 tiered using chiffon? Thanks Im a newbie 😊 your response will be such a blessing to me
Reese Quito I don't believe chiffon is strong enough. it's very light and airy.
ohh Just made mine a 3 tiered I made a yemacake on my fb cresty quito , thanks btw
Help please!! What size cake do you suggest i bake for a birthday party with about 60 guests? I know wedding slices are thinner otherwise i would use this recipe. How do i adjust the recipe for the bottom tier if i was baking it in an 11 inch tier? Please help. Thank you! Great job Gretchen!
+Alesha Rahman the entire recipe that normally makes 2-8" layers will make ONE 11" layer
Did you use 2" pans here, the cakes have a good height.
Great idea the certificate for the anniversary 6"
when stacking d top tier did u put that stick or dowel to the bottom tier or only to d base of third tier only
+Trupti Sarangi the bottom and middle tier
Hi Gretchen...I noticed in some videos in the past and here too that you say "freeze the cakes" but then you say "get them into the fridge fast". Should we put them in the freezer or refrigerator?
How can I find the beach wedding cake that you mentioned at the end of this video?? I couldn't find it. Have you uploaded it yet?
+Previously Angels www.gretchensbakery.com/how-to-make-a-beach-wedding-cake/
+Gretchen's Bakery thank you so much. your channel is a life saver.
Hi Gretch, first of all thanks so much for this video. I was waiting for it for so long!! Also please can you tell me, If the chocolate cakes you using here are your buttermilk chocolate cake recipe?
***** thanks and yes it is! Its the only one i use! LOL
Gretchen's Bakery Thank you so much!! love love love your recipes! :-) My kids really enjoyed the chocolate buttermilk cupcakes!!! :-)
You do not use a bigger central dowel in the middle??? Thanks for the lesson. Also, What is the worst thing that could happen if I do not use a parchment paper to separate each tier?
No I never used a center dowel that goes through the entire cake.
The worst thing that could happen when not using parchment paper is the cake board will have all that icing from teh cake below it stuck all over it, it literally rips the entire top icing off the cake when you try to remove the tiers
@@GretchensVeganBakery - great tip - thank you so much !!!
Good Morning. Few questions. I cooked and froze my cakes on Saturday. The wedding is this coming Saturday. I plan on working on the cake tomorrow (Friday). when is the best time to take them out of the freezer (the cakes have no filling)? Once I finish the cake, is it ok to put back into the freezer for the next day reception (the cakes are Itialian Cream -cream cheese filling, Red Velvet-buttercream filling, and Lemon cake with lemon curd)? The drive is 45 min and the weather is predicted to be 85 degrees and humid.
I take the cakes out just before I am ready to fill and ice. They thaw quickly and it is easier to work with cold/frozen cake.
Yes you will have to put the cake in the refrigerator for sure, overnight is best so great that you are working a day ahead.
Thank You
You are the best!!!!!
is that buttercream made with shortening? it looks very white
+Beth Funk yes www.gretchensbakery.com/swiss-buttercream-recipe/
thank you!
mam inches of tin fr 3tier cakes .for small family
Hi Gretchen
do you know where i could get an offset spatula like yours? i know yours came with your kit from CIA but I've been looking for a good sturdy offset spatula and haven't been able to find one anywhere
Mine is actually from Albert Uster Imports (about 20 years ago I bought it!) Its called Thermo Hauser
U helped me alot
You are awesome Gretchen! I love learning from you I have been for years. And the 2 bowel method....why didn't I think of that before? Genius! Lol. I have a question. I know all are different but about what temp do you recommend frig and freezer be at? I have a frig/freezer dedicated to my desserts but I struggle with finding the best temp. Thanks! By the way if you don't mind answering do you still have the same camera man? Lol :)
Lisa Serrano HI Lisa! When you said 2 bowel method- I thought you were referring to my past lives here on youtube LOLOLOLOLO haha Where's autocorrect when you need it!? Or is that what happened there!? ANywho- thanks for the laugh! I keep my freezer on the coldest setting (and yes mine is dedicated to desserts only also) I have NO cameraman now, I am working completely ALONE!~
Hai, I'm from Malaysia. I have a question, how you put fresh flowers on the cake?
what kind of icing did you used?
Gretchen, you should make a video telling us about some horror stories from when you owned the bakery (;
+whitelily5445 OMG You would have nightmares! LOL
Do it bwahahaha
can you covered this with fondant? hello from Philippines +gretchen's bakery
Helllllo Phillipines!! YES clickhere for more www.gretchensbakery.com/covering-cakes-with-fondant/
+Gretchen's Bakery thank you so much ! live ur works and being bubbly!😊
Hi Gretchen you are fabulous can u tell us wich cream u r using here
Please
Hi l am one of your subscribers what number tip is that the you fill in each cake on the end
I use Ateco brands so the # is #10
hi gretchen. great tutorial as always. btw is the centre dowel that connects the whole 3 tiers is necessary? coz i don't see you're doing it here
+Mahaki Kitchen hi Thanks, I never use that kind of doweling system
I have a question regarding pricing cakes: how do you price cakes that contains fruits/vegetables? Or any food item that's price is changing from time to time. Do you set a base price or something?
+Austin Dayacap that's a huge question and one that I can't answer in a youtube comment- noted for a blog post though! Thanks!
Gretchen's Bakery Looking forward to that blog post! Thanks :D
Can i cake my cake and ice and decorate on a Friday, and keep cool to cut and serve Saturday?
yes! It is almost imperative! (keep in the fridge though)
Can you tell me what size tiers is this cake ? Great tutorial !
thanks! all the info is in the written blog post, click the link below the video
👍 tq for this video, really helpful...×××
Great! thanks for watching!
Does the second tier Dowell go all the way into the bottom layer??
Sheena Gomes no each tier has a cardboard under the cake so the dowels only go as far as teh height of the cake
If you're decorating the morning of the wedding will the cakes thaw by that evening? Will they sweat?
the cakes are thawed by the time you crumb ice and put the final ice on, never had any sweating problems
is the crumb coat icing the same as the second coat of final
icing?
yes, just keep them separate so you dont get crumbs in the final
alright : ) thanks
Gretchen how is this so much whiter than your normal buttercream recipe? Do you made it with shortening only when you want it to be super white? My Swiss buttercream always has a bit of a off white color like yours does in your recipe video. Thanks for any info :) Love you and all of your amazing videos.
She mixes it on medium speed to incorporate more air therefor turning the butter cream a more white color. So, after baking just use your paddle attachment or hand beater and whip it :)
Can you please show the right way to cut a wedding cake.
Amy Borne Yes it would have been a great idea!
I know that the cake pans are round. I meant that they are so straight and even. how do you get them like that?
+Teneta Robertson Oh, LOL ! Well, I hope that the tutorial here on how I build my cakes is a helpful visual for you.
Great !
Do you have a recipe for homemade fondant?
+Callie Kornowski No I dont! sorry!
Which frosting recipe of yours would be this one
Kalicfit www.gretchensveganbakery.com/aquafaba-swiss-buttercream-recipe/
where do you suggest I get dowels?
I get mine at Michael's Crafts (or online, amazon)
