I thought about putting this mousseline inside an Easter egg. I'm looking for a toothpaste-like texture. Any recommendations? Can bicarbonate or cornstarch help?

How do you dye your modeling chocolate

@lifeloveandprogress Жыл бұрын

A lot of times, I start with colored candy melts, such as Wilton, then I mix gel food coloring in with my corn syrup before adding to melted chocolate/candy melts. I hope that answers your question sufficiently.

This could be a long shot, but how does this affect the cutting of the cake? Does it smash the cake or is it fine? And is it pleasurable enough to eat?

@lifeloveandprogress 2 жыл бұрын

The cake cuts just fine, no smashing at all. 😊 And modeling chocolate is very pleasurable to eat, much preferred over fondant! It tastes kind of like tootsie rolls. Hope that helps!

Good video. Question: if I panel a cake with modeling chocolate, would I be able to do a decorative quilt pattern on it ? Will it harden to quickly?

@lifeloveandprogress 2 жыл бұрын

It would be difficult to get the same billowy effect that you'd get with fondant. However, depending on the technique you use to achieve the pattern, you could still pull it off. Modeling chocolate covered cakes at room temperature can still be manipulated by scoring with certain tools like a dresden tool.

@lifeloveandprogress 2 жыл бұрын

My pleasure! I'd love to hear how it turns out for you! As for the white modeling chocolate, I use Wilton Bright White candy melts. Sometimes I add white food color gel if I want it ultra white.

Can we place the modelled figure on cake and refrigerate it???

@lifeloveandprogress 2 жыл бұрын

I put my modeling chocolate covered cakes in the fridge frequently. You just need to let it fully come to room temperature before messing with it. It will have condensation droplets on it, but that will go away if you let it sit long enough. I hope that helps!

I think the figures should be just fine. Unless you've painted them with edible paint, then the condensation could possibly cause the paint to bleed or run. That would be my only concern.

One of the most beautiful women in the world to me is Julia Stiles. You remind me of her and...you are adorable to watch. I just did my very first fondant cake yesterday using the paneling technique. I did pretty good but that seam meeting together and cutting it...I didn't too much care for that. However, it was my first time. I think I'm going to try your 'overlap' method as it still looked flawless Ms. Pamela. I'm also going to try your Chocolate icing recipe. Have a blessed day.

@lifeloveandprogress 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for your sweet words! I used to get told all the time that I looked like Julia Stiles, but that was when I was much younger. You made my day. 🥰 I use both methods of paneling, just depends on how sturdy my icing underneath is. As long as you're happy with the results, there's no right or wrong way.😊 Please let me know what you think of my chocolate icing! I hope you love it as much as I do! Have a wonderful & blessed day and thank you for commenting!

Is vodka a must? I'm not a baker or decorator I only do it on occasions. And on the videos I've seen I've noticed vodka is used for painting cakes or for decoration in fondant etc.... does it leave an alcohol aftertaste?

@kalyaniborse4738 3 жыл бұрын

Alcohol gets evaporated quickly...especially clear vodka...so there will be no aftertaste...there is Evaporex in the market as a substitute for vodka...but again it's a type of alcohol...some people use lemon juice as a substitute for vodka but it spoils the taste of cake...

@lifeloveandprogress 3 жыл бұрын

As Kalyani stated, vodka evaporates very quickly and is fairly inexpensive, so it makes the perfect medium for painting on cakes and it doesn't leave an aftertaste.

You can use clear extract the vanilla kind just make sure it’s clear you can use any extract actually just make sure it’s clear And if it’s not vanilla vanilla make sure it’s something you don’t want your cake taste like but I prefer using clear vanilla extract or you can just buy piping gel as well

It depends on the kind of buttercream you use. If it's a crusting buttercream, it would likely be okay, but the moisture from some buttercreams might make it gummy. I would do a test run with your recipe just to be safe.
