Great video. Could I ask where you purchased your paint brushes please?

[@putrihanania2317]

I love to see the way how you decorate your cake

[@BakingButterlyLove]

[@gzion7]

What kind of brush are you using?

[@Lolasbakes]

Thank you for sharing this helped me so much 🫶🏽

[@glamourandsugar1067]

Love the variety and tips thanks

[@syamo532]

Will the cake sweat while painting due to change of temperature?

[@BakingButterlyLove]

If you are in a hot environment, yes the cake will sweat. Chilling the cake before painting works best in moderate or cooler temperatures.

This was very plessant to watch ❤

Thanks for the tips! Great video!

[@lindatrella5689]

I loved this video and will check out all you have but one question...Where did you get the brush you used to paint with in this video?....thanks soo much

[@BakingButterlyLove]

They are just regular paint brushes from the craft store! I have a set that I only use for food. They don't have to be fancy, but avoid the really cheap ones as they tend to shed bristles.

Youre a genius thank u for this

[@tanshine17]

How do you wash your used utensils? I hate washing with food dyes

[@BakingButterlyLove]

Lots of hot soapy water 😂 Washing buttercream stuff is definitely the worst. I usually let everything soak in a big container of hot water for a few minutes and that gets most of the worst bits off before actually washing.

[@tanshine17]

[@CakesWithLorelie]

Really well done video. Love all your tips. xo

Thanks Lorelie!

[@sanghamitrachoudhury6038]

Hey , I really love those cake designs.

[@BakingButterlyLove]

Hi! Unfortunately it's not that hot where I live so I don't have too much experience with this kind of problem. I would try keeping the cake at room temp and only chilling it long enough to firm up the outside, that might help with the condensation. You can also try substituting a bit of vegetable shortening for some of the butter in your buttercream to help it hold up in the heat better.

[@sanghamitrachoudhury6038]

[@kittenmimi5326]

How come it stays up n even you didn't bother to even level the cake

[@savannahsuch7072]

Girl why didn’t you level your cakes before stacking them? 😭

[@BakingButterlyLove]

They're only little 4 inch cakes, I was just too lazy 😂

[@BuckWinthrop]

Use cake strips
