Do you enjoy my tutorials? I'd be so grateful if you could Buy Me A Coffee! www.buymeacoffee.com/KarolynsKakes

[@lw6920]

I don't need to make a baseball hat, but I feel like you give really good tips and tricks that I could use in the future for other stuff. You also make things very clear. You're a really good teacher. Thank you🙂

[@KarolynsKakes]

Awesome! Thank you! I'm glad I'm able to help you 😊

[@eralo8161]

She is a really good teacher ❤

[@marlettamcclain1950]

I appreciate the depth of your explanations on this hat. It helps us learn what to do and why. Very cool cake.

[@mkp8942]

Yes ! Karolyn explains it perfectly. I made a cap for my grandson’s birthday cake and it came out perfect

[@marciamitchell5985]

Wow!!!!!!Your work of art is FANTASTIC !!!!!Thank you for sharing .

[@mariswanson3428]

I appreciate you going through the details of making this cake. And your brim method is not weird! It makes sense. Thanks for your videos!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you!! Sometimes I second guess myself, but all that matters is that it works, right? LOL

[@babigurlgapeach]

I just love your longer videos! Your work is so clean. Tfs

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you love!

[@donnaraney631]

Thanks for your cake tutorials- so wonderful for beginners. You do excellent on walking us then the details in layman’s terms! 😀

[@KarolynsKakes]

You're welcome Donna! Glad you like them! 😊🙏

[@terrymangnall7139]

Love your videos. You've taught me so much! As a seamstress, I think I can help you with the hat. The top of the hat is a button. The 6 holes are called eyelets. These eyelet holes allow hot air to escape from the top of the hat. Hope that helps you. You have helped me so much!!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you for that, I had no idea! And I'm so glad I'm able to help you! 😊💜🙏

[@720Fab]

Thanks for the easy to understand video! Philly girl living in a Seattle world so two hats up!❤️

[@KarolynsKakes]

Big question is are you still an Eagles fan or did you switch to the Seahawks?! LOL

[@mariecabaneshucamis]

[@paulinedooling742]

[@carolmatthews7886]

This was awesome Kayla! I will be making a Wedding Cake for a friend of mine from our Church for December 10th. This will be my first Wedding cake to make. Iam a little nervous, but have been practicing from your instructions. Thank u so much for sharing all of your cakes! It was very informative!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Awwww you're welcome Carol! You got this! 🙌

[@karenhodges4933]

Omg!! I looove this!!!

[@mecheleclasson]

I have watched most of your videos and they have been very helpful, thank you. I didn't understand why you would say minecraft cakes drove you crazy, as they look so simple until I started cutting and smoothing tiny fondant squares for cakesicles.. NOW I UNDERSTAND!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes! Anything with tons of tiny details will drive you insane!!

[@louiselemon9717]

This was very interesting to watch. I love it!

Thank you Kelley! 🥰🥰

[@sweetmimisestscha]

Beautiful!!!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you!

[@OurCrazyCrew]

You are amazing! Thank you so much for this! You’re a great teacher! How much would you charge for a cake like this?

[@lolomaqbool]

You are so talented, love all your videos 💗

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you so much, glad you like them! 😊

[@marlettamcclain1950]

When you remove the excess fondant can it then be used for something else? Since it has Tylose in it can it be re-softened once it hardens. Hope that made sense.

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes! I reuse it all the time. I pop it in the microwave to soften it up again. There does come a point where it gets really hard (dries like a rock and doesn’t really get soft in the microwave). At that point, I throw it away.

[@CancelaGarcia]

I love your tutorials thank you so much 💗

[@KarolynsKakes]

You're welcome Carmen! I'm glad you like them!

[@MultiGemgirl]

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thhhhhhankkkk youuu! LOL!

[@mariahutter7081]

What an amazing cake👍💕

[@KarolynsKakes]

You're so sweet, I appreciate the love!

[@mitzieklozotsky5092]

Very helpful tutorial! Thank you so much! I often use acetate paper to smooth buttercream on rounded cakes. I'm curious to try the method you taught here. Thanks again!

[@KarolynsKakes]

This way is so fast and easy!

[@lorrainehicks9172]

That was so awesome to watch. I gained so much interesting information. Looks just like a real hat. Can't believe it's made of cake. When you bake the semi - circle cake do you use the adapter in the oven? The whole cake is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜

[@KarolynsKakes]

By the adapter, do you mean the ring underneath to prevent it from shifting? If so, then yes! I put that in the oven and set the sphere pan on top of it.

[@lorrainehicks9172]

Thank you for replying 💜

[@delfina8477]

Wow! Perfect, perfect, perfect cake 👌🏼 Thank you for sharing, all your videos are amazing. How much was this cake?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you!! I don’t like to post specific prices just because prices can vary so much depending on skill level and what area you are in. I may be able to charge more than someone in a rural area can, but I would not be able to charge as much as someone in a major city. So there are too many variables for me to post a price.

[@rihannarihanna6589]

Thanks daling i really happy

[@destinydeanne849]

Thank you for this

[@KarolynsKakes]

I’m glad you liked it 🥰🥰

[@sarahgrullon3486]

This is so awesome! I remember you recently saying to only compare yourself to yourself so you can really see/appreciate your own progress and growth. I have to keep that in mind when I watch your videos bc you’re so good! 🤣❤️ I noticed that you always have a huge amount of icing when you ice your cakes. What’s your recipe for a big batch like that?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Awww thank you honey! I actually make a lot of white icing, so I do 3 batches of white and put it all into 1 bowl and whip the air out of it!

[@vidattaramnauth287]

I really like your videos

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you so much!

[@ODY0319]

I love the way you work it’s so clean and also well organized! I aspire to be like that. I was wondering do you have any tips on learning how to roll out fondant? Cause when I roll it out I think I have to go in to roll it out instead of being gentle

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you! Do you mean that it's difficult to roll out? Do you use marshmallow fondant?

[@delilahs1099]

How many servings do you think you can get out of the hat? And as usual I love all your videos. Thanks for explaining everything step by step.

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thanks girl! It feeds 10-12 😃

[@kw5354]

I love your videos and I appreciate you sharing to help others. Your work is so clean and beautiful!! Do you cover your own cake boards/drums? Or do you buy them? I tend to cover my own, making a thick board with 3 cake boards together but I'm wondering if there is another option that is affordable.

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you! I cover silver boards myself - kzbin.info/www/bejne/npWvgXl-rM2cppI

[@KarolynsKakes]

And I purchase black and gold ones on Amazon. Make sure you get the right diameter and that they are 1/2" thick, not 1/4"! amzn.to/39d0lg0

[@thezunafamily9139]

Thank u so much for sharing this

[@KarolynsKakes]

You're welcome!

[@victoriasmith2965]

Wait !!! I wanna know how you did the rest of the cake ! Mostly the rainbow colors name and number ! Was it airbrushed ?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes! Here's a video showing you how I do it kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKCkc35orKunbK8

[@debtink5756]

Hi Karolyn can I ask do you use a fan force over foe all your baking including cup cake I have tried fan force and no fan but my cakes just don’t look right. I a bit confused someone told me to use no fan for cupcake I’ve tried both and still not right dry frustrating. Thank in advance 💜from Australia

[@KarolynsKakes]

I assume you mean the convection oven fan, correct? If so, I don't use it when I make these cakes. I only use it when I make my pound cakes, which are only made in a bundt pan. Other than that, I don't like using the fan.

[@Sweetzandmore]

He is going to LOVE his cake. Do most clients give you free range with the designs?

[@KarolynsKakes]

For the most part, yes. But there are a lot of people who want certain aspects of certain cakes on their own cake, so I make sure I include what they want on there!

[@kathrynkiphart4539]

Could you do a tutorial on how you paint the 50 and word on cake and how do you paint your gold rope. Do you do it on the cake or off?

[@KarolynsKakes]

How I do the name: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKCkc35orKunbK8

[@KarolynsKakes]

How I make a gold chain: (Everything is made off the cake then added once dry) kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4LPl4WmZ7t-rbc

[@margesinclair451]

Do you store the pan grease in the refrigerator?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Nope! Just in an airtight container at room temperature.

[@mapulahaidymashaba217]

Can I substitute piping gel with water when covering cake with fondant

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes you can!

[@tx.moraless]

How did you get the large dowel rod through the cake boards with out the cake getting squished by the pressure?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I sharpen one end in a pencil sharpener only used for dowels (never used for lead pencils). Then I hammer it through and the sharp end pokes a hole through the cake circles and the cake drum!

[@denisebergen7532]

I thought the hat was a real hat, not cake! Would love to hear how you got to be so talented!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Awwww thanks girl! It’s just been years (almost 20) of practice. You improve and learn with every one you make! I appreciate you 🥰🥰

[@turleyite]

I love your videos. You are such a perfectionist. Your cakes are amazing. One thing I want to mention though, never feed birds or animals chocolate. It can be fatal.

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you! I'll make sure I don't give them anything chocolate

[@turleyite]

@@KarolynsKakes I just didn't want your viewers to throw it out for the birds.

[@siboniwedube3798]

Am learning thank you what is the ,name of the metal item u put in the cake

[@KarolynsKakes]

They are called heating core nails, here ya go! amzn.to/3pUNfcg

[@debramoore4949]

I hate black fondant. I tried and tried to work with black fondant and it just tears and falls apart on me. Love your work. Thank you!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you Debra! Watch my video on how to get smooth fondant. That should help!

[@debramoore4949]

@@KarolynsKakes thank you, I’m a new fan and subscriber. 👍🏻

[@mecheleclasson]

Karolyn could you not just have used the first piece of paper for the brim before cutting it down, instead of cutting the paper and then adding the piece back when you cut it out of fondant?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes, I believe I explained that in the video (I can't remember where). But there is a reason I do it that way and I don't remember my reasoning! LOL I think it's because the curve isn't right if I just keep it the original size. But it may work for you!

[@mecheleclasson]
