I’m from Chile and I took this class with Sally on October 2023. It was an amazing experience!! This video brings back so many memories ❤ we had a great time and learned a lot

[@mindfulbaking]

Thanks so much. I hope you are really well x

[@CupcakeJemma]

Glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

[@doffmeyer8819]

Oh Sally -- this video made me so nostalgic for your class! That experience (April 2023) was a real highlight of our trip. Hope to take another one of your classes next time we venture across the pond. And for those of you thinking about it, Sally's classes are SO worth it. It's an experience you'll carry with you for a long, long time. 😘

[@mindfulbaking]

Hey Doff! Thank you so much. I really hope to see you again soon :) hope you are really well x

I took this class last year when I was visiting from Los Angeles, and not only did I have the best time with the best teacher and best classmates, but I've also taken away valuable tips and tricks that have helped me ace my cake decorating since! I love the batch baking tips in this video too, hope I can come take a class again soon! 🥰🎂

[@mindfulbaking]

This is still the loudest and most joyful class to date. It was a total pleasure to meet you and I hope you get to come back soon too! X

I love the confidence when you crack those eggs! One day I hope to make it to London and visit C&D. How awesome would it be to take a class! Beautiful cakes!😊 How long does Swiss Meringue Buttercream keep for?

[@CupcakeJemma]

We'd love to have you in a class! We keep it for 5 days in an airtight container, whip it up again when you're ready to use it!

[@mindfulbaking]

hahah thanks xx

[@lizie1110]

Do you guys not have big commercial size mixers? Or do you just prefer not to use them for things like this?

[@deborahhallam7717]

Oh wow Sally. What great organisation. 🥇🏆You work like clock work ⏱⏲and so hard. Cakes 🎂look divine. Quick question! For SMB do you always use large fresh egg whites 🥚🥚or have you ever used egg whites from a carton? If so are carton ones a good sub to fresh egg whites or don’t they whip up as well?

[@hengwin]

If you look at the video again, she did use egg whites from a carton here. Also Dane had a video on "faux meringue" using carton eggs a while back.

[@deborahhallam7717]

Many thanks for reply. Hadn’t picked up watching first time but was doing two things at once! I’ll also check out Dane’s video. Thank you again. 👍

[@mindfulbaking]

Yes definitely cartoned 😊

@@CupcakeJemma OMG you're the GOAT!! I have veganized most of your cookies and they are the best we've ever had! My husband particularly loved the oatmeal raisin! Can't wait for pumpkin! Thanks Jemma!!

[@mhill2813]

I noticed that Sally used carton egg whites. I always thought one had to use fresh egg whites for Swiss and Italian Buttercream. Has anyone out there used carton egg whites in their buttercream with success?

[@CupcakeJemma]

We've used carton egg whites for both types of buttercream and it works a treat! 👌🏼

[@mhill2813]

@@CupcakeJemma thank you for your response. This Canadian baker will be using carton egg whites for her next Swiss meringue buttercream. Love your channel and your cookbook which my son got for me at your bakery before it was available in Canada. He was in London for work and stopped by for a cookbook and a NY cookie.

[@carolschneider1404]

Does anyone else weigh and measure precisely and never get good batch making? Anytime I increase a recipe the recipe is never as good. 😢

[@katespalding2134]

Yep! Grrrrr

[@Gracevictoria__]

Noo, it’s always good. Check your baking powder and baking soda

[@gigigelvosa5023]

Weighing the ingredients is more precise and usually has consistent result if you have a good recipe
