EASY SUGAR SHEET TECHNIQUE │ CAKE DECORATING │ CAKES BY MK

[@Mahamatics]

To avoid the sugar sheet from wilting, add half a spoon of Tylose (CMC) powder. ALSO, if you don’t have Glucose syrup, you can use Corn syrup.

[@Israt_505]

Thanks

[@jinahsace5371]

Thank you

[@latoyathompson7940]

Is the corn syrup usually the same amount?

[@ericabelcher8760]

Im sorry for asking a silly question, but how do you apply the corn syrup?

[@jasminebenson7759]

Thanks

[@allergictohumansnotanimals5671]

The gold edges really make a difference

[@CakesbyMK]

Yeah it really makes it pop! :)

[@tainadelcaribe]

I like the “peachy” look that “magically” appears as you put the sugar sheet up wrapped around the cake because of the off white color of the cake plus the gold foil bottom reflecting against the sugar! So pretty!

[@CakesbyMK]

Same! Thank you so much :)

[@perfectlyimperfect2291]

The thing that make it a great sugar sheet cake is that GOLDEN PAINT.

[@orleansartist6095]

I really like the color of the sugar sheet. It is peachy and glowing, and the gold really brings it out.

[@joelbailey176]

I think I’ll try this for a Christmas cake, with (very light) blue colouring instead of pink for a cold look.

[@CakesbyMK]

That sounds very cool! Good luck with it :)

[@CakesbyMK]

UPDATE: Hey everyone! If you're looking for a stronger sugar sheet that can withstand humid weather for longer, then check out my updated recipe/video for the sugar sheet technique here: cakesbymk.com/recipe/sugar-sheet-technique/ Thanks again for all the support and hope you enjoy this new sugar sheet recipe! :)

[@rukizee3739]

We can't use gelatin?

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there! :) Do you mean gelatin in the sugar sheet? I've never tried this before so I'm not too sure sorry!

[@ivyjiang5]

after decorating the cake with the sugar sheet can you keep it in the fridge ? Or how should it be stored if for a customer

[@CakesbyMK]

@@ivyjiang5 Hi there! :) refrain from putting this sugar sheet in the fridge, as the humidity in the fridge will cause it to become soft. The best thing would be to place it on your cake after the cake has been chilled, and close to when your customer is collecting the cake so then you won't need to place the cake back in the fridge after applying the sugar sheet. Hope that helps!

[@CakesbyMK]

@Hasna Hena Lata Hi there! :) I don't think whipped cream will work so well as whipped cream releases a lot of moisture. You could try my updated recipe with it that is a stronger sugar sheet and this may hold up okay but I haven't tried it myself sorry! Here is the link to the updated recipe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnKodp6pZ6h6grs

[@jaspreetkaur114]

This is an awesome tutorial!! And I love how dramatic your background music is- it honestly works with how intensely nervous I'd feel if I was picking up a sugar sheet to decorate 😂

[@CakesbyMK]

Thanks Jaspreet! And hahaha I'm glad that intense feeling came through because I was feeling that nervous as I picked it up! 😂

[@CakesbyMK]

@@adesanyatoluwalope6659 good luck I'm sure you'll do great! :)

[@aromaofzanzibar]

Thats really awesome tutorial, how long can the sugar sheet stay before it dries. If I dont want to keep in the oven how long can I keep it out to dry.

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there! Thank you so much :) Do you mean before you can wrap it around the cake?? After its been placed in the oven it will take about 30 mins or so to cool down before you can wrap it around the cake :). If you mean before it starts wilting after you've already wrapped it around the cake, then it really depends on the weather but even in humid weather it should stay up for atleast 5+ hours :) If you'd like to let it dry on its own without placing it in the oven, then leave it for about 4 hours, then check it and if it needs longer then keep checking it ever hour (you don't want to leave it for too long otherwise it may become too stiff to wrap around the cake). Hope that helps! :)

[@khouloudbouanani4772]

Is the glucose is corn syrup ?

[@nishadaziz7333]

Hi ,love the tutorial but I tried to make the sugar sheet took it out of the oven let it cool after applying it to the cake and it failed ,it all crumbled up back into the sandy texture after drying please advise me what Im doing wrong .thanks

[@tutwochengtv6768]

Check video again on 5:15 to 5:19 mins for avoiding crumbling/breaking. I think you may not have put enough glucose or maybe under dried timewise 🤷‍♀️

[@chelseaw830]

I love how detailed your videos are!! you're an amazing teacher!

[@CakesbyMK]

Thanks so much Chelsea! :)

[@orleansartist6095]

I have been looking for years for a cake my grandma used to make. She would dice apples, about a cup of them. She added sugar and let it brown on purpose in a bowl for a little while. She made the cake with some vanilla, a little cinnamon and shredded coconut, and walnuts. It was a brownish batter because of the apples and cinnamon and vanilla. After the cake was made, she made praline, and poured it over the cake. It sealed it and created a very moist cake. It is quite delicious. I can not find it anywhere. It could be German origin. Searching for it, I can only find ways to keep apples from browning. But praline icing on any cake is excellent. I would love to see you try a version of this.

[@CakesbyMK]

Wow this sounds delicious! Do you have any description/pictures of what the final product looks like? Would be very interesting to try :)

[@loki8061]

@@CakesbyMK Thank you so very much for your kind words about my mom. Yes she was amazing. She made wedding cakes - including mine - and was great at doing all sorts of baking at really low costs. We were poor so she had to improvise but that was good as it taught me how to do the same. I think I might try this sugar sheet this weekend. Btw the color you choose was gorgeous 😍 Quick question- if you wanted to eat pieces of the sugar sheet, could you?

[@CakesbyMK]

@@loki8061 she sounds like an incredibly strong and inspirational woman! There's something special in being able to improvise with what you have :). In terms of eating the sugar sheet, yes you can - though it's basically just sugar so I'm not quite sure how pleasant it will be to eat!

After I apply the sugar sheet to the cake, How long will it last on the cake? Will it begin to break down?

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there :). It really depends on the humidity levels. In colder places it will last longer, but it should stay up for at least a few hours. The parts where the sugar sheet is touching the cake will stay together, however any of the sheet that is above the cake will start to wilt and break off. I am working on a new recipe which will hopefully get rid of the wilting problem so lets see how it goes! :)

[@keertikashyap2494]

Can we freeze the cAke to prevent sugar sheet from breaking down?

[@CakesbyMK]

@@keertikashyap2494 Hmm this may help initially but as the buttercream begins to soften it will have the same effect :)

Wonderful video can use this sugar sheet for fresh cream cake

Thank you! :) It is best to use the sugar sheet on a buttercream, as whipped cream is quite soft and the moisture will cause the sugar sheet to wilt. Alternatively, you can try my updated sugar sheet recipe which is stronger (link is in the description box) and this may hold up better with a whipped cream cake :)
