[@mml3147]

Your way was so much easier to go with. Do you have to let the cakes cool down before cutting it?? Beautiful tutorial.

[@heyrachele]

Thank you! 💕 yes I do let it cool down for a bit…although I get too excited and cut it too early 😂

[@kkb892]

Happy Birthday! I am turning 26 too so this Is perfect haha!

[@heyrachele]

ooooh, happy early birthday! hope it turns out great :)

[@valmalove]

TYSM so your video as it's helpful so I can make one for my daughter's bday. Happy belated birthday! Question where did you can the pipe squeegee from? Or what's it called?

[@heyrachele]

Thank you! 💗 I had these mini icing bottles forever from a craft show! Here's a similar item: www.amazon.com/Prepworks-Progressive-decoraci%C3%B3n-bombillas-unidades/dp/B00KWCT2X2/

Beautiful ☺️👍🏻

[@alexpizarro2384]

This is SO helpful! One question though - how much mayo do you put in your cake mix? 😍🥰 Chicago gal over here and our famous Portillos cake has mayo so I’m all for it!!!!

[@heyrachele]

Thank you!! Yes, mayo is a game changer. 😍I substitute it a little less than the oil measurement the box calls for! You can also a box of vanilla pudding mix if your cake to be super moist. 😋

[@trinayu9632]

Hey! Did you use one box of cake mix and divide it into two pans or 2 cake mixes?

[@heyrachele]

Trina Yu hiii! Yes I split one cake box into two pans! 😋 🍰

[@imaniemmm9635]

[@PhuongPhan-mx1qx]

Hey, where did u buy a mini piping bag?? That one’s convenient. I really need it.

[@heyrachele]

Hi! This exact piping bag I got from a local craft show years ago and I never could find them again! Haha. But here's a very similar one: www.amazon.com/Prepworks-Progressive-decoraci%C3%B3n-bombillas-unidades/dp/B00KWCT2X2/

[@elizabethcontreras7938]

How much would you charge for that cake ?? Soo beautiful. by the way love it👌👌👌

[@heyrachele]

thank you!! haha, i would totally make this cake for free because it's so fun! 😜

[@erica2696]

Love this! Jesus saves❤

[@lorenaclaire9790]

Can i add more batter on the pan and cut it in half? So that i can make two layers?♥️

[@heyrachele]

Claire A yes you can definitely do that! and you can even sandwich some berries in between 😋

[@lorenaclaire9790]

Rachel Estrada thank you! I will follow your video for my birthday cake too♥️

[@lorenaclaire9790]

Rachel Estrada but which is a better base? Is it the cookie base or the chiffon base?

[@dess2703]

How long did you freeze the cakes for till you cut them?

[@heyrachele]

Hi desiree! I actually did not freeze these cakes, I just let them cool down for 30min-1hr.

[@ghieymadera1816]

Superlike it madam 🥰

[@JL-ki3uw]

May I know how many grams is the cake mix

[@JL-ki3uw]

Or how many grams was used for the whole thing?

[@sanag1050]

How do i get that size of alphabet template? Please let me know

[@heyrachele]

Hi! I actually just printed out my numbers from Word Doc in a very large font then used it as a stencil to trace it out!

[@ellona3645]

Today is my 22nd birthday and I'm making my own quarantine birthday cake 😄😂

[@heyrachele]

happy birthday!!! hope it turned out great 😍😊🎂

[@AceHardy]

🎉🎂🎈

[@ms.cuervo2924]

omg where is that mini piping bag from 😭

[@heyrachele]

I've had those piping bags since forever! But here's a similar one: www.amazon.com/Prepworks-Progressive-decoraci%C3%B3n-bombillas-unidades/dp/B00KWCT2X2/

[@msnorthern2341]

What size is the template plz?

[@heyrachele]

I made my numbers less than 8 inches so that they could fit into my 8 inch pans!

[@ddannyboo]

Hi!! What size are the pans you used?

[@heyrachele]

Hi Danielle! I used two 9inch round baking pans and placed the cakes on a large cookie sheet. You can always resize your numbers to fit whatever pans you have. :)

[@southerngirlchef5886]

Nooooo, beautiful cake, but don’t use water to make a box cake taste more homemade, add 1 cup of buttermilk and a extra egg..

[@heyrachele]

Ooooh, never tried buttermilk before! Thanks for the tip!

[@southerngirlchef5886]

@@heyrachele your welcome. You’ll love it.

[@jerymarschmid6176]

It would be better if you don't have your hair so close to the cake, imagine having hair all over your food 🤮🤢

[@heyrachele]

Jerymar Schmid With hair this long, my hair is bound to get everywhere, haha! Good thing none got on the cake though!
