DOMESTIC GODDESS BAKES A TRES LECHES CAKE

[@rosethomas8504]

Hi James, some tips from a pastry chef, when you add cocoa to a recipe subtract the amount from the flour so that it doesn’t get too thick. So for example if you add 1 tablespoon of cocoa subtract 1 tablespoon from the amount of flour. Also when you fold egg whites into a dish start by adding a 1/3 of the egg whites in and you can mix these in gently but thoroughly and that will loosen the mix and make the gentle folding in of the rest of the egg white easier. Love you! 😙

[@danielm5535]

Glad you used the Mexican Blend vanilla- Mexico is the birthplace of vanilla; where the Totonac people (eastern coast near Veracruz) knew how to ferment the seed pods.

[@RaieG]

Nowadays, highly industrialized places often still sift flour for aeration. But in some parts of the world and in the past, flour is still sifted to filter out clumps of unrefined flour, rocks, wheat stalk , or any other detritus from the processing facility

[@PattonScr]

Sifting separates flour particles and makes the cake fluffy :) No sifting = dense cake

[@arasharfa]

no it just eliminates lumps. the overmixing to rid those lumps is what makes the cake dense.

[@lalanajdek1124]

We need a James and trixie bake off!!!

[@dariosilvestri473]

Absolutely yes

[@samwheat2480]

That would be beyond epic

[@longarmingbyjaclyn]

I was thinking a baking together video. OR- best yet they cook and host Thanksgiving dinner for their friendgirls!

[@mantronixtube]

the makeup just keeps getting prettier and prettier ....

[@Politoed]

I use Nesquick when I make Strawberry Milkshake flavour cupcakes, so yes it totally works! In both the batter and the buttercream.

[@shawnalynn5198]

Ooooh that sounds really good!

[@lorabrock]

Jaymes, love the lewk! The crown with that hair is perfect!

[@ImDr.Daniel]

I'm glad you liked my analogy, Jaymes. Thanks for mentioning me!

[@lorabrock]

Ernie, you are killing it with the editing!

[@ellieisanerd]

So much fun watching you tackle this alone. And I love that you got to steal all the tips and tricks from the video on Ernie's channel.

[@fenzirulfr]

The rant to the people asking you if you're Mexican...killed me. Jaymes, you're so funny :')

[@mikeyfrederick1232]

Just want to say you are genuinely funny and just a joy to watch mam.. The energy and positive vibes you put out into the universe is definitely what's needed nowadays..you deserve some major credit for your channel..sending love from VA..

[@Sandra-RC9Gx7]

Yay! Let the good times roll with our Queen of the kitchen!! Loving all the humor.😂 Jaymes you look stunning. That tiara is everything. You rocked it mama. Much love to you and Ernie!!❤️ Future sweets could be a pineapple upside down cake. Or maybe a tart lemon meringue pie.

[@Tardisntimbits]

From what I understand, sifting the powdered ingredients helps to eliminate lumps, and the act of sifting makes them lighter and airier, which makes them easier to mix.

[@richiethev4623]

To make it more airier & lighter aside from sifting ya need to add more air to your eggs by whipping as much air into them but over doing it…

[@robertstearns9621]

Hey Jaymes. I loved this video. While watching you mixing the batter, I got Eva Gabor "Green Acres" vibes, then thought, you haven't done a Gabor tutorial as part of your Iconic Blondes series. I think that you've done Gabor-esque looks but no tutorial. I'd love to see your take on Eva Gabor, her sister Zsa Zsa and the rest of the famous Gabor family.

[@samanthasalas4758]

thank you for making new people learn what tres leches cake through your channel.

[@deedeetee17]

Yes yes yes!!!! I was missing these! So happy

[@MrKirby365]

We originally shifted flowers so that we could get the bowevils out of it... There are small insect that eats the flour. It also errates the flower and removes any larger chunks of anything that you might not want in there but flower used to not be as clean and as well processed. Just like most other powders and sugars. I believe it will also help mix the ingredients that are dry Add a little bit of air into the final product although it's so minimal that I doubt it makes a big difference especially after you stir or use a mixer.

[@AttnDefDis_]

I love this outfit and it's so fun seeing you make something from scratch. Entertaining as always.

You just gotta bake the Dolly Parton cake mix she’s got out. 👏🏼👏🏼

[@lindagillies4939]

I either separate the yolks by hand, or use one of those yolk-separation thingies.

[@johnpinegar8027]

I love these baking videos. Such a great chance to learn how to make something new. Great job as always Jaymes Mansfield. 👏

[@Pinkrave69]

Ms woman, you have been looking absolutely STUNNING lately!

[@EddVCR]

I was having a really bad day, but watching your video during lunch break really lifted my spirit. Thank goodness for Jaymes the Domestic Goddess!🌈

[@warrengray8611]

Sifting takes the lumps out and lightens the powders and for air as well

[@cosmic_adrian]

Not the got2glued, talk about styling a cake fit for the wig goddess 😂 hugs and kisses from California.

[@kristal3346]

I'd love to see a pineapple upside down cake. It's my favorite kind of cake and it'd be fun to watch Jaymes have to invert the cake before serving.

[@edgrlsz]

You are such a beauty! also loving the cute guys who pop up on the corner of the screen, cute touch! xoxo 💋♥️✨

[@Floofyboy98]

I wanna see Jaymes make a lemon meringue pie

[@hannalowercase5928]

and invite lemon from canada’s drag race lol

[@brianferguson7902]

Jaymes' make up looks amazing!!

[@edwardmahony8160]

Wow looks delicious!!!

[@alexysq2660]

Actually, my Dear, it had really never even occurred to me to question or wonder about your "ethnic background", yet, from what you were saying, there are apparently those who do. As far as i'm concerned however, you are *you, yourself :* utterly fabulous and simply gorgeous; what more than that even matters ?? And although of course one most certainly should as well embrace and take pride in what-e-v-e-r their DNA might reflect, each and every possibility and variation thereof is truly absolutely equal in 'merit' and 'value', yet having little or no real greatly significant impact or influence on just who or what we are as beings. At least, that's what i believe ... but of course, such matters truly CAN be a consideration when it comes to ones' ability to create a simply d'voooon pastel/queque de Tres Leches, ?!que si 😁...?! ~!! Un otro video maravilloso, mi queridita/-o **Jaymes*;* en verdad te adoro muchisimo 💖😊

[@jessicacaraballo645]

Omg you had me at tres Leche cake but when you said chocolate I was like 🎂😍😲🤯

[@TheArizonaGurl]

You should try that cake hack I've seen where you take a boxed cake mix and a can of soda (the metal tin cans) and mix together, and then cook. It's supposed to come out..."supposed" to come out like a regular cake. Anyways, love this vid ❤️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈.

[@alikar5516]

I would love to see you bake a deliciously sweet (Chess Pie). That would be awesome! 😋🎂💕

[@Jacob42086]

Can't wait to see you on all stars 8 ☺️🥰

[@lostartistic]

Love your baking videos!!

[@SD-bf6hk]

Omg I don’t care what you are doing cause you are amazing doing anything!!! Thank you for making these wonderful video!!! You always brighten my dreary mood.

[@ElAye240]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 the crown suits you perfectly!!

[@luvanime4life]

Sifting gets rid of lumps so you have a smooth batter. 😆

[@rossanadehache165]

Me reí muchísimo con este video, sobretodo cuando dices "stiff" e hiciste sonidos sensuales, jajajajaja. Me encantó.

[@brittanyp6650]

I love the domestic goddess series! Yay Jaymes!

[@pokecasual6027]

Tres leche is my favorite cake

[@ZombieMiezz]

Trés jolie Jaymes! J'adore! 🖤

[@pnutty5139]

You inadvertently made it look like the cake in minecraft hehe. I'm sure yours was much fluffier and nicer though!❤️

[@mondaynightballroom20]

Oh! Also, if you wanna make chocolate whipped cream frosting, you can heat the cream and then pour it over the chocolate to melt it, stirring a little bit until it's smooth but not much as it can make it grainy. Refrigerator overnight and then whip the next day. The cocoa butter in the chocolate will give it more body and richness than just using cocoa powder. I think I'm paraphrasing a Martha Stewart recipe, so google her name and chocolate whipped cream for more info

[@x.Aura.x]

And this is a dumb tip and I'm not a professional in any sense of the word, but if you need to separate your yolks and whites, you can get a slotted spoon or really any spoon-like thing with holes in it and crack the egg on top of it so the yolk will get caught on the spoon and the whites will drip down through the slots into your bowl/egg catching container of choice ✌️😂💓

[@MrKirby365]

You can't get stiff peaks with egg yolks.... As a matter of fact if you have any fat in there At any point the egg whites will not whip up at all. You could whip them for ten years and they won't whip off if you've got fat in there.... It's also why you don't want to use a plastic bowl because plastic usually holds on fat. And can cause you cannot be able to beat your egg whites up properly. Egg white speed best at room temperature, In a large bowl... I know that seems crazy but the larger your bowl the more easy it is to incorporate air without making a mess. Same thing for whipped cream. Accept when you're whipping cream you want the bowl the cream the mixer bears as cold as you can get them stick everything but your actual mixer in the freezer and the cream just keep that in the fridge.... And then about a minute before you're ready get everything out set up your mixer. And you're cream will whip up and under two minutes

[@alanarodriguez6838]

Love tres leche cake! Im craving one now!!

[@LunovaLabs]

OMG thank you so much for spraying in the sink!

[@MrKirby365]

Jaymes is over here like yes please think I am living the full fantasy for everything i'm not showing you on camera... Werk mama I live

[@cuddly-toy7646]

I made one of these and it was delicious! The one thing that was messing me up was the frosting, the recipe l was using called for gelatin. You definitely don't need that. I want to soon try Japanese Christmas cake which I'm significantly more afraid to do...

[@silverwolf019]

I totally get what you mean! I was afraid to make the Japanese shortcake for so long but once I made it, it wasn't so terrifying! I promise it's not as intimidating as it seems. If you can make tres leches cake then I know you can make the Japanese shortcake!!

[@cuddly-toy7646]

@@silverwolf019 That's very encouraging, thank you :D

[@IconandEveryman]

So glad the “got2b glued” didn’t end up in the frosting, although it may have been a good stiffener…in more ways than one.☠️😂 Love this series!

[@jaynebugs]

You can separate the yolk with a plastic bottle by squeezing it over the yolk and the bottle just kinda slurps it up. I hope that's helpful! 😊

[@JaymesMansfield]

It didn’t work for me when I tried it. 🤣 but thanks for the tip.

[@Rai_S82]

I think the easiest way is just using the shells! I was dying watching Jaymes try to scoop with a spoon and manage the Go Pro at the same time 🤣

[@jaynebugs]

@@JaymesMansfield Oh, darn it. It worked for me, but I've only done it a couple times.

[@AxelDc99]

James some people add A Little bit of Cocoa Powder AND melted chocolate. To make it really tasty like a chocolate cake.

[@MissMozzyDee]

I LOVE that you shop at Vixen by Micheline Pitt!

[@cherrydoodles]

If you want to add cocoa powder to any cake, to compensate for the heaviness, you need to add a tbsp of milk for every tbsp of cocoa powder. Of course, the best way to make a cake chocolately is to add melted chocolate to your mix!

[@markjade3587]

So fun😍❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love Tres Leches!!!! Had it last month lol.

Now this cake is wonderful, but it's just missing one more thing!!!!!!

[@TheModernMame]

Yummy Goddess!!

[@keanuweaves2209]

I was just by coincidence making a tres leches cake and then saw this but I didn't make stiff peaks... I thought I messed up adding the sugar too quickly in the egg whites. Hearing you talk about how important stiff peaks are is haunting me as my cake soaks.

[@MrKirby365]

You don't have to worry there jaymes professional bakers don't just throw shit in a bowl and hope for the best
