How To Make And Decorate Cupcakes | Georgia's Cakes

[@tinaknutsen]

I see a lot of commenters wanting to become cake decorator. I want to note a few things as someone who worked in a bakery. Firstly it is exciting starting out and making pretty cakes and learning various techniques. With that said, working 8 plus hours a day filling customer orders is your feet and body can hurt..your shoulders and hands from the repetitive movements. Lastly, be prepared for happy and cranky customers!!! These are things I was never told when I got into cake decorating. Moreover, No matter what be kind to that cranky customer…I know it can be tough but it shows professionalism on your part if you plan to run any business! Would you watch a cranky You’Tuber? This lady was a joy to watch…she shows professionalism. Just food for thought!

[@Rizzleralpha69]

This is really helpful 😊 I'm a 10 year old girl and my dream is to make my own restaurant called muffin top. I'm really EXCITED!! 😁

[@abkverma]

So nice dream

[@carolwallington1328]

Well done…practice, practice, practice and I’ll keep looking out for you. Perhaps you could start your own KZbin channel?

[@debjudisch5548]

Jaylynn, you are awesome! To be 10 years old and already planning your future shows that you will absolutely be successful! Wish I would have been that smart AND mature! I'm 65 now and having trouble making a sponge cake. I hope that you have many adults around you keeping you positive on chasing and catching that dream. Can you tell that I am just a little bit excited for you? lol! Good luck, sweet thing...keep following your sweet dreams!

[@christinebeames2311]

Hi jaylyn , I’m 77 and had cafes , I’ve never lost the thrill of watching the buns rise , cafes are a wonderfull business , you set you own hours , you have no bad debts , your customers are pleased to see you and go out happy , as long as you remember that your customer is sooo important and treat them with respect and care , you will do well , I wish you all the best 8n the future shop you will own xx

[@Rizzleralpha69]

#carol Wallington, I think I'm making a Yt channel when I'm 13, just for my own safety 😂

[@germaniums2611]

Finally a British baking channel! I don’t have to search the internet for measurement conversions anymore! 😂

[@jemimah1748]

I love how you explain the smallest details for beginners!

[@mariawoodson9869]

I couldn't find the sugar water gadget on your link! I'm obsessed!

[@craft1305]

I’ve tried both methods using several colors and I found the plastic wrap method more reliable. All the colors come out right when you start piping. I noticed your first cupcakes only showed two colors whereas the last cupcakes showed all the colors. I do love your frosting tips. Thank you for your video! 🥰

[@debjudisch5548]

Yeah..I don't really find the plastic wrap method to be that much trouble, myself. And it is perfect from the beginning to the end! But Georgia's did look really nice once all the colors got down there. It is so satisfying to see, I think!

[@eyedaacorr7683]

I love you, I am starting my own cake shop here in Gambia , I am with your tutorials all day long 👌🏾

[@libertygiveme1987]

You do such LOVELY WORK!!!! Thank-You for explaining everything in detail. It can be OVERWHELMING when you're just starting out!!!!

[@thatgirlstephh3391]

If you lay a slightly damp paper towel over the american butter cream it helps keep it from forming that crust as quickly

[@tarnishedknight730]

A bit of trivia: If you find a number on the inside of your scoop (especially in the U.S., and on older scoops) that number indicates how many scoops you will get out of one quart ice cream. A #8 would give you eight scoops; a #10 would give you ten scoops and so on. 🍦

[@IMP3TIGO]

Another super helpful video, love the tip on icing the sides of the piping bag (and putting it in a flower vase type container when filling it),.

[@rachelraddant9103]

Honestly, this is the most helpful buttercream tutorial I have ever seen, and believe me, I've seen tons!

[@paranoidfurry58]

I've just started watching your videos and I'm learning so much! I've actually been trying to learn different techniques so I can one day open a bakery in my little town but it depends on if I'm still living here by then.

[@SR98889]

I tried this recipe, and it’s SOOOOO good! Everyone loves it!

[@melissatalamantez3048]

Wow...I've been trying to practice & have watched tons a videos but this was the 1st that actually helped & didn't try to over explain it to the point that it's impossible to understand at all. Thank you!

[@GeorgiasCakes]

you're so welcome!

[@nichiigawa]

She’s amazing in explaining everything! I loved her so much and glad that I came across your channel ❤️

[@debjudisch5548]

Georgia, I love you bunches! You are not only a phenomenal Baker, but you just seem like such a sweet, fun, life-loving person! Thank you for sharing so much with us. Now, I have to say something, and this is something I have noticed with EVERY Baker, NOT just you...I wonder if anyone realizes that the flour used for things that need rising power is called "self-RISING" flour? I hear everyone saying self-raising, but it is actually self-RISING. Just something I have noticed. Think I am wrong? Go to a grocery online and type it in and then read the bags, or you can trust me on this one. Please note: I am NOT trying to be rude or anything, it's just an observation!

[@pinkyblinky2626]

My daughters love when I make them cute cupcakes 🧁 thank you for sharing ❤️

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Thank you!

[@gloritalorenita]

Thank you so much! This was very helpful since I didn’t want to use two or three bags in one big one.

[@leahmarks5303]

Absolutely loved the rainbow piping effect, thank you! Also may I ask what lipstick you're wearing? It's stunning!! xxx

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Thank you! I believe it's from MAC :)

[@maevep7267]

Love your videos. Simple and very helpful for novice bakers! 👍

[@NataliaLassance]

You make it all seem soooo simple! THANK YOU for being such a great inspiration ♥️😍♥️

[@mmp495]

Thank you for the vase and multicolor piping technique. ❤

[@JL-uz9ky]

CupCakes in Canada are on fire!!! That's what most people bring to any party nowadays and so many people place orders for "cupcake birthdays:"...for both children's and adults parties. There are so many cupcake bakeries...they're mad for cupcakes here. I prefer making full cakes...but cupcakes are pretty decadent too! YOURS ARE BEAUTIFUL Georgia!!!!!

[@thejfamily4171]

I Love you😍💗😘💗💗💗😍😍😍😍

[@Jo-bt3xr]

Very good technique! I never know how to pipe😅 Now I think I am confident to will try! Thanks!

[@hollyyyuh4974]

You should try out the Russian piping tips they make a lovely flower pattern (if you haven’t already)🍰💖🌸🌺

[@jeffdesoto209]

I just got my Russian tips. I cant wait to try them. I seen a few different techniques of coloring besides your way. (No need for a conversion coupling) (Lay out rows of frosting in a sheet of plastic, roll it, then into a piping bag or laying I think it was gel inside the tip then the frosting.) I think your way would give a more consistent color result.

[@debjudisch5548]

Actually, both ways work. I will say that laying out your perfect lines of buttercream and then rolling them up, all against each other gives you a cleaner line between colors. I'm not sure what you are talking about when you say something about "gel"? There is no gel inside the tip. Anyway, either method works well.

[@reneesimmons4817]

You are amazing!! You make it look so easy!

[@hana67432]

I love your Amazing Videos, You deserve more recognition and Love than you are currently receiving from your Subscribers on your KZbin Channel, I love you a lot Georgia. 😃

[@shrau7306]

Very helpful 👌 ☺ am a ten year old and I have a dream to get a lots of order for cakes 🎂 am gonna practice all of this in summer vacation 😀

[@sharoncarroll1236]

I note that you leave your cupcakes in the tins to cool. I always thought that the cake papers would pull away when out of the tin because they sweated. What are your thoughts on this please?

[@sophiamace8154]

[@carlitawashington]

I’m so glad to hear you say white buttercream is boring. Can someone please tell that to my co-worker at Hy-Vee? Lol we’re both cake designers and she wants all cakes in the display case to have white buttercream with sprinkles. We can only use colors if the customer orders a custom cake 🙁

[@Stircrazyy10]

I'm knew to your videos and recently subscribed but I agree with the other comments, you should have way more subscribers! You explain things in detail and you're so cute while doing so. In Italian there's a saying when someone comes across very sincere and it's "simpatica" which google translates to nice but it means so much more than that in Italian. Thanks for the great videos!

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Thank you so much that's so sweet!!

[@debjudisch5548]

Oh, Georgia, I forgot, one more thing...Did you learn the melted butter technique somewhere, or did you just decide to try it and discovered it yourself? I find it so fascinating! Most Baker's feet so much over the butter and spend so much time warning is "don't let your butter get all melty and greasy!" Maybe they should give you method a whirl and see how really stress-free and fun baking CAN be! LOL! Thanks again...

Thanks. Doesn’t your scoop have the size printed onto it? Love the soaker gadget! 🇨🇦

[@lamemechose7072]

I’ve discovered the hard way that some brands put the number either in a weird place or just don’t number their scoops at all. I have six scoops and I have to store two of them in the boxes because the manufacturer didn’t label them.

[@xarmanderbunny8197]

I already have an update, they came out incredible! 🙏♥️♥️♥️ I never bake and so I can hardly believe I made such delicious cupcakes with my own hands in my kitchen! We will definitely be using the sponge cake recipe for everything now haha! And thank you so much for providing an icing recipe without eggs, not one of us in my family can stand to eat raw eggs 🙏 my mom immediately suggested we copy the recipe in our book. Thank you so much ♥️ if anyone happens to read, stick to the recipe strictly! I added more milk in the icing and it’s more runny than in the video. Still delicious though!

[@therealchurchgirl]

Thank you Georgia's cake....God bless you

[@susansasso7778]

Thanks for the decorating secrets. You make it look so easy. I can't wait to try it myself. I'm making Easter cupcakes. I hope they look as pretty and delicious as yours.

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Thank you!

[@chinkrisbe1508]

Could I please ask why you put the syrup on the cupcakes? Is it only necessary for cotton cake recipes? I saw another recipes does putting syrup in between a 6-inch cake as well (before decorating with whipped 35% cream)... thank you...

[@GeorgiasCakes]

It helps keep the cake moist - you don't have to soak them if they're being eaten within a day but I find it helps them not dry out as quickly :)

[@chinkrisbe1508]

@@GeorgiasCakes Thanks... btw, it's nice to have the measurements in grams. Do you base in London?

[@marianneodell7637]

Cute,but I want my entire cupcake covered in frosting 😋

[@ceecee8757]

That's a hot mess waiting to happen, amateur.

[@debjudisch5548]

Believe me...that IS enough frosting for a cupcake! If you need more frosting, you also better find a good dentist, as well!

[@LiveLaughLove8489]

Add more powdered sugar. Only add a tsp of milk at a time. And you may not even need it. I usually do 1lb butter and about 5-7 cups powdered sugar and a 1tsp of vanilla extract and a little cream. But definitely 1tsp of liquid at a time until desired consistency.

[@toyadavidson1949]

How do you bake them and avoid the papers burning.... where did I go wrong? Watching from 🇯🇲

[@katyspartz]

Love this! Why American buttercream vs swiss? Can you freeze cupcakes, and would you freeze unfrosted or is it possible to freeze with frosting too?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

It's best to freeze cupcakes without the frosting and make the frosting fresh so it's extra creamy!

[@bethaniefrederickson3305]

Cake decorating is only for the rich and famous! ☹️ I've spent over $300 on supplies and attempted 2 cakes...that was two years ago! And I can't say they were successes! In my defense, I was trying to convert a traditional cake to gluten free...didn't go over well! This past Christmas, I got the cake making bug again..bought more fun supplies..but just didn't get around to it!😟🤷😒 Same on Valentine's Day...and St Patties!!..but I'm hopeful for this Easter! The first cake I tried was Georgia's pink chocolate drip cake with all the cool decorations. Only got as far as the cake and frosting...and the chocolate drip. Oh yeah and another thing...I usually don't have enough room in my fridge to cool the cake. And who the frick is gonna eat the cake everyone is on a diet!..not to mention the cost of the ingredients is probably the reason I can't get myself back into it I have this block that comes from anxiety of messing up...and so many decorating techniques out there! Kinda overwhelming! You know what it is?;..I have kids!!...can't go too long without being interrupted!...that and an ADD/OCD combo! Ohwell🤪 But it looks fun!

[@wisechoicecars4994]

your video shows cupcakes in nice white cases that haven't leached the oil through and gone opaque, how do you achieve this ? do you use a specific make of greaseproof case to prevent this? I cannot find cases that don't go opaque..

[@rosettebraaten5622]

Beautiful could not see the nozzle which one is it?

[@glennacloud2895]

When you frost a cupcake why do you leave one side without frosting? I like the frosting to cover the entire top.

[@8ADEZE]

basically it’s so it’s less messy when peeling off the liner to eat the cake. Also if it’s all the way to the edge you are more likely to squash the icing if you were to pick it up☺️

I used the sugar water and brushed it on the cupcakes and found that some of the papers came away from the cupcakes. Why would this happen? Doesn’t happen when I wasn’t applying the liquid sugar.

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Some papers do this to cupcakes - I've never had an issue with the ones I use, but have had similar issues in the past with other brands. It may be a case of finding the best brand of cases!
