Hi Carol, I love you and you are awesome teacher!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Zelia! Thank you my dear!

[@cajones414]

Crazy! I have always used a half sheet of paper towel to help my bows hold shape. I thought i was alone! I do love the way you make your loops for your bow and will be trying it soon!!

[@KarolynsKakes]

That's so funny, the paper towel works the best! Let me know how it works out!

[@tiffanythompson5925]

I have learned so much from your channel, keep the videos coming!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Awwww thank you! I'm working on getting more consistent with my videos, so there will be more coming soon!

[@nicoleagostini9447]

Love it!!! I like it a lot that is different from what we usually see on cakes and it looks very professional. 😍

[@KarolynsKakes]

Love it thanks once again it is so relaxing watching you do your thing. Just have a quick question the little bows on top of the cake is it attached on wires? If yes are wire’s safe to put in the cake? Thank in advance. Love from Australia 🇦🇺 sorry I alway have heaps of questions bloody Aussies 😊

[@KarolynsKakes]

You do beautiful work..

[@lorettacedrone5017]

Hi Karolyn, when the bow is dry is it supposed to be really hard? Also should I put a light coating over it after is dry? Thank you.

[@KarolynsKakes]

It dries semi- hard. Light pressure shouldn’t mess it up, but it can be crushed with more pressure (if that makes sense lol) And you’re asking to put a light coating of what on it?

[@lorettacedrone5017]

@@KarolynsKakes sorry , Crisco? My bow dried really hard. Could I have put too much tylose powder in it? One more thing , should I wait to put the tylose in it when I’m getting ready to use it or immediately when I make it? I want to say that watching your videos have been a game changer for me. Thank you for all you do for us.

[@fancyfingers101]

Thank you for this. Can you tell me what to do to fix little cracks in the fondant?

[@KarolynsKakes]

It depends on what they are from. Sometimes you can take a little shortening on a paint brush and "spackle" the crack. Here is a video I made on how to work with fondant to get it smooth (before you cover a cake with it) kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4u3hGSBpKeojs0

[@SweetDesirecakeshopp]

Do you use tylose powder on the fondant when covering a cake?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I actually do just because I find the marshmallow fondant is a lot easier to work with and smoother with a little bit added. I don't add as much when I'm covering a cake as I do when I'm making decorations. Fondant that is for decorations has more Tylose in it so it can dry hard.

[@SweetDesirecakeshopp]

@@KarolynsKakes sounds good thank you 😊

[@amypournoury9790]

Love it!!! Thank you so much💞💞💞

[@louiselemon9717]

Very Cute! Another great technique :-)

[@BeeRavie]

Are Tylose and CMC powder interchangeable?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yup! Same thing. I now buy the Wilton Gum Tex and just put it in the smaller Tylose powder container.

[@happigoodeez6177]

Karolyn, I do cakes and RI cookies. I am so fortunate to have found you during my week off over the holidays! I cannot wait to try some of your decorating techniques and up my cake game! From the bottom of this Tennessee heart, I truly THANK YOU. ❤

[@siboniwedube3798]

Thank u

[@heerkalra]

My fondant decorations like the bow keep falling off the cake.. what could I be doing wrong? I use the piping gel too to stick it on the cake

[@KarolynsKakes]

You can anchor it to the cake by putting a toothpick behind the center!

[@shayoncebrowne9956]

Hey karolyn how do you go about take orders from your customers up to pick date

[@KarolynsKakes]

shayonce browne are you asking my process from when I get the cake order to the time they pick it up?
