How to Make a Christmas Cake

[@knajera1058]

Hey Emmy! Just thought I'd share this with you... My daughter is in preschool, and learning to read. We were watching this video the other day and I paused it at 00:02 so the video could buffer. While paused, my daughter asked me what the words said and after working with her for a little bit, she read the video title! This probably doesn't mean much to you, but I will remember it forever :-) so thank you for posting this video! By the way, my daughter loves watching your videos, especially the crayon shin chans butt pudding! Happy new year Emmy! Thanks again!

[@melissaann582]

So sweet I hope u and your family are doing well

[@StudioErza929]

I work in a very labor intensive job; factory worker! I don't watch TV and on a very grueling days I sit back and watch KZbin videos! I found you not to long ago and your videos have brought me so much peace and serenity, not to mention you have a very soothing voice! I can't wait for what the New Year awaits us. I'm sure much more great content like this! Thank you, many blessings, and Merry Christmas!

[@DontSigh]

That would be more of a summer cake in Sweden. It's interesting how we use the same ingredients for different traditions :)

[@amandacrawford3673]

Same for Arkansas in the US!

[@ScathachWarrior]

I think a good thing to keep in mind if you want to make a larger cake is that whipped cream doesn't stay whipped very long, so if you want it to last more than one night you'll need to use a different frosting. Looks absolutely adorable!

[@MsMOLLYKINS]

A www you are a lovely cook . We home chefs do not apologise for mistakes , you just smile and hand over your baked goods . Lol people will just be greatful to be getting home made yummies xoxox

[@emilyzuidema9047]

I love the happy dance you do when you first bite into good food!

[@SamuelLiebermann]

I'm going to do it now, with the addition of 4-5 Irish Cream shots to each half of the cake before coating it with the cream...

[@emmymade]

Mmm...that sounds delicious.

[@silentwinged]

Aww I had the same thought while watching that - "Oh no... overwhipped cream!" Oh well, at least we got to see you frost the cake this time! I'll be making something sort of the same next week, except it's an angel food cake with more layers, and I mix crushed frozen strawberries into the cream for the filling (I don't do fresh strawberries in Ontario in December - seems wrong).

[@MsDreamcakes]

We call this strawberry shortcake. Is there a reason/story behind this being chosen as a Christmas cake in Japan? Whipping your own whipped cream....YUMMMMM!!!!

[@mynocturnallife]

MsDreamcakes Oddly, strawberrys in Japan are in season around that time of year.

[@derekbegins]

Here a tip Emmy!xD when you find that you over whipped your whipped cream a lil (not till it split and become butter) you can add a little bit more whipped cream into the mixture and stir it through. your whipped cream will be smooth again! this method only works when you over whipped the cream till it's a little lumpy but it wont work if you over whipped it into butter and it splits. also if you wanna make the cake a little more moist, just brush it with some simple syrup with a dash of vanilla (or steep your syrup with vanilla bean) for extra flavor and moisture!

[@nicoleluna8638]

I am going to make that tomorrow. Emmy I've been following your videos for a while and they are so amazing! Thank you for all you do! Merry Christmas!

[@karenieeeee]

the messier, the tastier~

[@emmymade]

Yay!

[@ChantalleNguyen]

Emmy, you overwhipped the cream. Always keep an eye on it when you're whipping the cream, I learned it the hard way. Once I didn't watch my cream when i was whipping it and when I came back it was butter!

[@diabeticdoode]

The Peculiar Purple Pieman. That looks delicious!

[@krystinayoumans2855]

that seriously made my mouth water. I'm definitely going to make a version of this for Sunday dinner today. I'm not in charge of desert, but I believe my family & friends will enjoy :-) Thanks for sharing!

[@NeverEndingKarla]

Looks super yummy! I want to make it for my family. Thanks for the recipe!

[@emmymade]

Yes, make it - they'll love it!

[@maiadion557]

Its like a Strawberry shortcake. My mom used to make this cake for my birthday in June so for me its more a summer cake🤤

[@HallOfFantasy]

Well done with homecooking. For the not cooking inclined residents in Japan, Christmas Cakes can usually be ordered from Supermarkets, convenience stores or online.

[@alejandromonterrey6173]

I saw the cream and I was like "She over-whipped it." lol. Happens to the best of us. Outside of that, great job. The cake looked great :D It's one of my favorite things to make during the holidays. I hate Christmas, but any excuse to cook in abundance is one I will use. HAHA. Also a fun add-on is brushing the inner layers, and top of the cake with some sort of liqueur diluted in simple syrup. It gives it some pizzas.

[@SeifellAlmancht]

Adorable! It looks so yummy! I love you videos. They make me feel all happy inside.

[@emmymade]

:)

[@coolcat_88]

What an adorable little cake!

[@48008920]

Emmy your cake looked really good, and I'm sure it taste good as you said it was at the end as you tasted a slice .Nicely decorated for 🎂🎄 Christmas.

[@Dionnnnz]

This time you filmed it all! Hehe, Merry Christmas!

[@cillycakes]

i like it when you show us cooking videos. merry christmas, emmy to you and your family.

[@emmymade]

Thanks :)

[@shmoolicious]

I love the Santa on top!

[@bcgrote]

Cute! So, like strawberry shortcake for Christmas? I'm down with that! Right, if you beat the cream too long, it will want to start turning into butter! Also, I read that when you are putting really beaten eggs in, whether whole or just whites, to only incorporate in one direction when you stir so they retain full "fluffiness". Not sure just how accurate that is, This is so cute, and I KNOW my father in law will eat it!

[@trunksdbzful]

Have a wonderful holidays Emmy

[@gyqz]

The whipped cream not being smooth just makes it look more like snow, so you did a perfect job! And I still want that 3D screen for all your videos :-) Happy Holidays!!!!

[@emmymade]

Hahaha :) Happy Holidays to you & yours!

[@lloydyvette]

Spectacular work! That looks delicious! Nomnomnom...

[@Tsuki570]

[@CoffeeSandwich]

Super cute. Good excuse to use the stand mixer I'm getting.

[@jessicaf6986]

Beautiful cake Emmy! Looks delicious :-)

[@starquilt]

Yum! :3 Merry Christmas Emmy!

[@katemullins38]

This looks yummy Emmy!! :)

[@Hammielover2000]

Hi Emmy! I think you may have over whipped your cream a tad bit, either that or it was heated up a little and it split, hence that gritty texture, what I like to do is I use a handheld mixer and whip the cream over a bowl of ice, it keeps the cream nice and cold and by hand whipping you can "feel" the cream thickening up and you can slowly go from there:D I think using powdered sugar instead of regular sugar makes the cream easier to pipe. I bake a lot :P good luck with your next one! :) cheers!

[@samiyabegum5661]

That is so cute I'm going to try that because It looks so easy

[@izzysoulful]

This is so adorable. Love it! 💗

[@clairebrannon8130]

I had this type of cake in South Korea at Christmastime, too.

[@Cindy-nf5in]

im glad you showed the decoration prat

[@katiegroves4868]

looks delicious Emmy

[@clareharbot2315]

In the UK we call this a Victoria sponge and a Christmas cake is a fruit cake covered in marzipan and royal icing :)

[@Lotsofcrazyag]

It looks so yummy😋

[@Natashakiable18]

Looks delicious!

[@brek.8264]

Emmy, your growth! I would love to see you remake this cake!

[@princesspippy7]

So cute!

[@plamko96]

I am so going to do this!

[@x0BlueRose]

That is sooooo pretty!

[@L4D2junkie]

That is the cutest cake ever! :'D

[@DocNighto]

It looks so cute and yummy! Happy holidays Emmy!

[@ThePrincessofRandom]

We've made a variation of this cake in my family since I was born. You buy a pre-made angel food cake, a tub of cool whip, and some frozen strawberries. Thaw the strawberries and mix with a few tablespoons of sugar, then mix them into half of the cool whip. Slice the angel food cake in two, and frost the bottom layer with the strawberries and cream mixture. Then coat the rest with the other half. It's great! Although I have no doubt that real whipped cream tastes even better :)

[@malakcookie33]

yummm that looks delicious..it looks like a cake i buy every year at a korean bakery except they put almond slivers on the sides of the cake ,ive been going every year since i was 7 years old and they always look at me like they saw me for the first time lool

[@sweetnessoverloaddd]

this looks amazing! :)

[@Flastew]

[@liffarious]

I love it! Are there good strawberries in Japan during christmas?? We make this for celebrations during Summer in Finland (Graduations, my grandma's birthday etc. :)) because that's when we get sweet strawberries. It's soo good!!

[@thatonegirlfromyoutube6563]

[@PjSparkle08]

[@samishin2297]

Second time a winner ;-)

[@shineegirl8]

I still remember how disappointed she was when she made the previous cake video. That was really sad but at least she succeeded this year! Congratulations Emmy! :D

Dear Emmy, You've always been my inspiration and I've been watching you since the very beginning, but I just got a KZbin account. It'll be an honor just knowing you read this comment. You're so good at this and I wish I could do what you do. Keep it up Emmy! I love you and your account! From, Isa

[@carolyngodfrey4948]

and we also eat it all year round! not just at christmas lol

[@durburbur4949]

That looks awesome!! I was wondering, where did you find your Santa decoration? Can't wait to try this recipe, I made a Christmas cake from scratch last year and the recipe I had wasn't good. So Yay! Gonna try again=)

[@merrygo11]

mjam looks very cute :) I will try it someday, though Idon't really understand how much I need of the ingredients xD

[@carolyngodfrey4948]

yes we call this strawberry shortcake but instead of a whole cake its like a little sponge cake with a dent in the center so you can put the strawberries inside! then you just top it off with some whipped cream and your good to go!

[@ezechielbiosfear]

Haha, thats how you make homemade butter emmy xD ! But it still looks really cute and tasty :)

[@RibbitHopX]

The Peculiar Purple Pieman
