[@bejai1962]

As a single woman, sometimes a girl just wants a small cake, not the temptation of a whole cake in the house. Thank you for this

[@prairiesky1144]

This cake is moist, buttery and so yummy! It's my new favorite recipe.

[@thequickcuisine]

Made this cake today. I just replaced buttermilk with yogurt. Came out so good. Keeper for sure. And love the small size. So hard to find recipes for 4inch...love it.. thankyou so much for sharing...

[@shayn8206]

My favorite vanilla cake is yours!! I tried sooo many and I love yours!! Thank you!!!😍😍

[@oceanblue5595]

03:19 "This cake definitely needed a pop of colours."😂😂 Yeah! Definitely!

[@tatiana32922]

Omg! This was so delicious and so easy to make !! I just made it for me and my parents! Thank you for the amazing recipe!!

[@shaani7978]

Thank you SO much! I plan on making my first mini cake this weekend and I am so excited.

[@Fsteezysk8z]

I made it and i ate it with my eyes closed. I jus poured the batter in a regular spring form pan and it was thin but wonderful. I put whipped frosting on it and sprinkled white chocolate chips on it. Thank u for the recipe!!❤❤

[@nicoleharvey42]

Can't wait to make this!!!

[@adrianazavala3855]

Stunning little cake! 😍😍😍

[@livvelvin1057]

Can you do more mini cake videos like this? I know I can just make a smaller batch of cake batter for the videos where you make a larger cake, but this was cute and fun to watch! Also, this seems more practical to make for a party with 5-10 people. Especially since it is still tall so you get a lot of cake in one slice. Came across your videos tonight and totally binged!! You're videos are put together and edited so nicely, not to mention your cakes are amazing! :)

[@shelf2953]

This is the best vanilla cake recepie ive done! Thanks so much for this💕

[@ZarnabAhmed]

how much batter did you add in each pan? in grams?

[@heathersinnema9680]

I made this cake and it tasted delicious! It's a great recipe!

[@Quinmarie43]

[@Apollo_Blaze]

[@davidcreme]

Amazing recipe, just made it eggless, by replacing eggs with same amount of yogurt😍 Couldn't be more happy😁 Thanks a lot Chelsweets❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@imadeit1355]

I loved this cake, you make it look so easy, I don’t have a turning table haha, so it’s so hard to frost cakes. Amazing job even with out that item. #ThanksForSharing #Yum #IWantToBakeNow

[@lisaedwards5797]

Perfection!

[@tarynrittenhouse4693]

Love it💕

[@sy2.083]

Great job!! Beautiful-ty

[@imgiao]

I quickly whipped this up in my 6 in spring form pan today and it was so delicious and MOIST. I opted out for a whipped cream frosting with a bit of sugar so my mom could have a second slice without feeling guilt 😌

[@dee4844mz]

Did it stay moist the next day? Does it need soaking?

[@JKFitz]

Super cute Chels !! It is very challenging to frost a cake without a turntable !! Lbss

[@nonononononnono7391]

i just made this for my birthday 2 days ago!!! it was so good

[@Apollo_Blaze]

Happy Birthday! yes this cake looks good

[@alejandraortega3681]

[@Bettyafro]

Amazing thank you

[@corinthiaslaughter6148]

I’ll probably be celebrating my birthday social distancing, so I’ll make myself this!😂

[@Apollo_Blaze]

That is a great idea! Perfect

[@spastrana2392]

Hi! First of all, love your videos and thank you for making the different size cakes!! They're perfect for a couple. My question is, where do you get those tiny glass bowls?

[@nicollemurillo2775]

omg. i love your vides

[@quetzalibuenrostro4533]

Thank you it’s my moms birthday tomorrow and I wanted something small and fast to make

[@callioscope]

This looks great and I’m always looking for small vanilla cakes because there’s just two of us and we can finish a 2-layer 6” cake in three nights. We can’t ever finish a big cake without lots of friends. What is the cook time for 2 6” layers?

[@karyv1308]

Very easy recipe but next time i think I'll put only 1/2 cup sugar on the cake batter... It was a bit too sweet for me. But other than that loved the recipe!!

[@mehrifazeli3578]

Thanks 💐

[@brianabitch89]

Could you do a “how to make topsy turvy cake”? I saw it on Pinterest and was thinking that for my upcoming birthday

[@emilyanne1171]

Can you do strawberry tarts next?? I would absolutely love that

[@crazydiamond38]

Omg how cute is this cake I am going to create this next week when my tins arrive . If I wanted to make a chocolate one too would I add 56g of cocoa

[@denizlather7622]

So cute. Could you use springforms too?

[@graveyxrdbxby]

i only have 1 4 inch pan and it is 3 inches deep. how would you recommend i adjust the recipe/ steps to make it work as one layer?

[@suzykakes]

Hi I love your channel. Do you think you can do the same with a chocolate cake please.

[@sharonagustina6467]

Hi is it strong enough for stacking 6 inch birthday cake with topping lots off candy bars. Thanks so much

[@imachapovsky2880]

People complained from how sweet it was, but great design!

[@antoniajagodic]

❤️❤️❤️

[@christianhansen3292]

i miss your shows on FB -food network i guess u no longer collabed with them. but at least i found u on youtube!

[@avnichandra3636]

Hey, I followed this recipe, it was good but the cake was a little hard! What can be the reason?

[@stayandplay5789]

Hi there, I made this cake but found when I was covering it in buttercream it was sliding around my cake board/ turntable. I did put buttercream under the first layer but didn't work. Any tips?

[@clarissaya4592]

Good job please can you use powder sugar as well for the cake

[@BianVerr]

This looks really good! Would you happen to have a recipe like this for Choclate cake ? I would love to make a mini choclate cake with out wasting a lot of ingredients.

[@miistigris2618]

I think she said on her blog to replace 1/4 cup of the flour with cocoa powder

[@annsquare9437]

Look at the recipe from Preppy Kitchen he makes small cakes

[@sandradelacruz1090]

[@djelfuerteamsterdam3778]

[@moonlightsday]

[@kristenspin2605]

[@alondrasanchez_]

How long should I freeze the cake for until I can frost it ???

[@catherinenjeri8853]

Can i use a microwave instead of an oven? With this same recipe

[@abigailashby6347]

If I want this to be chocolate cake, do I less the amount of flour?

[@tamarasanchez9563]

Love this recipe already! Has anyone made this yet? Any feedback on the flavor, was it missing vanilla?

[@sleepy2702]

Does anyone know how I could make the buttercream raspberry? Should I just add raspberry puree or jam? Maybe substitute the milk for that?

[@jennymarie8752]

Hi! Can I make this recipe for a 8 inch cake?

[@lejlam9137]

Could I add cocoa powder to the batter to make this a chocolate cake?

[@applereyes1282]

How many mins. Did she baked it? And in what temperature?

[@dcordero1984]

How can I make this recipe eggless? Can I just omit egg or do I need to add anything in to replace?

[@aluresta4572]

[@tatiqa7253]

[@dee4844mz]

Do I need to soak the layers?

[@Sweets.n.treats.bykatt]

Where are your pans from?

[@naymameem5251]

Hey can you tell me what am I doing wrong with my cake? My cake sinks easily and also it remains raw at the middlee. Please help me I am in so much dilemma 😫

[@morning08]

You can cook it longer, get baking strips, or you could put a flower nail in the middle to help the middle cook.

[@mindimoneypenny8212]

Your videos are great! Can you or would you please do a Peppa Pig cake?

[@tulsibodiwala448]

Can I double this to make a bigger layered cake?

[@perlavasileva8957]

If its only two layers it could work

[@susanrice679]

Made this tonight and it tastes like cornbread? What am I doing wrong? I did made a double batch so I could make 2 small cakes

[@Crafter18NAB]

Try using cake flour instead of all purpose.

[@aaliyazainabdullah3060]

1/4=a quarter cup?

[@shannachin8431]

Why so i keep getting dents in the side of the cake going around the whole thing?

[@teee1b645]

هلو

[@xtqca1848]

Thank u I’m depressed I need cake .

[@mylenewicked]

Hey there! Can i use 3 6” pans for this recipe? Thanks a lot ❤️

[@vvkelly97]

You probably could but they would be thinner layers.

[@jesssno9881]

How tall is it?

[@godschild2432]

No one creamed batter anymore with sugar and butter first??

[@panachepajamas2062]

Why y add butter 🧈 in your cake 🎂 y have to add only oil to the cake to be soft

[@shannabreegraham9425]

Can u write out the recipe thanks

[@lifewithryleewalker334]

Omg can you plz notice me 💖

[@AngieR19]

Ok but you didn’t say how long to cook-

[@yippuipui3684]

Can I have a full recipe ingredient .... you are speaking very fast ..... thank you

[@meIatonin]

that cake looks mad dry

[@sradhasaha]

Way too much sugar in the recipe

[@perlavasileva8957]

@B Shizzle could you put half the amount of sugar and the cake to still have a fine texture? Or maybe substitute half of the sugar with icing sugar?
