I did my first cake ever today and it was a Wedding cake and because of your amazing tips and instructions, it is a masterpiece and I’m so proud!! Thank you ✌🏾 you deserve all the goodness coming your way!!

[@hana67432]

This Cake Video Tutorial has helped me immensely to understand how to make and create a Beautiful Cake, I have learned a lot from you about all of the cake making and decorating tips and tricks, Your Wedding Cake is amazing and it looks super simple to make, I love you Georgia. 😃

[@maniasevastas2309]

You’re so talented. I’m loving watching all your videos. Well done! I used to do a lot of cake decorating and lost my motivation. Felt burnt out. Im finding watching you is getting me excited about it again.😊

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Thank you so much, I hope you find our creativity in cake decorating soon!! ❤

[@heathermoore1499]

Thanks G, I can't wait to see your wedding cake. 💗

[@chamilaperera7160]

Beautiful wedding cake and perfectly stacked tiers…😍

[@inutunyambemwale7357]

Very educative and straight forward tutorial.Would like to see more videos on how to make cake cream without butter

[@Melanierose21122]

I think something that many people don't mention is that the cake boards you use for middle tiers are thinner and lighter. They are somewhat different than your normal cake boards. There are cake boards for tiered cakes. I hope she confirms this.

[@richardshillings1251]

Fabulous job Georgia, you make it look so easy.

[@shirankaarur8530]

going today to the your class cant wait!!

[@Roxy14pr]

Georgia, I wanna say that I LOVE your Perfect Cake course!! I'm rookie, starting in this sweet art and your course was easy to follow and understand. You and Lee' at, are perfect instructors, I enjoyed the course so much and learned lots of tricks that I never imagine how much they will help. Keep the good work! Hugs from Puerto Rico! 🇵🇷

[@libertygiveme1987]

BEAUTIFUL JOB Georgia!!!! Personally, I'd put a bit more Gold on it.

[@ameka12345]

Really useful video thank you so much! My only note would be with the florist tape it adheres when you pull it! X

[@joycek9776]

You are amazing! Love watching your tutorials.

[@tanyafreeman-xe2ev]

Your tutorials are great, easy to understand and practical. How long would a wedding cake like this last from making it to eating it, and would it need refrigeration the whole time? Looking forward to your next tutorial! Thank you

[@celestesassine2345]

This was JUST what I needed, including the flowers. God is SOOOOO GOOD. Thank you

[@JOrogun]

This is super lovely. Beautiful👏🏾👏🏾 Can you advise on how long a textured buttercream decorated cake can last at room temperature? Thanks

[@christopherdriving6425]

looks amazing. thanks for the tips. I always use. your Swiss buttercream

[@sherryr1222]

So helpful. I imagine you stack before adding any elaborate decorations to any layers (tunnels, train tracks etc)? Making my 5 year olds dream cake

[@rimahodaly327]

Great work and great explanation

[@mariaanastasio5325]

Gorgeous as usual, thanks 🙏

[@medoraelhaj2023]

What type of icing do you use? Also how long do you chill the cake once assembled?

[@damilolaashipa8332]

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Thank you! This cake feeds 70 people

[@tammy2]

@@GeorgiasCakes Thank you!

[@christancedell5818]

Thanks for sharing. This tutorial helps me a lot because it answers a lot of my questions! However I would like to know how much buttercream for each size of cake?. Thanks again and looking forward to reading your response.😊

[@brandydodds6584]

Beautiful 😍

[@jerusalemtermeer5982]

Lovely it is wonderful 😊

[@hayleyvinden9289]

Lovely cake! Do you have any videos that say when to get the sponge layers out of the freezer, and when to decorate in buttercream? I have a cake needed this weekend for my daughter’s birthday!

[@malkanthikiriwendala8155]

Amazing ❤I just love it ❤❤

[@neghtentow5594]

Excellent job will greatly help me

[@maryamrani3540]

Omg My heartbeat got so fast when she was setting the second layer of cake on the bottom cake. I really felt like I was in her place so stressing 😫😫

[@samantaumutoniwase6100]

Hello Georgia, thanks for the tutorial. I have a question very often thé buttercream cracks when I try to stack a cake. I use meringue buttercream

[@annastapleton4252]

Amazing thank you so much! If you were going to transport this cake, would you assemble it without the flowers fully or leave one layer off? And also how do you transport your prepared flowers in the car?

[@berenicelev5580]

Hi Georgia, thank for this tutorial. Would you travel with this cakes completely stacked?

[@MISMEEHAN]

amazing! thank you

[@rayzelcarneiro7026]

Hey Georgia!! I'd love to see your freezer. Like how big it is. As you freeze cakes all the time. Anyone else??

[@lorrainehicks9172]

Cake is absolutely gorgeous. You made stacking so easy. In America tutorials all I see is them pounding down the central dowel with a hammer from the top of the cake. Your way looks much easier and less chance of damaging the cake. I also love the acetate trick in the cake tins I remember seeing it on your channel before. How could I find it again. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Thank you! Yes that really scares me so I much prefer this method! You can find the acetate trick on my back to basics wedding cake tutorial - I use paper in that specific tutorial but acetate works even better!

[@arettahill6148]

Hello, as you were stacking the cakes are you still leaving the cardboard on the bottom of the cakes as you are stacking the cakes? Or are you totally removing the boards as you are stacking them to frost them ?

[@mariajoannou9936]

Perfection Georgia, my fear is not knowing how long fresh flowers stay fresh, on the cake. So how far in advance should one decorate?..

[@GeorgiasCakes]

You can prepare the flowers a day in advance and keep them in the fridge overnight. I attach them to the cake as last minute as possible!

[@riznazfathima593]

Cool😍

[@analiamachado6038]

Beautiful! Question: For how many ppl yelds this cake 8”6”and 4”?

[@rebecatepozavila9015]

Hi! More or less 35 to 40 portions

[@rosalindameza7375]

Thank you!!!!

[@justmenorsky850]

Thanks for sharing your video

[@NattabiRehema-r3v]

I just feel Home now, thanks

[@margaretmcnamee1155]

Great video thanks how would I decorate a chocolate biscuit wedding cake would I use fondant ? Would buttercream be an option?

[@moniquemonet982]

Is the wooden dowel sharp on one end that is sitting on the 8 inch bottom tier? Is it sitting just on top of the bottom of this board or does it have a sharpened edge and poked into the bottom 8 inch board?

[@modesterkimonga919]

Waaoh asante sana

[@sylviakosgei6033]

Hello Georgia, since I found your channel my life has never been the same,always following you from Kenya. Kindly advice how many kgs is this whole cake please

[@arladeleon3806]

Where do you get the acetate that you used? I think the idea of layering your cakes inside the pans is genius!

[@saralumia8865]

thank you for this video! do you add your supports when your cake is cold? because I have it when the cake is cold and my buttercream cracks. Do you have a solution ?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

If you find your cake is cracking you can add your supports when you are building up your cake with the layers of buttercream!

[@christelsprankenis475]

Hey Gorgia how long does the cake have to stand at room temperature before you can cut the cake. I live in Belgium and it's not that hot here. I don't like it when the buttercream crumbles.

[@christelsprankenis475]

Sorry Georgia I misspelled your name my apologies for this.

[@ashleerobinson5]

Hi, great job with the cake! Where can I find your buttercream recipe that’s for both cakes and cupcakes?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

On my channel :)

[@gabrielagresely4014]

Hi Georgia can you link the equipment you used. Boards, stick, straws, etc. thanks

[@jennypetrakis8934]

Hi, thanks for this tutorial, just a question when you put your cakes in the freezer and bring them into your kitchen do they sweat🙂

[@nicolajoseph454]

Hi Georgia , how do you treat with condensation on your cakes seeing that you det in the freezer?

[@raymondsworld9895]

❤wow

[@Kim-et5pi]

Hi Georgia - where do you get that disc that gives your the diameters of cakes to find the middle? Thank you - beautiful work!

[@graceandmarvellouswonders6249]

Thank you

[@melonyknab2072]

Will you share your buttercream icing recipe?

[@christelsprankenis475]

Sorry Georgia I misspelled your name my apologies for this.

[@VeronicaJones58]

♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@Itskellyy1310]

Does refrigeration or freezing cause dryness in the cake? I’m making my first ever wedding cake and I’m so scared about it being dry. I’m just a beginner so I a bit nervous 😬

[@chrisbeckfield9298]

What would you say is the cheapest way to make or buy around 200 half sheet cakes for a cake fight. Will consist of mostly buttercream.

[@shekinahiyema5380]

Thanks so much for sharing with all your heart So,please teacher can you continue with the online school

[@ediths.q.3097]

What happens when the cream thaws? Usually when temperature changes it start ti crack. T he cake do not sweat during that process too?.

[@orangebakestv1599]

Thanks for sharing, so helpful but won't the cake sweat, in the process??

[@GeorgiasCakes]

It's important to control the temperature changes, so do't freeze the cake then bring it to a warm room. Best to put it in the fridge first or make sure the room is cold!

[@abraj1043]

😍❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@Amore4848]

Is condensation happening when it comes to room temperature? Thx

[@rayzelcarneiro7026]

Square Cake Tutorial please

[@EbokaAnthonyChukwuemeka]

Please ma can you do a video of the butter cream you use and why is it that whenever I do my cakes and pop it in the freezer by the time am to transport it it begins to melt am from Nigeria I think it cause of the weather

[@mecheleclasson]

How long will the flowers stay fresh in the cake for a wedding?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Flowers last well as long as it's not too hot! I keep mine in the fridge to make them last even longer

[@iriamonge1704]

how many portions will this cake have?

[@mariamyakob2136]

Hi, could you please make a video about the medical assistant cake or the heart cake please thank you.

[@keishamcmillan9750]

@georgia’s cakes how are you able to transport in the hotter months without the cakes melting

[@GeorgiasCakes]

in an airconditioned car!

[@shazaharvey2130]

I can't see the link for the marking board . Can you post it please

[@1997katielouise]

Icing a square cake please!😊

[@sarahhuckle7178]

What height are the tins you use???

[@karenbeattie6805]

how would you place the dowel if you wanted to stack cakes all to one edge not central?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Simply place the dowel through the centre of where you want to place the tiers on, and the straws around it!

[@allisonjamesestateshomes3353]

How much can this 3 tiered cake feed

[@mollyjones2922]

How would you stack a buttercream cake in which each tier had a different color of buttercream?

[@grandmasadvice4791]

How many people will that cake feed

[@GeorgiasCakes]

4, 6 and 8 inches feed 70 people. You can see more about my portion guides on my wedding cake tutorial!

[@AwonBtz]
