Thank you sooooooo much ❤️❤️❤️

[@anneperryman-mcdonald5667]

To trim the sides I normally rest a slightly smaller cake board on the top of the cake and slide the knife around it.

[@joladeademosu5233]

How do you prepared the butter you're rubing on the cake?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

Equal ratio of margarine and icing sugar beat together until fluffy and spreadable on the cake

[@DineWithJynaDiva]

[@OmotundeThompson-ex9wf]

Very nice n neat job......well done....is d sizes 10 8,6?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

Yes, correct

[@fimiesdessertsville]

sorry 12,8 and 6

[@blessednj]

Well done. Please do you wrap your cake immediately after you removed it from pan while it is still hot?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

Thanks a lot , i dont wrap immediately, i was allow it to cool for like 4hrs then wrap and put in the freezer

[@marieclinton4117]

I do this SOMEtimes but for the most part I agree with the baker here. In my opinion some cake types should be cooled the orthodox way….on a wire rack. At least for a bit. Steam is ‘poison’ to the delicate (should be) Cake crumb. Especially some ‘oil based’ applications like Red Velvet or Carrot Cake. These cake types (depending on the oil ratio) can become dense or gummy. My thinking is cakes (especially these) are already heavy in respect to fat. If you wrap hot, you sweat them and can make them heavi👉🏽 ER. I prefer fluffy as possible cakes. Wrapping hot cakes can demolish this although it may keep them moist. 🤷🏽‍♀️I’m greedy in my desires in that I prefer a MOIST annnnd Fluffy outcome.

[@thevoice_online]

Thanks for sharing.. I observed that you are not going round the cake when trimming as most video I've watched. Rather you trim on a spot while you gradually rotate the turn table. Is that the trick or technique.? Ps ill need your reply on this. Thanks

[@fimiesdessertsville]

different techniques like i mentioned in the video, but this particular technique works for me

[@chidifavour1260]

Ma'am please what is that surface at the bottom of the cake when removed from the pan called?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

The cake flip side

[@NwamakaHappiness]

What are the sizes of the cake?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

The sizes are 12inches, 8inches and 6inches

[@thecklamassesa1425]

Hi! After baking cakes do you keep them in a freezer or refrigerator?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

i put mine in the freezer and i work on them immediately if working on whipped cream cakes but i wait for about 4hours if working on fondant cakes

[@ngoziumejiaku9729]

Freezer is the best so that it can block

[@sha-shababes1302]

Please ma do you measure your batter before baking?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

YES I DO, I HAVE A VIDEO ON THAT

[@sha-shababes1302]

Okay thank you for your response...I asked because your cakes are of same sizes and height too..love love

[@emeliaaddi9460]

Thank you ma please with wedding cakes,when can you start to decorate with fear of the cake not going bad.Can one used flavors aside fruit. Cake

[@fimiesdessertsville]

if you are going to use any cake asides fruit cakes, kindly ensure you notify the bride and groom to consume within 2days..

[@fimiesdessertsville]

And if only a well baked and well preserved rich fruit cake you can start decorating as early as 5 days prior to delivery day

Ma please if you freeze a cake for buttercream, won't it sweat

[@fimiesdessertsville]

You can work on it immediately but do not refrigerate after you have worked on the cake

[@cicconembakop5185]

@@fimiesdessertsvilleDoes it mean after you crumbcoat the cake I can’t still put it in the fridge?Because my Swiss meringue buttercream sweats a lot

[@bernicewesley7706]

Pls madam if u finish baking a cake how do you keep it till the nxt day to work on it . Am asking this because my cakes normally become hard the next day that i ll be ready to to work on them

[@fimiesdessertsville]

i put all my cakes in the freezer and i work on them when i am ready...hope this answers your question

[@southerngirlchef5886]

Are you working with a cake straight from the freezer?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

Yes I am

[@milkahkiarie5263]

Why does the cake looks so hard?

[@fimiesdessertsville]

Because it was kept frozen before trimming out to ensure a smoother result .. cheers
