Kim's Bad Birthday Cake - The Off Cuts!

[@tapewormrage]

"The great Yogscast bake off", I'd love the hell out of that!

[@SirJorb]

+tapewormrage Well, so long as you weren't one of the judges, anyway.

[@zacharyhuggins6861]

+tapewormrage Yeah A Yogs cast bake off would be cool

[@youbringlightin]

+tapewormrage I'd watch it!

[@oliviagregoire8573]

+tapewormrage Omg could they please, needs hatfilms too

[@radbec1638]

They were going to do one for Christmas 2013 I believe, but they couldn't find a place with the correct equipment to use (ovens ect). Let's hope that they can find one this time! :-D

[@TotalFailsChannel]

Hmm study for exams.. or watch Duncan bake a cake... *throws my books across the room*

[@brodiegavienas-tweedlie8845]

+Zekke i think your missing a n on the end of zekke or not but zekken is yukkis nickname or just zekke and you have a picture of kirto so yeah or just zekke i think its just awkward now

[@TotalFailsChannel]

I actually had this name b4 I ever saw sao, kinda just a weird coincidence

[@SemaphorFur]

+Zekke I had a friend with the handle "Saiyann" who had never seen DBZ. What a dilemma >_>

[@theninjamaster67]

+Phillip Huff that's not even how it's spelled it's 1 n. XD

[@jacebeleren2621]

+Zekke sholl is or the weak

[@ringosis]

Kim you grease the paper so that the cake doesn't stick to the paper, you grease the tin so the paper doesn't stick to the tin. If you do that you can just take the tin out of the oven, turn it upside down and the paper falls out, then you peal the paper off of the cake. If you don't do that you get what happened in the video, you have to scrape the cake off of the tin.

[@barutjeh]

+ringosis the only reason to grease the tin when you put in paper is that the paper WILL stick to the tin beforehand, but that would only require a tiny bit of grease. Baking sheets don't stick to your tin when you bake. Maybe if you leave it long enough to turn to charcoal.

[@adrianavokshi]

+ringosis But the paper already is non sticky. You grease the pan so the paper doesn't stick, the paper will come off anyway. Atleast that's how I have always understood it :P

[@HoboRoadshow7]

You don't need to grease the paper... It is grease proof paper. It's only purpose is to not be greased

[@LiahariEren]

+Dragmire800 You do still grease it, but you don't always have to. it's still baking paper

[@groundcontrolto]

+Adriana Vokshi You grease the tin to stick the paper so it stays in place when you pour the cake mix on it, so the the mix doesn't end up underneath it. Especially important when trying to line the side of a tin.

[@jaffroo6272]

To everyone criticising this video for lack of baking skills, this is a comedy gaming channel not a cooking one!! They did this bad on purpose to make it a fun, interesting video!!! Great video guys by the way!

[@devindiamond705]

Am I the only one who feels bad for Duncan? It started as a nice thing he was doing for Kim's birthday and it turned into everybody roasting his cooking skills.

[@burstofblue1584]

True, but I have to admit, him using his hands for the butter cracked me up XD

[@devindiamond705]

Lol, definitely! Maybe he's just a bad cook? I dunno, I feel like he would have done better in other circumstances

[@someonessidechannel1485]

+Devin Diamond I don't know, if you watched his "Cooking with Duncan" video... Let's just say, from the quality of that "steak", I'm just as amazed as Kim that's he's still alive. Maybe someone should teach him how to buy food.

[@devindiamond705]

Yeah, I'm not denying that he may be a bad chef, but the poor dude WAS at least trying to do something nice for Kim

[@someonessidechannel1485]

I agree and accept that. If the food coloring wasn't bad and non-bake-safe and the recipe he had making more sense (such as explaining pan size and reason for greased paper on grease as well as less-exaggerated cake size), it might have turned out okay.

[@xDreamWitch]

Happy late birthday Kim! Thank you for providing us with entertaining videos, and some merry good laughs.

[@TheNiters]

The height of the layers look about right, but you had no paper in the cake tins, a lot less frosting / fucked up the frosting and food coloring that was not meant to be heated :P

[@raafmaat]

+TheNiters how would you get the cake colored if the food coloring cant be cooked though?

[@MrKoraboras]

+TheNiters The coloring expired in 2013, so I think heating it was the least important issue xD

[@Badgerstaff]

+raafmaat there is food coloring that is "bake safe" its a little more expensive and sometimes hard to find, but is worth it if you bake novelty cakes and cookies

[@Various_forms_of_Doormamu]

+raafmaat by getting coloring that can be baked. The food coloring was just the wrong type.

[@raafmaat]

haha oh well, pretty much the whole recipe was faulty, typical duncan, just grab a random ass recipe without double checking wether its even any good

[@missatralissa]

Does Duncan not know how to use utensils?? Use a spoon or a whisk for gods sake! And, they make BUTTER KNIVES!! *sobs*

[@gamerfan78]

+missatralissa Not even gonna lie I had my sister help me make butter icing just the other day and it turned out better then that. (She is 8)

[@ScrappedRose]

I hope kim does a tour of her new place, it looks pretty nice as far as I can tell.

[@ynki6099]

"if iv'e learnt anything from Lazy Town, its to always follow the recipe" i love duncan

[@BlakeFaeMorton]

Yay! More of the train wreck!!!

[@monkeydude952]

So happy to see more of this travesty. Although, looking at that "cake" does make me die a little inside. Should of done a marble cake.

[@neonmole9453]

I tried to make a rainbow cake in July. I had similar issues to Duncan, so I can empathise with him, particularly getting the sodding thing out of the tin. And the colours were dull as hell. At least everyone liked it.

[@JamieA242]

this video proves that Kim is in fact the reason the cake failed.

[@isobelblanchard4225]

"We're looking for the next yogscast member who can cook without killing anyone!" So, Hannah?

[@Amberwood265]

Kim, those spring-form pans are meant for cheesecake, so I'm not surprised that it leaked in the oven. They are not ideal for regular cakes. Pick up some cake pans and if you can find ones with a metal slider at the bottom, even better. That slider helps release the cake. Great video, buy Duncan can't cook cakes lol. Happy Birthday!

[@fofalooza]

It's like watching a train wreck. Except without the horror and destruction...well, the destruction at least. I knew this would be something special when I saw Duncan mixing cake batter with his bare hands.

What a gent. Often gracefully, but cataclysmically, failing is better than being far too serious about succeeding :)

[@caitlinjoisce7011]

*watching video in room with parents**accidentally unplugs headphones*'FIST SOME BUTTER!'

[@DeathTheKidIsYummy]

I'm going to make this cake properly and tweet it to you XD

[@xXHydroDragonXx]

+Samm Stark is it done?

[@DeathTheKidIsYummy]

No, haven't had time or funds cuz of Christmas :(

[@alanjohnston131]

+Samm Stark how bout now

[@svuppy]

how abut now?

[@Zeldurin]

how about now? been waiting over a year now

[@linkster5564]

if I remember correctly, duncan made a sort of "cooking with Duncan" video where he cooked a steak dinner with potato crisps... soo.. there you have it folks! Duncan CAN cook!.. turns out he's just bad at baking, or following directions .-.

[@charlottepearson4060]

The thing I don't get about rainbow cakes is how to get colour, I have made 3 of them and the colour always goes a bit green so I wasn't surprised that Duncan failed

[@LiahariEren]

It's because the base needs to be white for the colour to work. The mixture is a yellow white, so it changes the colour. :)

[@EllaMuersofNerdfighteria]

Dear Kim: HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY FROM ME I'M SO SAWRY I DIDN'T KNOW WHEN IT WAS BUT NOW I DO *Gives you a cupcake*

[@GatorceriVT]

Kim, American cakes are made with milk. I have actually never heard of a cake that was not made with milk. I do have to defend Duncan, when you make an American cake it is best to follow "all" instructions. That includes greasing the pan, using greased paper, and greasing the greased paper. x.x I also think Duncan had the height of the layers right. Looking at the picture those layers was thin. If he had done more layers with the exact food colouring it could have been a bigger cake. He would not have had enough frosting though. Did he adjust the measurements for the smaller cake?

[@Aenonar]

+ULTRAMA Gatorceri He followed the amounts (roughly) but not the instructions of beating the sugar-butter or eggwhites, that's the main cause of failure

[@GatorceriVT]

Aenonar Oh, yeah. XD I forgot about that when I typed this up. XD Thank you.

[@ohyeahminecraft]

I've never ever heard of greasing both the pan AND paper...

[@GatorceriVT]

Adam F. I haven't either, but I have learn that if you do not follow baking directions you end up with a nightmare. x.x I hate baking. Also, I have never heard of grease paper until now. o.o Oh, well, cakes are lies anyways. XD (Sorry, I have to joke a little.)

[@profitlemon1825]

+Aenonar it's hard to follow instructions when one of the instructions is more unsalted butter

[@PastelMoonWitch]

I made this same cake the other day, my colors were more pastel than rainbow but I got six layers out of it. Though next time I make it I would add less sugar because it came out very sweet

[@MeAuntieNora]

That's a pretty good Solid Snake!

[@SirJorb]

"I'm really sorry, nipple." -Kim, 2015

[@nikbol43below]

I bet Rythian's a good cook.

[@Davidofsmeg]

im stunned to hear of all people smithy is a fan of win, I would have thought trott or sjin would have been more likely!

[@pf6137]

red dye 40 is made out of cochineals and are harvested mainly in Peru and the Canary Islands on plantations of prickly pear cacti, the bugs' preferred host. There, the insects are sun-dried, crushed, and dunked in an acidic alcohol solution to produce carminic acid, the pigment that eventually becomes carmine or cochineal extract, depending on processing. About 70,000 insects are needed to produce a pound of dye.

[@pf6137]

+Msprincessbunny 119 i'm glad i'm alergic to it now lol

[@zarthix4439]

Did anyone else notice how when Duncan patted the cake down on the frosting it made a loud bang

[@khalrivonkvitka-vohnyu1141]

Wow. Duncan only swore twice in this video! New record!

[@ggscv]

I'd like to see Duncan redeem himself by baking another cake for Kim, maybe on Valentines?

[@splinte111]

+ggscv he wont have time, he would be too busy making cake for his own girlfriend.

[@rhiannalee9226]

+splinte111 THANK YOU

[@Fjoeiwkwnwwodkfneemw]

+splinte111 he has a girlfriend??

[@splinte111]

Varro Nome yeah, she's called charli as far as i believe.

[@zombiechicken7114]

+splinte111 THANK YOU FOR BEING LOGICAL!!

[@Desasterific]

double rainbow cake in the sky! It's so beautiful!!

[@steedshows4710]

I'd totally join the Yogscast if all I had to do was bake. Playing games with those guys would be great!

[@ferryvanherk5558]

Letting Duncan do something on his own is certain disaster. Nina looked very cute btw. you go girl

[@jeffox10001]

btw, there is a difference between a liquid cup and a solid cup

[@MichelleMassaMCM]

+Sandriell Actually there is.... that's why in classes they teach to use the correct ones. Just Becuase they have the same measurements does not mean that your measuring is the same. They are styled for each ingredient.

[@jeffox10001]

Thanks for the clarification

"If I've learned anything from Lazy Town it's to always follow the recipe" - Duncan Jones 2015

[@micromonkey13]

in all farness to Duncan, the layers of the cake where thin on the actual cake.

[@Zabrasax]

Duncan and Kim should definitely have a cooking show

[@marjellaharlaar7349]

That hug was adorbs

[@wahlflower3517]

Next Christmas, I'm sending Kim and Ducan some US measuring cups.

[@neyonas4333]

It has all the colors in the rainbow: brown, rusty brown, and grayish brown!

[@tez17]

well done to Duncan for trying its hard making cakes.

[@caprasings8992]

10/10 best cake would laugh at again.

[@GreydeDeuil]

Oh, Kim. I am so sorry. Having gone to school for baking and pastry I could not help but cringe and also laugh for the entirety of the two cake vids you have shared with us. I think you need to invest in atleast a hand mixer, although that couldve been a disastrous mess, if not a more edible cake and frosting/icing. But Kudos to you, Duncan, and everyone else who took everything in such great humour and still seemed to have a lot of fun with the attempt. Would love to see more Baking with Kim vids. One with Hat films would be a blast for sure.

[@lachlanlandreth9069]

Nano's kitchen, all the yogs cook a meal. hatfilm would have a high alcohol content...

[@isobelblanchard4225]

+Isobel Blanchard Kim and Duncan's would be purple!

[@sonicr2d2]

Happy Birthday kim hope it was amazing

[@elderdragonIce]

kim, since you mentioned the burned cake at the bottom of the oven it reminded me that my parents would always put a sheet of tin foil on the bottom under the heating coils so that cleaning would take like no time at all and you just have to replace the foil. You probably know that already but I thought I might say it anyway

[@chobits0821]

"We're trusting the person who wrote the recipe...on a random blog" It's Martha Stewart, Duncan! She's basically the American equivalent of Mary Berry.

[@tobykinny]

15:16 NAILED IT

[@stufartegghead1757]

greasing the tin helps the paper stick to the tin, so the cake won't warp whilst baking

[@stufartegghead1757]

also, i hate to be pretentious, crack the egg into your hand and let the yolk rest on your fingers, and let the whites drizzle between your fingers

[@hobanagerik]

At some point Duncan must have realised what the grease proof paper was for.

[@jimd3094]

Happy Birthday for 2 days ago! :)

[@darkview01]

I would totally watch kooking with Kim. Kim invites the yogs to destroy her kitchen.

[@Miniplev]

Looked like a fun double date.

[@JustMe66666]

BTW Imperial cup is 288 millimeters while a US Cup is 240 millimeters

[@annareichenbach2253]

Happy Bday!

[@commoncece]

I nominate myself for official yogscast baker.

[@djhansen8423]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@zmakoto7724]

Kim, one taste of my cake and you'll forget about all others

[@chazhinkley6602]

this was uploaded on birthday, what a coinkydink

[@Cynddelw]

Kim was separating the whites on that same egg for like 3 minutes.

[@Pottedplantofdeath]

As I said in my donation: "It's a nice cake Duncan."

[@Annaie1234]

Regards to the McDonald's thing Kim mentioned: in Australia our large isn't even the equivalent of the American small

[@Dopameeaan]

This asmr was just too tingly...

[@tehonlyzelda]

poor kim ... poor, poor kim ;-; XD

[@VRmonk]

Poor poor Kim's kitchen

[@tehonlyzelda]

+VRmonk kim has to clean her kitchen ... and let's not forget poor poor duncan who is gonna get more scolding off camera 😂

[@NJ_Gaming]

+tehonlyzelda Scolding... ;)

[@theninjamaster67]

+tehonlyzelda she probably made him clean it up XD

[@tehonlyzelda]

+Nathan Lewis ooh saucy ;) XD +theninjamaster67 I think duncan would have run out of the house by then XD

[@MaerchenfeeGwyn]

"We're searching for the next Yogscast member, who can actually cook a meal and not kill anyone!" I volunteer!

[@EveryoneElseIsWeirdImNormal]

You have a snake or just like snakes

[@Torkkar]

Duncan that's NOT cake THAT is making Bread

[@DauragonC.Mikado]

NAILED IT

[@0meat]

REGULAR ORDINARY YOGSCAST MEAL TIME!!!! RAAAAAAHHHHHHRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

[@allthegames1096]

Just as good as the original video

[@lilypad95]

Happy b-day Kim !!

[@douglascampbell9809]

Baking is like chemistry, anything close/good enough will fail horribly. I had a friend try to substute water for milk in a pancake mix, he got something that smelled and tasted like rubber.

[@thelastvoidknight3894]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIM

[@Avatarbob11]

and once again duncan has sinned against nature

[@jackhaystead4429]

happy birthday kim i love u

[@burgerwolfbrown735]

what happend after the video ended?

[@Sc0ts]

Next year, I want to see Duncan attempt a Red Velvet Cake.

[@TheAwesomeTrains]

OMG. Cream butter and sugar together with ELECTRIC BEATERS. Not using hands. Same with beating in the egg whites. No wonder your cakes failed.

[@lalnablehector1285]

+Naomi Sweeney you can cream butter and sugar just fine with a wooden spoon

[@ChroniclerAether]

+Lalnable Hector Still not with bare hands...

[@lalnablehector1285]

ChroniclerAether yes but Naomi said to use Electric Beaters only

[@Ploofafa]

+Lalnable Hector Hm... don't see the world 'only' there. Point well made, though. :)

[@lalnablehector1285]

***** he implied by using "With"

[@WhiskingUnicorn]

as a professional baker, this video drives me crazy!

[@debbiefisher974]

16:40 that's where they went wrong, they added foot colouring :P

[@TheYoggynaut]

I really like the idea of Duncan doing a asmr video, make it happen plz

[@GreenWolfDen]

Flux Buddies know about ASMR? There's two worlds I never thought would collide.

[@anthonyochoa2987]

I'M SENDING YOU A CAKE NEXT YEAR I PROMISE

[@The_Leeroy]

The last time Duncan did something cool and did it right was in tekkit when he build that moving spaceship to collect thaumcraft nodes

[@nacoran]

I suggest the next time a Yog cooks they do it as a live stream. I can't cook to save my life, but even I could have typed, "Well put it back in for a couple more minutes" when you pulled out the uncooked part, and I'm sure there are other Yog fans out there who might have been able to help fix things a little along the way. Maybe not as funny a Yogcast, but better cake. :)

[@RQLexi]

Yes. That's exactly what they needed. Thousands of people shouting vastly different instructions at them and calling them idiots. That would definitely not just make them stressed and even more confused :p

[@nacoran]

Procyon B. It couldn't have gone any worse. Yes, you'll have some idiots, but you can (usually) spot them pretty quickly.

[@oliverreeves1297]

kim is like making a tantrum about cake

[@lauravturner]

Please do a yogscast bakeoff!!!!

[@FriendlyKat]

So who are the people behind the camera? (The girl and the voice)

[@humbly_bumbly4998]

the blue smarties were taken with away because it was poisonous then they brought it back when they found and alternative colouring

[@DefMettle]

snake impression is fucking badass

[@ChillerThanM0st]

I actually like watching Duncan cook

[@aimlesscrusader3075]

14:34 No.... It's too small!

[@Victoria-ox5oo]

🎆🎂🍰🍲🍲🍲🍚🍙🎈 happy birthday!!!! cake and noodles for you!!!

[@lauravturner]

I am a pretty shitty cook, but duncan has made me feel better about myself.

[@heilsin9548]

[@CountryMusicMann]

The only reason Kim has wine glasses is to drink really fancy Coke.
