[@christineun4112]

patricia marie pamesa i like your elsa cake

[@patriciamariepamesa9600]

I like penguin cake its so cute.

[@dawnreinhardt9674]

For anyone lurking I had zero experience with fondant and very little with cake decorating in general, but my attempt at following this guide still turned out great. It seriously impressed my wife, family, and friends, (even if it wasn't quite as smooth and professional as the result in this video). A super late comment to tell you all that you can do it too!

[@sosueme3778]

[@AK-nd9io]

Awww cutee especially the headphones

[@reneeconner]

Tr oll The kids at the party I brought this to didn't want to cut it either, even though it was cake!

[@spmccord]

I approve because no actual penguins were harmed in the making of this cake! 😁

[@lanadrumi5335]

Hey, awesome cake! Would you mind posting the recipe for the layers and the white cream you put in between the layers? I really would love to make this awesome cake this week! Greetings from Germany!

[@beebliss4946]

Beautiful cake! What kind of modeling chocolate did you use??

[@mema]

It looks delicious

[@jenniferlavallee5216]

I was wondering if you had a list of all ingredients/tools you used?

[@UnthinkableTruths]

Love this cake! Would love to see more similar! :) X

[@陳應文-b3h]

Amazing cake! Ur an awesome baker, keep it up!

[@thecritz7282]

This is beautiful! How do you slice it?

[@plumster33]

how tall does this cake stand when it is finished? and what size tins do you use

[@muneezashah]

Omg this is so cute !!!!!!!! How long did this take you ?

[@reneeconner]

Not too long, not counting the cake baking and icing making only about 1 1/5 hours. Which is super fast compared to most of the cakes I make!

[@muneezashah]

yayy! then im going to try this :D i love making stuff that doesn't take so much time

[@silentscream7881]

creative! 😉👍

[@kristihanna240]

I love this cake. Could you use orange icing instead of modelling chocolate?

[@hawkpop5146]

BEST CAKE I LOVE YOU! 😍😘💗

[@cherrycake6334]

[@reneewhitney-rivera2361]

This is art!

[@juanfranciscovega5923]

Estupendo trabajo very nice

[@janetchan7962]

Hi May I ask why you use modeling chocolate to make the feet instead of fondant or gum paste? Thank you! What an adorable cake! I love it so much !

[@reneeconner]

Hiu Ying CHAN When sculpting I prefer modeling chocolate because you can smooth it out so much easier. Also, this cake ended up going to a party for the kids in my family and I think the modeling chocolate is tastier than gumpaste (although the kids did not want to cut the penguin!). You could certainly use gumpaste if you prefer :)

[@Tyediri]

Amazing! You make it look so easy! I'm going to attempt this for my daughter's first birthday in a couple weeks. Can you please let me know how much black fondant you needed to cover the cake? Thank you!

[@EliLee]

so pretty!

[@googleb3298]

Yeah so cute

[@lilyliatzumba971]

love this! thanks for sharing! just subscribed! can you make a lion cake?

[@chayawijy8170]

Hello Renee, I have backed four 7" cakes for a cake project tat my work, but I've changed my mind. They are red velvet cakes and in the freezer. If I were to create this penguin using my cakes I made, what measurements do you think I should trim my cakes. I really like your cake and 👍from me. Xx

[@BcszMC]

I like people who are creative and you have shown that you are this

[@reneeconner]

+Joshulesdoesstuff Thank you :)

[@janyastanleywashington7525]

+Renee Conner you are perfect 😢😢😢😢😲😲😲

[@chickapey]

SO cute! I like how you made the earmuffs out of cookies.. much nicer than a big hunk of fondant. What brand is your cake turn table?

[@reneeconner]

Yes! I agree, the cookies were much better than fondant (the first thing the kids ate when we served it!). I have the Ateco turn table, it's a nice cast iron base, it turns smoothly and doesn't slide around. I've had it for years and years and love it!

[@chickapey]

Thank you. I just love your tutorials. I've been a follower for quite a while now and your work is absolutely perfect and you seem like a very down to earth and kind soul. Thank you for sharing your talent

[@reneeconner]

chickapey You are so kind! Thank you for the compliment, it means a lot... and thank you for following my videos!

[@MysteryBaker]

Loving your video's so thank you for sharing your amazing work x

[@robabaazeem4404]

[@rio9760]

[@beatrizperez7044]

Love your work!! This is an adorable Penguin :) After carving, how many servings was this for?? Thanks in advance.

[@elissawing3330]

[@sassycraftysagittarius.]

aww penguins are my favorite 🐧

[@haleymckelvey7249]

me too this cake must be my birthday cake

[@rubixcuber]

this is so cute!!!!!! :') thanks for sharing.

[@ЮлияСкрипкарь]

Great looking penguin...How to bake the actual cake that inside of penguin?

[@reneeconner]

Юлия Белова I don't have my chocolate cake recipe up online... but you can use your favorite cake recipe (doesn't have to be chocolate) I had 4 cake layers- 2 8"x2"tall layers, a 7"x2"tall and a 5"x2"tall. Hope that helps you out!

[@dinomonkeyrawr]

Question! How many pounds of fondant did you buy?

[@jingjingtan5777]

So cute!!~

[@teensk1]

Love this little guy! Can I ask which chocolate cake recipe you use as I can guarantee,chilled or not,mine wont carve like that?! :-)

[@thomasdunn9468]

Cute 😊would you mind send me the recipe for this penguin cake thank you

[@camiarrial]

OMG I ADORE YOUR WORK!!!... can you help me out? when I use fondant it tends to sweat!! what am I doing wrong??

[@reneeconner]

Camille Arrivillaga Depending on your climate a cold cake will form condensation... in the summer, here in New England, I do get some moisture on the outside of the fondant. Just don't touch the surface and the moisture will evaporate on it's own and not leave any marks (as long as you don't touch it!), as the cake comes to room temp. I chill all of my cakes and nearly all are fondant covered!

[@camiarrial]

Thank you very much!!

[@katiec9008]

What size are the cake pans you use?

[@fabiolamartinez7933]

Oh my that is so pretty

[@Arabella-7]

Awesome!

[@drerikager]

Hi Renne! nice job! Did u buy the regular fondant or did u add it some melted mashmellow? Thx u! :)

[@reneeconner]

+LADY X I used Satin Ice fondant in this video. I did not add anything to it :)

[@drerikager]

Thx u! Have a nice week!! =)

[@katepain3697]

Hi, please could you tell me approximately how much balck icing (in grams) I need so that I can order the right amount. Thanks.

[@reneeconner]

Kate Pain 1200g-1300g should be plenty for the size cakes I used (depends on how thick you usually roll your fondant, I tend to go on the thinner side). I didn't weigh the fondant I used, so this is just a guess based on the amount recommended for an 8" and 6" layer cake: satinice.com/how-much-fondant

[@Blubb0Butterfly]

Wow, this is awesome! You are amazing! :D Penguins are my favourite animals. I wish you someone could make me this cake. I'm too untalented for this piece of art.

[@cupcakequeen0617]

I want to try this so bad! You inspired me to try this!

[@Marie-jc9fv]

Sweet ❤🐧🐧

[@kyliehadfield8291]

Thanks for this tutorial this is exactly what i was looking for... Can i ask what recipe you use for the chocolate cakes as mine are much to fluffy for carving.. And also what recipe do you use for the ganache as it looks very thick and sets perfectly.. Many thanks in advance :)!

[@reneeconner]

Kirsty Livestone I have my scratch vanilla cake recipe published on sugaredproductions.com. My chocolate cake recipe is the same, but I omit 1/2 Cup flour and substitute with 1/2 Cup of good quality cocoa powder. My ganache is just a 2:1 ratio, semi-sweet chocolate to heavy cream. I let it cool to about "peanut butter" consistency before using. Hope that helps!

[@KirrilyWong]

How much black fondant did you need to cover the cake?

[@Jade-yx8uu]

Do you have a receipe for the cake itself?

[@MovieGirlinPasadena]

Gonna have to give this a try:) Thx for sharing🅰➕

[@griegocami]

White size did you roll out your fondant to?

[@reneeconner]

Cameron Griego I'm sorry, I'm not exactly sure, I just estimate at this point. I believe it was about 14"-16" across.

[@griegocami]

Happy Cake By Renee (HappyCakesBakes) Thank you I'm making this for my birthday ... I LOVE PENGUINS... I'm 12 and I love making cakes

[@reneeconner]

Oh it's so cute. But! I don't know , can we eat the flour on the cake ?

[@reneeconner]

Ellie Dương The entire cake is edible, unless you have a wheat allergy or celiac disease, in which case you could just use a gluten free recipe.

[@tranduong4556]

Oh! thank your so much
