“Did you guys know my name is Laurie?” That would be a negative. 😂 I did not. Been watching you for at least 2 years and it never even occurred to me that I didn’t know your name.

[@SuperMrsMar]

I love that you care about the flavor, some cake artists on KZbin are so focused on the decorating that they just leave it plain and simple cake. It's that added level of care that makes you stand out.

[@hashtaguhhh6724]

Agreed

[@Esinololly]

so true

[@helenh20mo]

The success in cake making is the taste.. we have a very clever decorator near me .. her cakes look awesome but taste is dreadful

[@zamankwalinkomo5734]

@@helenh20mo So True, As a beginner Baker I always make sure my cakes taste great and the also look amazing, Probably one of the reasons why I decided to go into the cake business was most bakers ( not all) don't care about the taste but they care more so about the decor but I believe it should be a balance of great tasting cake and a great cake design.IJS

[@jo-jo8845]

Kevin's commentary in the background despite as he put it' just the camera man" I did smile seeing dog just chilling on the couch off in his own world or napping.. his ears did prick up with you talked about your sponsorship.

[@KristiTalk]

I couldn’t stop watching the dog too!! He’s so chilled out in the background. 😂🥰 It’s like he‘s keeping his battery charged for the activity that involves him.

[@dietotaku]

i cracked up seeing how triggered kevin was by the spilled pudding mix... you could tell from the way he zoomed in on it before he even said anything that he was upset lol

[@cjrun2422]

This is a great series, however can we do something besides “wedding cakes” ? Like make some other themed cakes. Halloween, Christmas, Thanksgiving, or just any other overall “theme”. lol

[@apweaver3498]

I would like to see her turn the grocery store cake into another kind of cake or cake pop, themed cake, etc...

[@fa99681]

At least it’s better than her star bakery videos lol

[@Friendstoyourend]

what are you talking about? last episode wasn't a wedding cake???

[@shanamcquaig3119]

agreed. "Turns grocery store cake into Halloween themed cake"

[@KelseyKaplan75]

Sweet 16 cake would be cool! Or any super cool birhday themed cake!

[@veronicaarmstrong4469]

How is “cakeover” not already a thing? Love this. I think I would like it better with fall leaves, instead of flowers, or maybe teeny, mini-pumpkins or other fall squash… just for a little color pop.

[@Rampala]

Ann Reardon does cake "rescues," those are the only thing I've seen close to Laurie's makeovers.

[@justinresil3205]

Laurie needs to be on the food network! This would be an awesome challenge to any of the baking shows.

[@nolifedotcom13]

I have always wanted to say that I love how she just goes straight into the video and it starts of with her going into it rather than the fluff at the beginning about what she is gonna do.. because it is already in the title. I really do appreciate that honestly. It's weird that there isnt an intro but I mean, I like it. ❤ plus the cake looks amazing😍 the fall vibes for real.

[@lisazdvoru1660]

I would love to see a breakdown of the cost of materials and time. Like, you said $20 cake... was that for one or both? What was the cost of the flowers? How much time did you spend? Just curious how it compares to the bakery quote.

[@biaancaz]

thats a great idea! judging from the looks of the flowers she used, they were not cheap, the flowers at Michaels are usually expensive.

[@Jessa8891]

That was definitely more than $20 for both of those cakes. The sheet cake was probably $25 and the round cake $20. That's why I started making my own 2 years ago. They cost too much and just look and taste generic. I’m guess they were a few days old so that's why she got them so cheap.

[@CS-06]

@@Jessa8891 usually grocery store cakes are a few weeks old at least, at Walmart a few months old. I work with some ladies that worked at various bakeries and we always laugh about people thinking a cake baked the afternoon before isn't fresh enough.

[@psioncrystallis6574]

@@CS-06 i worked as a cake decorator at walmart and baskin-robbins both, and the sheet cakes you get from both are pre-made at a factory, frozen, then shipped to your local store where it's thawed before being decorated. once thawed theres a time limit before you have to throw it out due to it being too old and dry in the fridge - been years, but i think it was a few days or so if it's been iced (the icing helps protect it from losing moisture)

[@tiffanylastinger3925]

I would say 20 dollars was for one sheet cake and doesn't include the 7 dollar tub of whipped icing she normally additionally buys like she talked about in the beginning and doesn't include decorations or additional ingredients

[@adrijamitra9567]

i literally love the aesthetic vibes of the cake!!!!!!!! and laurie is just such a positive and cheerful person that I feel she lights up a room whenever she walks into it.. and omg your cake-over skills are amazingggggggg

You should get 2 large metal food scrapers to help you have more control when moving cakes. They have been a life saver for me. The cake turned out beautiful and I bet it tasted delicious

Another gorgeous Cake-Over, Laurie! I especially liked your comment about the flavor of the cake being more important than the interior (cut) look. I do small simple cutting cakes for local wedding venue and always worry that the inside of my cakes aren't 'pretty' enough.

[@AskAgainL8ter]

It amazes me how much bakeries charge for the simplest cakes. My sisters wedding cake was an 8” and a 6” tiered plain white with a simple border and then she had the florist put real flowers on it. $250! (Plus flowers) When my wedding came around, it was a home made cake, and it was beautiful!

True it depends $500 could be for fresh flowers or gumpaste ones.

[@cylversprings]

This cake is gorgeous!!!! A quick and yummy filling- use heavy cream and any flavor instant pudding mix and a little milk and whip it like you would whipped cream. It makes a mousse like filling and it is soooooo good. You can also use peanut butter with powdered sugar with heavy cream and a little milk to do the same type of filling.

[@TheIcingArtist]

Trying this!!!

[@cylversprings]

@@TheIcingArtist the measurements, I forgot to give them to you, for the large pkg is 1 1/2 cups heavy cream and 1/2 cup of milk. You can over beat it like whipping cream, and turn it into some pretty tasty but weird butter.
