USING ALUMINIUM FOIL FOR AMAZING CAKE TECHNIQUE! │ CAKE TRENDS │ FOIL CONCRETE CAKE │ CAKES BY MK

[@sanyaarora8945]

Hey! Great video, but to save ur time and chocolate i have done a technique where in once you apply your buttercream on the cake, crinkle the foil and simply stick it on to the cake with the freshly applied buttercream and refrigerate it or freeze it till its hard and the just peel off the foil and brush with lustre dust :)

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi Sanya! Ohh that sounds like a great idea! Thanks for sharing your tip with us all, you could probably use your method with ganache too :)

[@naziyagujrati1365]

Wanna know ..will ur method work on whipped cream cakes?

[@abaanvlogs333]

@@naziyagujrati1365 cover cake with wipping cream and wrap it with aluminum foil then refrigerate it over night and morning you can remove the foil paper. If you dust edible glitter on aluminum foil it looks different.

Hi MK, I kept waiting for you to say things like "I'm now going to lick the bowl", after pouring the white chocolate onto the foil, or "I'm going to cut this rim off and eat the chocolate". 🙂 Great tutorial and a great decorative idea for another beautiful cake.

When I tried to brush the lustre dust on , it would not stick. For the "chocolate" I used the candy melts and the lustre dust I used was CandiFetti Gold edible sparkle dust. Could this be the reason or is there something else I need to or could do?

[@gf9278]

Stunning! In humid condition will using dark chocolate better option than white? Compound or Couverture have you used? Thanks for sharing lovely tips.

[@CakesbyMK]

Thank you so much! :) And hmmm yes dark chocolate will probably work better in humid climates, and I always use couverture chocolate :)

[@lindyannfarrier8463]

Can we do that design using creamcheese frosting as I'm making a carrot cake n creamcheese is best

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there! Do you mean for the foil part, or the inside layer of buttercream that the chocolate will stick to? If you mean the foil part itself, then I'm not so sure if the foil will come off as smoothly on a cream cheese frosting as I've never tried it before but it may work if the frosting is firm enough. If you mean as the inside layer of buttercream, then yes you can :)

[@lindyannfarrier8463]

@@CakesbyMK I meant using creamcheese on the foil as creamcheese is normally not a sturdy structure.

[@rajnijain0107]

For this design I need to have a ganache covered cake ? Whipped cream Won’t do ?

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there! Ganache or buttercream should be fine. I am not so sure about whipped cream as you need a frosting that will set quite firmly :)

[@wajeehairfan8775]

Did you covered the cake with buttercream

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there! Yes Swiss meringue buttercream :)

[@aparnag3601]

A great video once again! Just a query, while brushing with lustre dust over the chocolate (the second coating), does the condensation from the chilled chocolate prevent the dust to settle properly?

[@CakesbyMK]

Thanks Aparna! :) And I didn't have any condensation on my cake as the temperature is pretty cold here in NZ at the moment, but if you do have a bit of condensation, it shouldn't be a problem - the moisture usually helps with spreading the lustre dust :) if you do find it's not applying properly, then simply dab the condensation off with a clean tissue/cloth and then apply the lustre dust. Hope that helps!

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there! Yes that should work fine :)

[@lynngibb5704]

Can this chocolate technique be used on a fondant covering

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi Lynn! Hmm good question - because it's chocolate which sets firmly and doesn't release a lot of moisture I think it should be okay :)

[@juriahawi2974]

Love this! Tq for sharing! 💕 btw will the white choc hold up in hot weather? I intend to frost the cake with white ganache.

[@CakesbyMK]

Thank you! And hmm it should be okay unless it's really hot - in which cake you will want to make sure there isn't a 'lip' of chocolate above the top of the cake otherwise this will wilt in as it softens. The rest of the chocolate around the cake may go slightly soft but it should hold it's shape :)

[@CakesbyMK]

[@sheetalbahl7465]

Will this technique work on whipped cream frosting?

Hi there! If your whipped cream sets relatively firmly then it should be okay - you just don't want your whipped cream to pull off the cake when you're removing the foil :)

Thanks Tammy! And that's a great question and a hard one to answer! There are a few different factors such as how many layers your cake is, how thick your layers are etc., but there are heaps of general guides that you can find online.

I would imagine if it were more than 1/4" thick, you could heat the knife in a glass of warm water. This looks the right balance of thin and stable. Maybe practice ahead of time to find the right thickness for you
