Yellow Half Sheet Cake by Diane Lovetobake

[@zion4453]

Hi Diane! I just wanted to thank you for your video on baking a half sheet cake. I was struggling with my recipe and almost lost hope after a disastrous first attempt. Your baking time suggestions were perfect, and the cake turned out perfect. The person who ordered was thrilled. Not so many you tubers are doing 18x13x2 size cake. You saved my day! Thank God I ran into your video. God bless you more power!❤❤❤ from California

[@thomasplace]

I'm so glad! it helped. I love this cake and the results are perfect. Thanks for watching and taking the time to write.

[@btellez74]

Hello Diane, I wanted to tell you I made this cake and LOVED IT! I actually halved the recipe. Wanted to try it out on the family before baking it for a church gathering. It was so moist and delicious! Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this video!

[@thomasplace]

So glad to hear that......I agree love love this cake....whenever you need another flavor in sheet cakes check out my other sheet cake recipes.... Thanks for watching and taking the time to write....:)

[@btellez74]

13 x 9 and i believe it was for the same time as the full sheet. I honestly can't remember. I would try 10 minutes less than the full sheet and just check every 5 minutes.

[@btellez74]

Sorry, for the late response. I rarely use my youtube acct. I mostly use my husband's. : (

[@zuseguy2000]

love the video just wanted to know if i use spender instead of sugar would that hurt the baking process.

[@thomasplace]

I never have tried spenda for this recipe.... The only way to know is to try it, follow the correct conversions for the sugar amount... Thanks for watching ☺

[@Nappy2BeMe]

GOD... is so, so good. So good. HE will surely lead and bless your gifts. Ms. Diane, I too bake heavily for my much loved church sisters and brother's. I like giving them pure ingredients whenever possible. I was actually searching for a chiffon sheet cake and your cake popped up in my search on Google 'images'. I said I must open this video because that cake-- the top of it... how golden it is was and level. Absolutely GORGEOUS for a sheet that size. I am so glad I found this. I've used this mix method before on my 'rounds' and I love the results. The flour 'flour' coats the butter which creates awesome, buttery moisture. Thank you so much and may Our Lord and Savior--Jesus Christ, continue to Bless.... your...hands.

[@thomasplace]

Thank You for those kind words..... I'm working on a chocolate sheet cake recipe hopefully I will put that one on soon.... Thank You for watching and taking the time to write....Blessings to you ...:)

[@Nappy2BeMe]

+Diane Lovetobake I will definitely be watching for it Ms. Diane.

[@reginathornton3148]

So I would double the batter for a full sheet cake or make two separate cakes combine them to make a full sheet cake. Baking may take 90 minutes at 325.

[@thomasplace]

This is a 12x18x 2 inch half sheet cake recipe, I generally make two and put one on top of the other.

[@aceofspades8453]

Hey Ms. Diane...I Have A 13x18x2 Sheet Pan...Would This Recipe Fit Perfectly Into The Pan Without Being A Thin Baked Cake Batter Or Would I Have To Double The Batter

[@thomasplace]

Check out the Wilton guide on cake batter measurements... Thanks for watching...:)

[@emilyross7953]

HELLO, MRS.DIANE , QUESTION , SHOULD I CRUMB COAT FIRST, AND PUT IN FRIDGE, IF I CAN FIT , .THANK YOU.HAVE A BLESSED DAY.

[@thomasplace]

Yes, if you do let it sit at room temperature before you frost.....You don't have to it should crust on its own then frost...Is your buttercream made with all butter or a mix of shortening...☺

[@emilyross7953]

it is made with sweetex high ratio shortening, and powered sugar. and vanilla and colorless butter flavoring, just a bit of pop corn salt.thank you im so nervous,,

[@thomasplace]

You will be fine take your time as you mentioned before...Good Luck☺

[@emilyross7953]

THANK YOU !!! MRS.DIANE , AND I THINK IM GOING TO TRY TO MAKE YOUR CHOCOLATE CAKE .BECAUSE THEY WANT HALF WHITE AND CHOCOLATE. YOU ARE SUCH AN AWESOME LADY .THANK YOU AGAIN A FAITHFUL VIEWER. GOD BLESS AND I WILL LET YOU KNOW HOW IT TURNED OUT..HAVE A BLESSED DAY.🎂

Is your cake pan 2 or 3” deep?

It is a 2" deep.

[@patisibautista9397]

Is wet and dry be alternated ending with flour?

[@thomasplace]

I would suggest to follow the video. I have over 600 video's it's a bit daunting to recall exactly. Thanks for watching....

[@sushmareddy7112]

Hi Diane, Can I just double the recipe for 18x24 sheet cake..

[@thomasplace]

I have only made this for one half sheet cake......so I don't know the results you would get....

[@22565Donna]

You don’t need to use a heat core?

[@thomasplace]

No, I never had to use them on any of my half sheets that I bake. Thanks for watching.....

[@Serendipity171990]

I just made this cake and it was delicious! Best cake ever! Thank you for sharing!

[@thomasplace]

I use unsalted but i have used both with this recipe and it works..

[@ZinaAbdi-k5g]

Hi Diane, how many inches deep is the the sheet pan?

[@changeusername56]

loved watching your tutorial thank you.. how did you get your cake to bake without a dome. its beautiful I love the level surface. any tips we can follow

[@thomasplace]

Tap the pan before putting into the oven ..I'm sure you do that anyway but I don't have a problem with this recipe....Thanks for watching...☺

I needed to make a 1/2 sheet cake for the men's day at church and I remembered that you had this video up, so I decided to make it following the step by step method according to how you did it in the video and I was surprised that it came out smooth like you said, thank you for putting your video up and explaining it very clearly. I'm going to turn it into a tres leches. hope everyone likes it .... Thank you again, do you teach one on one or in class if you don't you should cause you are a good teacher. Thanks again

[@thomasplace]

I'm delighted to hear how pleased you were with the results you achieved with this cake. I make it time and time again with flawless results, the recipe is a keeper. I have to tell you in all the comments I've ever received your was so thoughtful and kind. I spent 33 years in a classroom so it's a treat to hear about explaining the steps clearly. Please let me know your results on your Tres Leches cake . Thanks for watching and taking the time to write.

[@haydee1578]

Going to try this cake and your chocolate cake recipe for my sisters graduation party I’m gonna put both cakes together to make a full sheet half chocolate half vanilla hopefully it turns out great!!

[@thomasplace]

Just a reminder there is generally 16 cups of batter for a 12x18 2" baking pan.... Thanks for watching....

[@sarahaile6861]

I was looking for this kind of cake and I am pleased to stop on your channel Diane. is the butter salted butter or unsalted ?please replay and thank you in advance.

[@GailMarie1972]

Can you please help me? My mother in law wants a 12in by 18 in sheet cake for Christmas dinner. Strawberry cake with Strawberry Buttercream. I need to know how many White cake box mixes to use. I have two but feel it is enough. I hope I don't insult you with asking you about advice on cake box mixes.

[@thomasplace]

18 x12 x2-inch sheet pan 13 1/2 cups 60 to 70 minutes.. No insult ....a box of cake yields 4 cups of batter.... I think I should put on a strawberry sheet cake soon...... Thanks for watching...:)

[@Krimpers]

I would like to know if I cut it into 3 pieces and stack them on top of each other to make a rectangular cake would this recipe work for that I would frost in between each layer then ganache on top... thanks Diane xx

[@patsyblahahah4699]

hi Diane, is your pan 2" or 3" high pan, and where did you get it please?, great video, thanks, ❤️

The pan I used is a half sheet I have only used the size of pan in the video...Thanks for watching..☺

[@genevia]

Hi Ms.Diane, I've made the cake using your recipe and it was so moist! My question is can I scale it down and use this recipe for a 5" round pan? Will it work?

[@ericaashley8338]

If I need to do a 12x18x3, is this a 1 and 1/2, or 1 and 1/4 recipe? Just not sure what to do...

[@thomasplace]

The recipe is solely for a 12x18 x 2 . If your using a 12 x 18 x 3 it would not make a difference.

[@alyssafaden4223]

Would anyone have any suggestions on how to make this a lemon sheet cake? My daughters birthday is coming up and I would like to make lemon sheet cake!

This is the cake my mother would bake for her large family of 10, including mom and dad and grandma.....What a beautiful cake and you did such a nice job demonstating making it. I am going to make one for a birthday party. I hope mine comes out as nice as yours....I think I might cut mine into two pieces and make it into a two layer cake..what fun....cream cheese frosting would go so nice with it....Thank you..

Hi Ms Diane, just curious......how many cups of batter does this recipe yield?

[@thomasplace]

It's been a while I'm sorry I don't recall the exact cups of batter..... I know if you check the Wilton website it will give the cups of batter for a 1/2 a sheet cake there. I believe my recipe falls into that group that is listed on that website... Thanks for watching..:)

[@lilymathews880]

Thanks for responding, & I'll check it out....Great videos.

[@emilyross7953]

HELLO! MRS.DIANE, I AM A SUBSCRIBER TO YOUR CHANNEL , AND I REALLY ENJOY YOU'RE VIDEO'S, I HABE A QUESTION?I AM GOING TP MAKE A FULL SHEET CAKE USING SUPER MOIST CAKE MIX BOXES FROM STROE , BUT HOME MADE PROFESSIONAL BUTTERCREAM, MY QUESTION IS I HABE ONE 12×18, PAN FROM WILTON, AND I FOUND AND OLD WILTON PAN A FEW INCHES BIGGER , IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A 12X18 ALSO. BUT THE SIZE IS A FEW INCHES BIGGER , SHOULD I BAKE ONE HALF OF SHEEY OF TJE SAME PAN , OR ONE OF OF THE DIFFERENT PAN ?AND IF I PUT THE 2 TOGETHER HOW CAN I PREVENT THE SEAM FROM SHOWING, BECAUSE I HAVE AN EDIABLE SUGAR SHEET TO PUT ON TOP? CAN YOU GIVE ME SOME ADVICE? THANK YOU AND AND HAVE A BLESSED DAY!🐣

[@thomasplace]

Make sure you put a good amount of icing in the seam where the cakes will join together...I put lots and then push the cakes together as firm as you can allowing some icing to smoosh up and on top of the cake. Then when it's all smoothed out you can't tell. If you can see the seam with your buttercream, you'll see it with your fondant. Also, if you don't use a sturdy enough board underneath the cake when moving it the cake will crack right down the seam!! NOT GOOD!!

[@emilyross7953]

HELLO MRS. DIANE, THANK YOU FOR THE REPLY, I REALLY DIDN'T THINK I WOULD HEAR FROM YOU , I REALLY APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT YOU RESPONDED, AND I DO HAVE A FULL SHEET PAN , THAT IM GOING TO USE AFTEF I PUT MY CAKE BOXES TOGETHER, IM KINDA OF CHICKING OUT ,, BUT I KNOW I HAVE TO HAVE FAITH THAT IT IS GOING TO WORK IF I TAKE MY TIME, ONE MORE QUESTION? on the wilton pans i have one 12X18 new from wilton, the other is a few inches bigger should i bake two of the same pan or 1 and 1 of different, i just didn't want to put one to bake then wait to bake the other? even tho i might have to trim a little? and im just wondering will i have enough room to put a border?i might have to look at the size of the cake and measure.please give me you're advice , its a first birthday, and there will be alot of family from both sides.thank you and have a blessed day!😎🎂🐣

[@emilyross7953]

HELLO Mrs DIANE, SHOULD I JUST DECORATE THE ONE 12X18, AND HAVE AN EXTRA 12X18

[@thomasplace]

Its up to you, I would use both of your 12x18 pans trim the one that's a bit bigger...You could decorate two cakes with a connecting theme.....Are you going to crumb coat the cakes....I think you will have room for a border use a smaller tip if needed. Good Luck.... Wishing a Happy 1st Birthday to your little one.....☺

[@156fish]

I will do that for my son's wedding this Saturday, looks fantastic (the biggest cake I ever made was about 60 pounds for a wedding in our mission group in Italy with about 1400 guests 1989)

Best Wishes for the day....

[@bhartiagrawal4423]

Hi The cake looks fantastic. Can I halve or quarter the recipe?? Thanks in advance

[@thomasplace]

Can't help you there. Suggestion make the cake wrap it well and freeze the rest...

Can you use margarine if you don’t have butter sticks

[@Nappy2BeMe]

Ms. Awesome Diane....! I wanted to give you an update on this recipe I used of yours. I used not only this one but your chocolate half sheet also. Yes, my cake was a whopper of a 4 layer half sheet cake w/ 3 fillings. I split the chocolate and filled it with chocolate butter cream. Between, the layers of chocolate and the vanilla--I used white chocolate buttercream and strawberry buttercream between the split vanilla layers. Iced the whole cake with vanilla SBC that I made in advance. This was for my Pastors birthday. Your recipes for those two (I haven't tried anything else yet) are ... awesome!!! Very, VERY..... nice height on both and no 'doming' on top. But I must tell you that, I was highly excited about this vanilla recipe. There is little to NO shrinkage when it came out of the oven. At cooling-- it was an impressive 2 inches in height. STILL!!! You bake Ms. D--so you know how finicky and disappointing...vanilla/yellow cakes can be. It's almost like they be talking to you saying..."this is all your getting from me so deal with it". This is definitely one for my 'go to baking arsenal'. Very soft, fine and tight crumb even after wrapping and setting overnight. Not dry at all. This is now my 'little black dress' of large vanilla cake recipes. Awesome.

Hi, Diane! Thank you for sharing your video!!! I wanted to ask you what did you put in the mixer after sugar on your video? It is right on 3.09 minute. I have trouble to hear just that moment and CC do not help because the mixer is very loud in that moment and computer doesn't catch it either. It can't be flour, salt, starch, baking powder or sugar because you added it already. So what was it? please help!!!

Check below the video for ingredients.... Thanks for watching...☺

[@KonnichiwaMiyaki]

Natalie Swaim I couldn't hear hat ingredient as well did you find out?

[@natalieztua]

Nop. I made it without that secret ingredient. I think she just divided sugar in 2 dishes on this video. But for some reason she calls it " powder ..." May be it is powder sugar? And BTW the cake wasn't light at all. I will try different source next time. I asked Diane same question and the answer was the same : " Read it" LOL

Hi Ms Diane, Im going to be making your recipie for 12 x 18 sheet cake. however i want to cut it and put in a filling, what would you suggest? and is this possible?

Buttercream - Mocha, Orange, Lemon. Raspberry, extra Almond extract, Chocolate.Jam of just about any variety. (See Jam Fillings below)Mocha buttercream with a sprinkling of finely chopped up Heath Bars Buttercream with caramel ice cream sauce dribbled over it and sprinkled with finely chopped peanuts.Chocolate Mousse, Vanilla Custard, Whipped cream.A liqueur can be brushed on the cake for the added flavor boost. Try Almond, Coffee, Lemon Juice, Hazelnut, Orange, or Raspberry.I have used Davinci Flavored Syrups for a non alcohol flavor enhancer. The flavored syrups come in over 100 different flavors so you could really get wild with Watermelon, Bubblegum, Banana, Black Cherry, Chocolate Peanut butter, Macadamia Nut, Peach, Mango, Kiwi, etc. Thanks for watching...:)

[@terrytharp816]

Ms. Diane I didn't mix my eggs with the milk...I hope the cake will still be good. And I used cake flour🥺

[@thomasplace]

Just so you added your eggs no worries. But replacing cake flour for all purpose I follow this when converting a cake recipe. .Because of this discrepancy, you’ll want to use a bit more cake flour to make an accurate substitution for all-purpose flour. Add an extra 2 tablespoons per cup of cake flour to equal the quantity in 1 cup of all-purpose flour.

did you use unsalted butter and what percent milk?

[@ulaicornelio8507]

How many inches high is the pan you are using? I also have a half sheet pan but mine isn't as high as yours. I believe its 1 inch high. Do you think I would have to divide this batter between two half sheets, making it a 2 layer cake, so that it won't overflow?

Diane could you help me. Could I bake this cake without corn flour as I don't have it in my pantry right now. But I need to bake this cake

[@thomasplace]

I have never used it for this cake recipe, I would suggest purchasing all-purpose flour. It's your call ...... If you are asking from some place like Britain they call corn starch corn flour. It does not work well as baking flour but is good for thickening sauces or making starch puddings. Thanks for watching...

Mine is in the oven now, but as a semi-inexperienced cake baker of any large proportion, my 5 qt mixer would not really tolerate this. I had to keep stopping and scraping up the bottom, a couple of times having to put some of the batter in another bowl to accomplish this. The batter came out with some little chunks not incorporated but hope to put a thick scrumptious frosting on it to cover up those up. ::{{

On this particular cake no it's always been even. If you try this recipe I think you will be pleased. I made this one for my church gatherings and parties and got rave reviews. Good Luck :)

Dear Diane, would you please post the frosting links /ideas? Do you by any chance have a good piping buttercream recipe? Thank you in advance!

[@thomasplace]

I have Buttercreams, Icing, and cooked frostings, check out my channel there are several videos and different flavors. Many Thanks

[@marvaferguson7374]

Hello Diane question, can you add cream cheese to this recipe? Also can I add ingredients to do a pina colada cake from this recipe?

[@thomasplace]

I have always just followed this recipe in the video, variations would have to be experimental by you by trying them.

[@marvaferguson7374]

@@thomasplace thank so much for responding I did bake the cake with cream cheese. Will let you know how it comes out

[@mandybrown8080]

Hi Diane, I have just bought the same sheet pan ,so I can’t wait to try this , do you have a recipe for brownies for the same size. My Australia friends will love it . 😋

[@thomasplace]

I'm glad you will be able to make this cake. If I can make only one suggestion, take your time when your'e putting it together. ( not that I'm assuming you wouldn't it's just a thought.)

I don't have corn starch, can I skip it or is there any other substitute for it

I have only made this cake following the exact ingredients. I would suggest checking out my other yellow sheet cake recipe/video I have on my channel that doesn't require corn starch.

I just used both of your recipes for a full sheet cake and they turned beautifully and ohhh so delicious its a half chocolate/half vanilla. I didnt have the 6 cups of cake flour but I sustitute it for all purpose and 2 tbs of cake flour! Thank so sk much for sharing your recipes!

I love the way the cakes turn out too.... Thanks for watching and taking the time to write....:)

[@krisrtinkoss136]

I have that pan I have one question. Exactly how long did you cook your cake because mine kind of sunk in the middle a little bit where yours came out so perfectly and I have a brand new convection bake oven. But I bake on regular bake. And this weekend on Easter Sunday I am using that cake pan to make my nephews birthday cake he wants a basketball court cake. I read the Wilton guide for the cake pans it tells you how many batters and how long to cook it for. For the 12 x 18 pan it says 16 cups for 55 to 60 minutes 325. Mine kind of sunk in the middle when I opened the oven to check at 50 minutes with cake tester I could tell it wasn’t done and that’s when it sunk. I’ll try again. Do you know exactly how many cake batters in cups you use. Thanks

[@thomasplace]

Each oven is different, so it may take a couple of attempts to find the right cooking temperature for your cake. Did you bake it at 325? I use the entire batter mixture as in video. I measured the batter cups so long ago but I do recall it was very close or exact to Wilton's guide on there chart. Check your exp date on baking powder etc if you haven't already. If I could make a suggestion I bake ahead and freeze , that way I know the results. If something goes haywire I bake another. I haven't had a issue with this recipe it's been tried and true. Good Luck :)

[@krisrtinkoss136]

@@thomasplace thanks I have three cakes to make. 2 for Saturday and one for Easter Sunday. I’m thinking the round 8 inch that one’s going to be dark chocolate cake with mousse filling hulk cake the 2 sheet cake is going to be plain yellow and yes oven at 3:25 but my oven is one years old. Gas I have convection bake regular bake convection roast air fryer and I use it on a regular bag because I was told that the convection bake the oven is a little hotter. So I just use regular bake. Do you sift your flour

[@thomasplace]

Sounds like your going to be busy...Yes I like to sift my flour it helps aerate the flour, which allows it to mix more evenly into batter in certain recipes. Wishing you a good Easter...

[@krisrtinkoss136]

@@thomasplace thanks I have been weighing all my ingredients With my digital scale. Some times. I made one cake yesterday at 9 o’clock at night. I love my new pan. It’s the one you used in your video. I like that it is 12x18 3” deep

Hi Diane! I made this recipe in a 12x18 pan a couple of months ago and it was amazing!!! I was thinking of cutting it in half to make 2 dozen cupcakes. Any suggestions on changes to the initial recipe? Or as is should also work well for cupcakes? Thanks in advance!

[@thomasplace]

Great idea not sure exactly how many cupcake's there will be ..I have only made sheet cake with the batter...... Thanks for watching and taking the time to write....:)

[@kellyivy2383]

Hi Diane! Just wanted to give you an update. I cut the recipe in half and it made exactly 2 dozen cupcakes when I used 1/4 cup batter in each. I tried baking them for 15 mins at 350 degrees but they were overcooked. At 13-14 mins they were perfect. Everyone enjoyed them! Thanks!!!

[@thomasplace]

Thanks for the update glad everyone enjoyed them.....Take Care. ☺

[@erinaforney9022]

How many cups of batter does this produce?
