Speedy Homemade Pasta
I’m very into making things fresh that I would normally buy (ie: pasta and bread). Here is a really quick video of me making pasta. Honestly, it’s no where near as hard as you’d expect and it makes so much! I froze them in little nests and pulled them out when I wanted some. They take about 4 minutes to cook and taste 100x better than store bought. I hope you’re finding things you love to make in your own kitchen!

Strawberry Cake with Whipped Cream Cheese Icing
Will you become my wife
Love you Krystal
Delish!Very identical to my Mom's recipe.❤
How many kgs? What size of pan did u use for this?
This cake was made in 8" cake pans.
This is most difficult recipe I found for this icing, but it looks delicious
I'm with you on the difficulty. Haha. I get frustrated every time I make it, but the results are worth it. :)
What’s the flour for
Just to thicken it up a little.
HI. I tried this and it was really good. Should I not be able to ice the cake fast enough and the caramel hardens to the point that is is not easily spreadable, will reheating it over the stove or in the microwave help?
I usually add a bit of hot water to it and mix it up again for it to soften. Maybe a tsp or two at a time. That usually makes it spreadable again.
Many thanks,@@KrystalJenkinsBakes
My son requested caramel cake again this year for his birthday and I groaned (knowing how many times I've failed at this attempt), but I'm SO thankful I found your recipe this year! It came out beautifully! THANK YOU!!
I love this! I'm so glad it turned out well for you! Thank you for letting me know!
You mean the thermometer is essential to the recipe…..not “detrimental”. Thank you for the video……really nice 👍🏻
I tried your method and it turned out beautifully! It was my first attempt at making caramel too, so you can imagine how pleased I was! I did take mine off the heat at “thread” though. I found out later that the reason it stalls out is because the water content is being boiled off. Excellent video, thanks!
I'm so glad it worked for you! Thank you for your kind feedback. I hope you make it many times in the future and feel more and more confident with it. :)
My sister and I graduated to a layer cake and this caramel icing recipe once again knocked it out of the park. We took a picture this time to share with you. Happy New Year 🎆
Thank you for sending me the picture!!
What size are your cake layers? They look really small on video. Im just wondering how much icing this makes. Thanks 😊❤
6” cakes
The cakes come out good but the greased parchment paper sticks and pulls off the bottom?
I don’t grease my paper so I don’t think I’ve personally had that issue.
@@KrystalJenkinsBakes tried without greasing the paper too, dame problem.
@@timsullivan9135 I don't know what to tell you. I haven't had that problem. I'm sorry.
@@KrystalJenkinsBakes Thats ok, thanks for being truthful 👍
This was by far the best and easiest carmel icing! It's absolutely DELICIOUS! I am a lover of pecans so I added pecan flour to my mix.
I'm so glad you tried it and loved it and even put your own spin on it! Thanks for letting me know. :)
I’m really surprised to see an experienced cook with the handles of you’re pots sticking out.
I’m not an experienced cook, but thank you for thinking so.
Also, it’s “your” pots
Hi. Does humidity effect the outcome of caramel icing? Mine is super sticky
Yes! Humidity is always something that will be a problem. I have to deal with it constantly.
@@KrystalJenkinsBakes well tht is good to know. I was so disappointed in my icing. Last time I made it, it was perfect. I couldn’t figure out what in the world was different. I love your videos.
@@euylbush Thank you! I'm so glad my videos are helpful. Thank you for watching them!!
Yes I like the way you did this presentation, I really think you did it the easiest way to make Carmel icing. I eill definitely make it the way you have done it.
Thank you! I hope it works out well for you and you enjoy it!
This looks amazing! How long did it take you!!
Thank you. It probably took 30+ minutes to pipe it all. :)
Delicious cake and icing! Listen to Krystal though…burning yourself with hot sugar HURTS!!! I did it at the cast iron skillet stage. Just a warning!!!!
I did it once and haven't done it again. It's like a chemical burn. Hope yours heals up well. Glad you enjoyed the cake though!
So sorry for the typos🥴
NH ello, thanks do much for the ipdate. What size cake did you use. Im doing a 10' today, and want to make sure its enough icing. Or not let it get to spreadable consistency and do like you would do a glaze just in case. What do you think
This was just a 6" cake. You would need to double the icing for anything larger. Good luck!
Thank you so much. I did double the recipe and everyone loved it. I stopped whipping it too soon, so it was a little running but it worked out great.
@@kimberlyvinson2960 I'm so glad it turned out delicious! Sometimes it's runny no matter how hard you try for it to not be. :) Mine isn't consistent either depending on the weather and other factors. Thanks for trying it and letting me know. :)
You didn’t have to do this in two steps. You could wait for the butter and sugar to melt slowly and then once the butter begins to brown, add the evaporated milk, stir to incorporate and then turn off the burner and let it cool down completely for about an hour. It ends up being the perfect consistency but still spreadable and able to hold it’s shape.
If you use a larger skillet with more surface area, you can tilt the skillet to blend the melting sugar and avoid crystalization.
I tend to end up burning it in a larger one, but that's probably just user error. :) Great tip though for anyone who only has a large skillet! Thank you!
Thank you for posting this recipe. Many years ago a co-worker made a caramel cake for one of my bridal showers, and I loved it! I am definitely going to try this! I do have a helpful suggestion for you if you don’t mine. I do this and it is soooo helpful. Before you put your first cake layer on the plate, put about 4 inch strips of parchment paper around the outer edge of your cake plate and then place your first layer of your cake on it. Frost the entire cake like normal and when you are finished, gently pull out the pieces of parchment paper and your cake plate is clean and free of any drips of frosting! Thank you again for a wonderful, informative, and relaxing video!
Thank you for watching!
very good idea.......
can you add marshmellow fluff to the icing?
I have no idea. If you try it and it works, let me know!
Very good presentation, articulately delivered. Thanks.
Thank you for watching!
a beautiful cake..thanksf or the tutorial.
Thank you!
How long does this frosting take from start to finish: all ingredients out & measured, then put in pans and start cooking, all the way to ready to frost the cake? Also, I noticed you used only 1 beater in your mixer - can 2 be used? How long was the beating stage in total? When refrigerated, doesn't it get VERY hard? How do you cut it then? Or can you leave it out to cool then cut it? If refrigerated, do you take it out before serving to warm up the cake?
Most of your questions are answered in the video. Each time you make it things will vary on timing. You can use 2 beaters. I just the whisk, which is why there was only one.. I would think it would take 2-3 hours total including the baking of the cake. It does get hard in the fridge but you can still cut it. It isn't like a rock. I would always eat it room temp if you can.
Fabulous recipe and beautiful cake!
Thank you!!!
Are you using self rising or plain flour?? Thank you. Can’t wait to try.
Just plain, all purpose flour.
@@KrystalJenkinsBakes thank you!🌸
I have been searching for the perfect caramel icing for a very long time, and this is finally it! I watched the tutorial two times and had it on while I was making the icing. My icing turned out perfect! It is delicious! I would love to have your cake recipe that you use for this. I have been using a Betty Crocker mix and it is just okay. I feel like with this amazing icing I should do better on the cake. Thank you so much for this recipe!
Thank YOU for trying it and telling me about it! This makes me so happy! Here is the recipe for the cake. It's a little more dense than a box mix, so it pairs really well with this icing! Thank you again so much for your kind feedback! ruclips.net/video/CW2HcUD04Qo/видео.html&ab_channel=KrystalJenkinsBakes
Thank you for the vanilla cake recipe! I will be trying that soon. Do you have a strawberry cake and red velvet cake recipe you would be willing to share?
@@TomTammyLakins This is the red velvet I use. chelsweets.com/red-velvet-layer-cake/ I have yet to find a favorite strawberry cake. As many as I do I switch between recopies all the time and still haven't found one I can't live without.
My gosh! This is my favorite cake... actually it is the icing! I'm just old enough now to know better than to sit down with a spoon and the pan of icing! That was funny! Glad I came across this because I'm getting up the courage to try and make this, after all these years! Lord I miss my Grandmother, still.
I hope if you do make it, it turns out wonderfully and it brings back many memories for you :)
Did you make your champagne bottle?
Yes. I printed it out, cut it and laminated it.
🎉
That looks awesome, thank you !
I tried this and it taste amazing but I burned up my mixer trying to get it to icing.
I'm sorry to hear that.
I never tasted caramel cake and probably will never make one BUT I was curious to see how you do it. What i think is the best of it for me, is: you stayed calm, you did not joke in between, there is no disturbing music, you did not rise your voice and/or talk interchangeably fast and slow, you did not stress, there was no hurrying and I felt that you really KNOW your work and how to teach it. CONGRATS
Thank you so much for the compliment!!
Awe well I hope you try a very good one soon! My grandma made the best caramel cake in GA! The substitute for me (since she has passed on) when I go visit home is Cakes by Sue. 👍
Yes it was the shortest method snd I sure will try yours and I've never ever made Carmel icing and now since I'm retired, I'm beginning to cook more. I love cooking snd now I have time to cook and learn to bake .
I've watched different ones and I really think yours is the best I've seen. Will let you know when I make it. Yes your presentation is the best
Florencestaheli, wow, now this is the REAL caramel flavor.......I live near a Mennonite bakery and even theirs taste just like melted brown sugar..............there is absolutely no comparison with this genuine scorched sugar frosting, .........you must try this.......I have not made it in a very long time but I sure will soon now...........I also used to make this and cook the same way and pour onto trays and cut like fudge.....my kids used to have to take goodies to school to raise money for projects..........this was always a hit and now that the children are grown, they still remember real caramel fudge.......
❤
New subscriber! Thank you so much for Sharing your recipe with us 😊
Thank you for watching!!!
Thank you so much going try making this have bless day
Thank you! I hope it was a success!
Please advise Why use FLOUR| Can CORNSTARCH be used instead
I am not sure, honestly. I didn't make up the recipe so I don't know. Please feel free to use whatever you're comfortable with, or omit it all together. It works for me so I keep doing it.
Pretty!! 🥰
I'm from Mississippi too!! I will be trying this recipe. Thank you
I love connecting with other people from Mississippi. So glad you found your way here! Hope it turns out well for you!
Can we store this?
I always store them in the freezer or in the fridge for a few days
I really enjoyed your instructions/visual for making caramel icing.
Thank you so much!!!
Wow I just made this caramel and it is amazing thank you so much it's the perfect candy for my cake I Also made some tweaks and without the candy thermometer I forgot to buy one thank you so much my lady
I'm so glad it turned out so well! Thanks for trying it and letting me know!
What do you use to make the dip chocolate?
I use this recipe: chelsweets.com/chocolate-ganache-drip-recipe/
Could this icing be used for a two layer 9" cake, or would it be too much?
I think it would be plenty of icing for 2 9” layers
Could I use 2 1/2 sticks of butter instead of 2 sticks of butter and 1/2 a stick of shortening?
I am not sure honestly. I’ve never tried that substitute.
Awesome video! I watch a few tutorials on this and decided to forget it until I watched yours…wish me luck.
I hope it worked for you!
