Love all buttercream cakes. If I did this I would make several buttercream roses for the top instead of real flowers!! I love all the pleated texture on this cake!! Thank you for taking time to show us how to do this!!! You are the BEST!!!
Patricia Patane apparently there are no videos made by John anymore. It was a great meticulous video about how to "built" a wedding cake, I looked for it on my "RUclips history" but it disappeared. Maybe Vanessa can help you, she has other two videos about that subject. Good luck!
I enjoyed this tutorial SO much. It inspired me to do a multi-colored pleat Thanksgiving themed cake topped with fall leaves and acorn accents. Thanks!!
Oh I love this idea...I never really worked with buttercream as a cake cover (I use fondant mostly) but these tutorials of yours make me soooo excited to try these. It's actually great, because I find even if people love the look of a fondant cake, they don't really like to eat it. I hate to see the fondant I kneeded, rolled and smoothed with care being thrown away cause people pick it off the cake :D
This is my absolute favorite cake and just with buttercream!!! Yippee! Thank you for all your amazing videos. I've learned and continue to learn great techniques from your vids all the time 🌟💗🌟💗👍
I absolutely love this technique! I tried it on my sister's birthday cake and it came out beautiful except the pleats weren't straight like yours. i wished that it did but i was still happy with the results, thank you for sharing this!!
wow this is cool I will subscribe so that I keep improving at my cake designs. I did a roset cake on heart shape from your tutorial ans my client loved it. keep it up. is there another nozzle we can learn from I see you really love the 104 tear drop. hahahaha. I actually ordered a set from the UK so I have all the numbers. am actually a baker and decorator from Zambia africa. Mercy. xoxo
this was a great video. Ya'll did a very good job explaining as well as demonstrating. i still stick with single tiers (two or three layers) but i definitely want to try the pleats. I may venture into fresh flowers or just use some buttercream roses. i still need to learn some other large buttercream flowers. About using fresh flowers, how do you make sure the flower itself doesn't "contaminate" your cake? (i.e. pesticides, bugs or other things that may have been on them at some time)
joyfuljaj Knowing your supplier, Darlene gets them straight from the grower, stick with safe non toxic flowers, roses are edible after all, well, when grown for it. Also, using the flower viles to make sure the stems don't go in the cake.
Hi, first of all I would like to tell you how much I admire it your talent! You are amazing! As well..I would like to ask how do you call the tip you inserted in the cake? where did you buy it? Thanks for your answer.
thanks for your share! You are my buttercream cake'teacher. I have a question, which for tip did you use in this video? Thank you very much, i love cake style :*
Hi, love this tutorial.. thank you so much. Just a general question about buttercream though as I have never used it for decorating a cake. Do buttercream covered cakes have to be refrigerated all the time.. or can they be left out like fondant covered cakes (which is what i am used to making)? I am going to make my daughters engagement cake and she wants the rustic messy look with sugar flowers. So if I put the cake in the fridge I am scared the sugar flowers be ruined and if I leave the cake out I am scared the buttercream will melt. I would love your advice. Also I have never seen any one cover a cake with royal icing mixture, could I use this over a buttercream crumb coat? thanks so much for your help, Maryann
Maryann Delicata Hi, You don't have to keep it in the fridge if the room temp is cool, or air conditioned around the clock. If you ened to place it in the fridge, don't attach the flowers. I always attach flowers at the venue anyway, as driving a cake with flowers down our streets would not end well lol. Some people use royal icing, but I can't say i've tried. Best of luck. Love to see pics!
Hi there. Just wondering where the cut, fill and crumb coat playlist has gone? The link in the description takes you to an empty playlist! I remember watching one that was excellent where you trimmed down the sides of the cake (I think you talked about how that made the cake when sliced look very uniform). I'm pretty sure I found it from watching this ruffle cake video. Anyway, it was a great video that I watched from time to time just to refresh, so I'm wondering where it is??!!
I would like to know the name of the thing you inserted in the cake to hold the flowers? and where i can find it? thanks in advance I admire your work you are so talented thanks for sharing your videos!
looove your videos...I personally prefer real flowers to sugar flowers but I dont think the flower holder is available in my country....any suggestions on how can I improvise?
Ushma Gandhi Thank you. Well, you could make a hole with a dowel and then wrap something like cling wrap around the flowers tightly, then place it in. :)
Gorgeous cake, thank you for sharing! Random question: was this cake actually made for someone's wedding or function? if not, what did you do with it?? :)
Helen Lee The one in the video was not, and we just gave it to a friend. But the one in the thumbnail was a real photo from a photographer at a wedding we did. Again flowers by Darlene.
How do you get the bottom colour. Love it. Brown goes pink/skin colour before you get the brown. Ivory americolour get's almost to this colour but it's not strong enough to get this dark????
I am so happy I found you here! Excellent videos! Thank you so much for sharing =) Regarding the fresh flowers, would you know how long they stay fresh looking after they are put on the cake/ taken out of the water?
Thank you:) there is a question I could not get rid of while watching - How one can make those flowers look fresh after some time of being without water?? thank you in advance :)
i am comfortable with the safe insertion of fresh flowers into this buttercream cake. Would you be able to do a tutorial on arranging fresh rose flowers cascading down a small tiered cake. i hv a task to create on a 2 tier 6 and 8 inch cakes but i searched n searched online for a tutorial but disappointed i cant find not one with fresh flowers. Thank you :)
+SanctuaryHut It is really hard to find flower videos. I'd love to do another, just finding the time to get Darlene again, since it's getting busy this time of year. Will keep you posted.
Cakes Cupcakes Yes, they are fine. Coming from a florist, it is safe to use. But there are some flowers that are poisonous, so if you are worried, you can look it up online.
Hello! Can you tell me a perfect buttercream recipe? I'm from Hungary, and here we all decorating cakes with whipped cream, but with buttercream icing the cakes looks amazing! I just can't find a good recipe. :\
Yeah! Someone finally teaches me how to appropriately use fresh flowers! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

OMG! that work requires a lot of patience.
+Lamasafa Denna Yes, but totally worth it.
That is a beautiful cake. I was wondering how you made the taupe color for the buttercream? Thanks. :)
For all those who asked, the insert was a flower VIAL not vile (probably why we couldn't find it online), the Wilton brand labeled them flower spikes.
thanks for your share! You are my buttercream cake'teacher. I have a question, which for tip did you use in this video? Thank you very much, i love cake style :*
she used tip #104 aka the petal tip ☺
Trabalho muito lindo!

+Natalie Brayton It's chocolate brown, ivory a tiny amount of black.

kimmeee1 It's in the materials list PDF. Just check the description and you'll find it. xo
Cake Style Thanks so much. I may have to re-watch your vid's and take a look at all the materials list....oop's.
Haha, I know, it's kind of unusual to have PDF's but they have tips and tricks, even templates for some things. Worth a look . xo
Please tell which cake recipe did you use for the cakes?
I am so happy I found you here! Excellent videos! Thank you so much for sharing =) Regarding the fresh flowers, would you know how long they stay fresh looking after they are put on the cake/ taken out of the water?
Marie Gonzales-Molina Just a few hours, maybe up to 8 hours, depends on the type of flower though. Lillies, an hour or two only. Roses last a while.
Cake Style Thank you so much!
