  • With all of the baking I do, I needed to figure out an easy method to share all of my confections with family and friends that live far away. I can’t believe it took me so long to figure out that I could easily mail cake slices. I was inspired by some photos I had seen on social media of wedding cake tasting boxes being mailed out, and I figured I could easily do the same for my own cakes. In this tutorial I’ll give you tips to consider when mailing (the weather!), as well as what types of cake recipes will ship best.

    In pandemic times, we are trying to figure out how to make a 50th bday special for a family member. Love your real kitchen and authentic presence (vs. all the over-staged IG folks)--including the fridge of kid-work and your turquoise KitchenAid and nails! Thank you so much for your tips--we plan to use them to send cake!

      What a nice comment ❤️ I can’t keep up with the IG bakers, I just kind of went my own direction and am enjoying the process! It’s so funny you mention my kitchen - we are moving tomorrow and I was a little sad to say goodbye to my tiny Los Angeles kitchen (but getting a lot more space in the move) 😊 I’m glad the video was helpful, and I hope your family member has a great bday!

      My twin niece and nephew gave an honest rating of A+ for the chocolate peanut butter, and A- for the vanilla lol! ❤️❤️❤️

    I absolutely love how you sliced the cakes.... I used to think it was only square or rectangle cakes that are sliced horizontally... The video is quite refreshing

    Did you freeze these first or is it just that the type of frosting you used is firm?

      @ChristinaCakesIt  3 года назад +2

      Hi! Don't send in the heat (unless you follow my how to ship a cake video which shows how to pack for heat), ship flat rate or overnight, and I only use ganache or buttercream as fillings! I explain in detail in the video if you're interested

    Thanks so much! Question! How do you keep the cake frosting from messing up from the saran wrap when the recipients recieve it to open it up?

    • @ChristinaCakesIt
      @ChristinaCakesIt  3 года назад +1

      Hi! The outside is frosted in ganache so it hardens meow than buttercream. There’s going to be a little bit that gets on the Saran Wrap, but not bad! I wouldn’t recommend sending in the summer heat! ❤️❤️❤️

      I wish I had a better answers, but I'm not sure there's a great one for mailing (to keep it fresh) BUT you could put slices into cellophane with ribbon, and then put into the tupperware so the cake slices still have great presentation!

      Hi! I think it would depend on your area, materials, and the ingredients and time for the type of cake you are making. I have seen wedding cake slices priced anywhere from $1 a slice to $5 if that’s helpful ❤️
