I'm gonna use store bought pre made cake to practice, then maybe graduate to my own baking. It is very overwhelming to watch, and this is an excellent video. Ty newbie
Before I started decorating cakes, I used my Badger art airbrush with a filtered mask. It didn’t matter about splatter because I was in my art studio. Now that I am airbrushing cakes and cookies in my kitchen studio, I use a large cardboard box to catch the spray. I also have a new compressor and airbrush, because it would be toxic to use my other for edible purposes. The gravity load Badger that I purchased about 10 years ago is still running strong! I absolutely love it! Thank you for this tutorial and I hope you are all staying safe. I noticed you haven’t posted in a while so I was wondering if COVID shut your bakery down.
Hi, thanks for sharing. We are not shut down. We just had to divert our energy strictly to cakes with a smaller staff. We hope to make more videos in the future.
This is a fun tutorial! Also an idea. I’ve done plenty of splatter painting. The Best and most consistent way is put it on your fingers and flick it. You can control where you are flicking as well as not get any on your nose lol
I just got my airbrush and found your tutorial helpful. For the home cake decorator who is just starting (and probably can’t spring for the spray booth you have 🙂), do you have suggestions for how to protect the work surface/area? Do you need a spray booth with a fan, or will a plain box work for smaller applications when you’re not spraying a long time? I’ve seen others say to wear a mask? I’m hoping not to make my kitchen rainbow colored if I can avoid it!
Before we had the Cake Safe setup we rigged up our own solution of putting a small home air filter in front of a box fan with cardboard wings taped on the sides. It's not nearly as good but it is better than nothing. Either way covering your work surface with plastic wrap before spraying makes clean up a lot easier. Happy airbrushing!
Can you please tell me what frosting you used on cake its cream , buttercream or fondant? because your colors came out like glaze shine please must answer as 18 january i have to make same cake for my niece i only bake for my family and friends and its been about six months i started so really don’t know much tricks and recipes
Amazing cake I have ever seen.thank u so much.I am gonna do smth like this and I hope i can decorate like you. P.S.Can you tell me what colour s should i mix to get purple colour?I really can't find it in shops
Thank you very much for the tutorial. What brand of airbrush do you use? What is the size of the nozzle? What compressor do you have? Do you have a link ?
I just got a new airbrush for my birthday... I'm so excited .. I looked up the dollar amount for these special boxes that you are spraying the cake inside of with the fans and their over $700 😳........ I think I'll try a box first or I'll try wish first to see if I can get one cheaper.
This is great. Could you do this on an American buttercream cake? Would it have to be cold or room temp? Do you use the americolors as is, or do you dilute them?
11:45 I know where you were going with this (“Spiral Galaxy” and what not) but I’ve never seen such thin lines on any Hubble picture, no matter what spectrum of light they filtered. What I wanna say is that this doesn’t look like a galaxy but rather like lipid residue lines on your telescope lens 😄
Can you taste the paint whenever eating the cake? I know you use edible paint but I'm wondering if you can taste it like you can if you use cheap food coloring
The airbrush food dye we use does not have a strong taste. It is just a thin layer that gets sprayed on the outside of the fondant. You're more likely to taste food dye when it's a lot of a dark color stirred into buttercream for example.
If you want a different tech for stars ,there's a method called stippling,you bounch the color off a popsicle stick,onto the cake surface ,but always practice first.
Should i let the Airbrushed color dry before piping any design or it's better to pipe while it's still wet. Also what's the best way to dry the airbrushed cake, inside the fridge or roomtemp? Thank u! Hope u can notice me
Hi! It's definitely better to let the airbrush color dry before piping over it - otherwise, the color might bleed into your frosting (or the frosting might slide on the wet dye). The cake should just sit out at room temperature until the airbrush dye is dry. (As a general rule, marshmallow-fondant-covered cakes should not spend time in the fridge, since the humidity inside refrigerators can cause the fondant to sweat and melt. Not only would the airbrush dyes not dry, but the whole surface would be sticky, wet and tacky!)
Hi, you would only use gel colors while kneading color into the fondant before covering the cake. After the cake is covered in fondant you will use specifically airbrush food color which is watery enough to spray out of your airbrush gun and coat the surface.
Shiny could be any of these 3 things: if it's humid in the kitchen your cake will get 'sweaty', if you use a lot of airbrush dye it will look wet and might even run if applied too thick, and/or you can spray the whole cake with a pearl shimmer.
I see they haven't answered. I would not recommend it. as it thaws the excess water will affect the colour, unless they are waterproof, which I don't think exist yet.
I do like it an like ur vid but i gotta laugh bc yer like ok we only need 3 colors. Pink purple black silver green white whiteish yellow blue lmao ty though i lernt something
Hi, isn’t it a lot of color ? I mean this is so unhealthy to put so much food coloring. I heard about putting chocolate and coco butter inside the airbrush, will it be good ?
For this two-tiered cake, it's about a tablespoon of very dilute food color spread over 30 servings. If you're concerned about the food color you could do some research on various brands of airbrush food coloring and their ingredients. If you can produce any good literature or studies about adverse effects of any ingredient in airbrush food coloring, in such small amounts, please send it our way. Thus far we are unaware of any. To be perfectly honest, if you're concerned about health I have no idea why you would bypass sugar to jump to food color as a concern. There is way more literature surrounding sugar. While I think sugar in moderation is fine, and certainly nothing like tobacco, it does seem analogous to worrying about the adverse health effects of dye used in your cigarette rolling paper.
I noticed that lots of people leave the fondant on their plate and just go for the cake, so they don't have whatever is on the cake. I guess they are usually too sweet. This marshmallow fondant sounds good. I definitely have a look at it.
Good work, when colors graduation are changing, it's called ,Value. 👌 Your a nice Teacher. Light to dark .

Thank you very much for the tutorial. What brand of airbrush do you use? What is the size of the nozzle? What compressor do you have? Do you have a link ?
We have a Badger 105 Patriot. The compressor is PAASCHE. I'm not sure of the needle size.

Cool. We'll consider renaming the tutorial 😉
Brilliant!
Tried it. Loved it. Wish I could post a pic in the comments...

Wow! Thank u so much! I'm just a newbie and you've been very helpful ❤️💕
Thank you so much! I will try it xx
Great video,
It is better to use a hard toothbrush for splashing. Beauty!
greetings, great tutorial. one question what brand food coloring do you use?
We use Americolor.
Should I use special colors? Or can I use my gel colors for my cakes?
Hi, you would only use gel colors while kneading color into the fondant before covering the cake. After the cake is covered in fondant you will use specifically airbrush food color which is watery enough to spray out of your airbrush gun and coat the surface.
nice design. I run through my finger at the end of the brush, when making stars, so it doesn't splash towards me.
For stars I usually use a cheap little plastic comb and the stars come out super tiny 🙂
Which machine do you use for it? Could you tell us the model?
Compressor is a Paasche. Gun is a Badger.
Very good
Hi! I made this galaxy cake the other day but mine is not shiny or glossy look. How to make it like that? Hope you notice. Thank you
Shiny could be any of these 3 things: if it's humid in the kitchen your cake will get 'sweaty', if you use a lot of airbrush dye it will look wet and might even run if applied too thick, and/or you can spray the whole cake with a pearl shimmer.
Very nice explained
What brand of airbrush are you using? Love the cake!
I’d like to know the airbrush used also
She said it at the beginning.
What kind of cake wippicream or buttercream?
Do u freeze airbrushed cakes if u do . those your colour run when they thaw
I see they haven't answered. I would not recommend it. as it thaws the excess water will affect the colour, unless they are waterproof, which I don't think exist yet.
Did you steam the fondant cake before airbrushing?
No. We don’t steam our cakes. We airbrush directly on the fondant. Accepts colors well enough.
Hi, can you please tell me what airbrush and what brand of colours you use many thanks
We use Americolor.
lindo trabajo!!
where do i get the colours ?
We get ours from Americolor thru their website. They are called Amerimist.
Yes
What type of paint is this?
This is a food grade airbrush paint made by Americolor!
