How do I measure 1/2 of a cake mix I only need half of the cake mix bag
As an experienced home bread baker I can tell you that I'm just thrilled with your vast knowledge that you share so willingly......I'm going to bake my own wedding cake and your tips are going to help me bake the perfect cake! YAY!!!!! Thank you so much!!!! I'm going to watch every video you have lol.
Col! This is wonderful! Congratulations on your wedding! Do you know what design you're going to do?
@@KarolynsKakes it will be a winter theme, semi-naked red velvet cake. (following your recipe and also ordered Lorann's Red Velvet to add) I'm going to bake a practice cake or two lol. If it's ok I'll take a picture of the finished cake and post it here.....well, maybe, I'm not even sure how to do that. I'm also making snowman and bride cake topper using your marshmallow fondant recipe. We're both older, so I guess maybe not a traditional wedding cake so to speak, but I just know it's going to be delicious and that's what I want people to remember :)
@@KarolynsKakeswhat size cake fat dadio cake pan you using is it 12x2 or 12x3
Don't worry about repeating yourself and sounding like a broken record because it's information I never heard before and more than likely will need to be reminded of. Thank you so much for sharing.
You're right! Thanks for that
I came to RUclips to see if I can learn how to bake a cake. I’m throwing my daughter a 24th surprise cookout on a tight budget and I can’t buy a cake for hundreds and I saw your videos. I am going to trust everything you said to do💕
That is awesome! Let me know how it turns out, you got this!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I'm 70 years old...a pretty good baker but your video tips will make me even better at my tender age.. lol! Keep up the great work! I'm a new fan!
I love this! You're welcome honey! 💜🙏
You are a great inspiration for home bakers. God bless you.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! YOUR STUFF JUST POPPED UP when I was looking for edible printers! I recently just got into learning how to cook and now I'm really wanting to also learn the art of baking. You give really great advice and instruction in your videos , very inspiring! Thank you so much.
Lindsay! You're welcome! I really need to learn how to cook too. Although I plan on becoming a billionaire so I can hire someone to do that for me LOL
Congrats on your milestones! You're absolutely amazing and all your videos are SO helpful! Appreciate you bunches!
Thank you honey!!🥰🥰
@@KarolynsKakes how many box of cake mix for a 14 inch cake pan
I made my granddaughter a cake for her birthday using the stencils. It turned out very nice. I'm not a professional baker; I took a cake decorating class about five years ago just to have some fun. Thank you soooo much for sharing your recipe and information!
You’re welcome Tonya! ☺️☺️
Karolyn, I’m just starting to bake cakes at the ripe age of 57, I’m thinking retirement gig but anyway I absolutely love and thank you for sharing your knowledge. Love, love your personality keep being authentically you. Amy
I love your videos! I just did a naked wedding cake for my daughter in law's sister. I was so nervous because I am no way a professional. I have been baking since I was 7 years old and love learning more techniques/tips. It was a blessing that I came across your videos. The cake came out beautifully. I am now a new subscriber!
Thank you Theresa! I love making naked / semi-naked cakes. They are great to help you learn without the stress of tons of decorating.
This cake turned out absolutely amazing!!! I was so nervous about only having one flower nail to use for even baking and my cake did crown quite a bit but with the excess we created the most delicious cake pops with (thanks to your suggestion). You are such a gem to share your recipes and step by step instructions! Thank you SO much!!!
Yessss!! This makes me so happy, I'm so glad it turned out for you! 🙌
Did you use two cake pans
Barely finished first vid and just subscribed! I’m a new baker and won’t be making cakes of this magnitude for some time but I can’t tell you’re a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for what you do
Yay!! Thank you for subscribing! So excited for you to learn all the fun cake stuff! Are you just doing cakes or do you want to bake other things (cookies, macarons, etc) as well?
Thank you for your help! I had my first cake order that required me to use a 12” round cake pan! Your information and recipe helped me successfully complete her order and she LOVED it!
Blessings to you for sharing your knowledge with the world! ❤️
I'm so glad I was able to help you! 😊
Please what measurement should I use for a 12” cake recipe. I’m baking my first order by the weekend and I don’t know how to properly gushed the measurements. Thank you
@@somachiajoku1644Everything was explained in the video, with links to more in-depth details for particular steps/procedures. Re-watch the video for great explanations to any of your questions. I always come back and re-watch the video(s) right before (and/or during) completing a process that is new to me. Karolyn explains and shows tips very well! Good luck with your cake! 🙂
Thank you so much for sharing! I truly love and admire your Channel! Keep going! Many blessings!
Thank you so much, I appreciate the words of encouragement 😊
Thanks so much for your videos. I’m a new subscriber to your channel and I love the way you explain everything to us. I just started baking cakes on a regular and everyone says they love my cakes but there’s a lot I still don’t know. So thank you cause I’m just one video I’ve learned so much from you!

I bake and sculpt cakes love love your videos. Thanks
Sandra, thank you!! I admire you, I wish I could sculpt cakes!
Wow. Wrapping a hot cake and putting it in the freezer. TOTALLY counter to what I learned but I’m going to try it!! Dang…what a time saver. Baking large cakes longer at 325 degrees is a must. And I’m going to try your cake recipe. Good thing my former co-workers like being Guinea pigs! THANK YOU, once again for all your tips and experience sharing❤
Hey Carolyn! Co-workers are the best taste testers, that's what I did in the beginning! 😂
Interesting technique with the nails and how you trim your cakes. Good job! I love CAKE and it looked delicious!

@@futuristics444 Thank you!!
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for this video. I am doing my sister's wedding cake at the weekend and have never done anything so big. Cake for 150 anyone?! 🙈 I was so intimidated when my 12" cake pan turned up. I read all kinds of conflicting advice and then I found your video. Thanks to your tips and advice, I produced the most perfect carrot cake I have ever baked. It is perfectly level, evenly baked and doesn't even need trimmed! The towel is a game changer that I will use in other bakes. Thank you for being so down to earth and for your fantastic videos. Have a great day x
This is wonderful Catherine!! So glad this technique worked for you. Good luck with it, that's a huge cake you're making!🙌
@@KarolynsKakes the wedding was beautiful and the cake was amazing! It did indeed feed 150 with some left over because it was MASSIVE! Thanks so much again for your help xx

I haven’t even started my baking journey, but I already feel like a pro after watching all of these videos. I can’t wait to make this a side business.
This is great! That's how it started for me, it was a side thing that became my main gig. Wishing you the best of luck!
Just curious - are you saying that you have no baking experience or no professional baking experience? Either way, you are very brave and I wish you good luck on your venture! I would love to consider a baking business, but I’m a but I’m not that courageous.
Edited to add one sentence.
Your channel is amazing xx
Thank you honey, I appreciate you! ☺️

I love your videos. I’m a cake eater not a cake seller, and just want to master a beautifully decorated 9x13 cake. 😂 Nobody does these though 😕. It would be easy for me to transport when I visit family 3.5 hours away.
Thank you! Yeah, with a long ride like that, a sheet cake would definitely travel best.
I just want to come on here to say thank you for taking the time to make these videos! I have learned so much from you!!! You are appreciated ♥️

Thank you so much Mrs. Karolyn, love watching your video I always take notes on each video you do! Also for for the batter chart do you mind adding cupcakes to the list? If possible
They are on the chart!
It’s at the bottom of the list
1/3 makes 12, 2/3 makes 24, 1 makes 36 ☺️☺️
@@KarolynsKakes oh wow, lol I didn’t see it! Yet again I’m on mobile lol.
@@ODY0319 yeah for some reason it doesn’t look right on mobile 🤦🏻♀️
@@KarolynsKakes do you do Square cakes? I wonder if the batter chart will work on different size cake pans
@@ODY0319 The batter amounts will vary slightly. I don't really do square cakes, they take a lot longer (for me, at least) to do because it's a lot of work to get the edges sharp and at perfect angles. I charge significantly more for square cakes and most of the time, people opt for round.
Hello Karolyn I love your videos and subscribe immediately. Thank you very much for your tips! Does the mix have to be the super moist packs or the ordinary box mix please and thank you?
Thank you Carla! I only see the Betty Crocker Super Moist ones in the store, so that's the ones I get. I don't think I've ever seen boxes that don't say that!
Solo una recomendación en el lavadero siempre vas a tener bacterias asi lo limpies mucho, a tener cuidado,,,por lo demas me encanta tus tips de pastelería, saludos
Thank you so much, I have learned so much from watching your videos. Only thing, I don't buy box cakes, it's very expensive in South Africa, do you have a recipe from scratch for a cake for the big cake tins. ❤️
U're the best
Thank you, but I would like to know what you sprayed on the cake to keep the moisture.
It's called simple syrup! I explain it at 16:10 in the video 😊
Thanks so much for this video I learnt some tips . Please can butter replace sour cream ? If yes anything else to add to a butter recipe ?
I never have put butter in this recipe, so I'm not sure how to change everything.
If you don't want to use sour cream, then I would start by replacing the milk with buttermilk. And then add 1/2 cup butter and see how that turns out. However, like I said, I never have done that so I'm not sure about the result you'll get!
You are a genius !!! Now I know who to come to when I need cake advise. I have 2 questions. If I wanted to use white cake mix, would I have to use 4 egg whites, or more? And secondly, how would I size up from a 12" cake to a 14" cake using your recipe...🤔
I don’t make white cake just because I like having yolks in my batter. I’ve heard that people do 4 egg whites instead of 3 whole eggs. But I don’t want to give you bad advice so you’ll want to double check before you try!
And for a 14” pan, you would need slightly more batter. I rarely make cakes that big, but in the past, I believe I have used 3 batches in a 2@ high pan. (There may be some left over.)
I hope that helped!
Ok. I'll try it and see how it turns out...😉
There are so many Duncan Hines Doctored cake recipe is that are delicious.
Yes they are!
Hi Karolyn! I really enjoy your videos. Are all your refrigerated ingredients at room temperature?
The eggs are. But I don’t like the idea of leaving milk and sour cream out too long so those are cold.
I bought a 12 inch pan-it was on sale- and a young friend was telling me she wants a Paris themed birthday cake. I thought great time to use that pan, and thought, I have NO idea how to do this! Thank you for this video. She wants a red velvet cake and since your recipe uses sour cream, I'm wondering if I can adapt it for the 12 inch- or just do a smaller round of it for top layer. I bought a small Eiffel tower topper as I'm already out of my comfort zone. Thanks
Hi Karolyn I recently purchased a 6x3 and 8x3 cake pans do you have any tips for baking time and temps for these taller cakes
The only 3" high cake pan I use is the 4" round one. So I don't have too much experience with those other sizes and I'm not sure what to recommend. I don't want to tell you the wrong thing. For the 4x3 pan, I bake around 35-40 minutes using a doctored cake mix recipe.
Thank you for the wonderful videos. I am learning a lot. Do you have a recipe on just 1 cake box? If you baked just one cake box, then maybe trimming the top is not needed? Just wondering.
You can definitely add less batter to the pans. I just prefer the cake to bake a little over the top so I can level the top off. It may be a little weird that I do it that way, but we all do what works for us!
I love your video. Thank you for explaining . I like to do cake , but when I pot that amount of filing in my cakes , when I’m decorating them , or when the sit on a room temperature.for a couple of minutes,
it starts to form a little bulge on the sides of my cakes? How do I fix it?
The bulge happens when the cake starts to settle. Let the cake settle and then you can either take a spatula and remove the excess icing or you can put stiffened buttercream in an icing bag and pipe a dam around the edge of the cake to prevent the filling from bulging out.
@@KarolynsKakes thank you
i will try it.👍🏻
Thank you so much for always sharing your expertise. Did you bake each 12 x2 individually? Can I put both pans at the same time in the oven to bake? Or do you recommend individually?
I don't have enough space in my oven to do two, so I bake them individually. You want there to be enough space between the pans so air can flow around them.
Hello! I love, I love, I love, I love everything about your videos! I love the way explain it, I love the way you make it so easy to follow, I love your energy, and I love your knowledge! And, its sad that you get negative comments. Everyone has a way of doing things. Your style is perfect for me! I do have a question! I too wanna make a 50 anniversary wedding cake for my parents. I do see that you have the white cake recipe/video, however, I want to make a white cake in a 12 inch pan. Are the ingredients that and you use in your yellow cake video the same ingredients I would need for the white cake? I do understand that i would need the purple and white dies as well! Your help is super appreciated!
Thank you Erika! Yes, the ingredients are the same. I do give the recipe in my white cake video!
I absolutely love your videos ! I know I asked on a prior video but on the half and half for spray bottle you mention you can add vanilla is that vanilla extract ? Also when you add the vanilla will that spray be good on all flavors or only when vanilla is not added ? Hope that makes sense lol
I have to make a simple syrup video, I'll do that soon. And I always add vanilla, just because I love it so much LOL I don't add too much and it can be used on any flavor!
@@KarolynsKakes Omg thank you so much! I can’t wait to try that! Yes I will love to watch a video on that! Thanks so much
👋 I was wondering if you had a video in more about cake settling and if not, when you find the time could you please post one. Have a wonderful day!
I don't have a video talking about settling. I usually let them settle overnight (wrapped in plastic, sitting out at room temp, not in the fridge.) If I need to speed up the settling process, I'll take a cardboard cake circle and place that on top of the wrapped cake. Then I'll put a light glass plate (not too heavy) on top of the cardboard circle (make sure it's center) to help it settle faster. :)
Can't help as a learner but to subscribe.
Thank you honey!
Have you tried the French Vanilla , it's my favorite go to and the Dark chocolate fudge.
I haven't tried that yet, I gotta get that the next time I go shopping! I use that chocolate one a lot.
I love your videos, If I have a 10 inch cake, how many cake boxes do I need ? (Sorry for my grammar, English is not my first language but I LOVED your techniques)
You’ll need 2 boxes to make a 2 layer 10 inch cake. (1 box fills one 10” round x 2” high cake pan). You can click the cake batter saver chart in the description to see how much batter is needed. (It’s easier to view that from a laptop rather than on mobile). I hope that helps!
@@KarolynsKakes
Thank you so much 💓 💗
Thank you for sharing your techniques. Do you place flower nails in your 8" and 10" cakes as well?
Yes I do! For cakes 10” and smaller, I just use 1 nail in the center of the pan.
@@KarolynsKakes thank you for your reply ♥️. Does it matter the size of the nail?
@@annatarvin3979 I’m my experience, size of the nail doesn’t matter
@@KarolynsKakes thank you so much for your response. I hope you know you are a great help and I love your tutorials/videos. 😊
Hello thank you for sharing
As you said you are making these cake for next weekend wedding
So can you can I keep for longer and how long
Waiting for your reply plz🤗
I made these about 3 or 4 days in advance, I don't remember exactly! I iced them and kept them in the fridge for a few days until the wedding.
Throwing away the cut outs OoOuch! The pain I've felt. 😿 however I love how you don't waste the paper wrap
I'm definitely going to try the no butter no oil recipe- using cake flour.
Let me know how it turns out!
Thank you THANK YOU THANK YOU, for that video explaining and giving ideas of prices,at least an idea is an idea,, something helps specially for people like me who don't have the experience you have , I enjoy soooo much watching you doing what you do best awesome doing cakes,, I want to know if there's a way to send you pic of the cakes 🎂 I made... so sorry I'm so excited forgot to let you know I'm new in your page my name is Yolanda lived upstate NY , looking forward to learn more from you,, take care and good look always,, GBU...

Hi I am about to bake a large cake and your video as always come to the rescue😊, I notice your oven has a vent so is mine and I am wondering if your bake your cakes with the vent on or off? Thanks for all your tutorials ❤️
Awwww yayyy!!
Do you mean the convection fan? If so, I bake with the vent off for my doctored mix cakes and I use the convection fan for things like pound cakes.
@@KarolynsKakes thanks for your answer and yes the convection fan mode is what I was wondering, now I know, I really appreciate your tutorials 🤩☺️👍🏻have and excellent day!!!
Karolyn, is it alright to let the filled cake settle in the fridge?? I have a 12” 2 layer cake I have to make within the next day or two and I’m a bit nervous. The recipe I’m using is for a 6” 3 layer, so I have to figure out how to multiply it to fill two 12” layers. It is a scratch recipe. The cake is a white cake with a raspberry filling and a meringue based buttercream.
I've personally never let a cake settle in the fridge. If you want to speed up the settling process, wrap it up in plastic wrap after you fill it and place a 12" cake cardboard circle on top, then place a medium sized glass plate on top. Nothing too heavy, but something heavy enough that it will put slight pressure on top so it helps it settle faster. Keep it on there for about 1-2 hours and it should be good!
I have a video on how much cake batter to use for each pan, but it's using a doctored mix recipe. I have a chart linked in the description, maybe it will help you.
ruclips.net/video/EK1oSPHRUrQ/видео.html
i watched this video twice, and i don't think you actually explained the reason for the wet towel. i'd really love to know...
very educational video btw i'm learning alot through you. Thank you! (thinking of making myself a 4 layer decorative b'day cake) Yikes!! lol
You want to wrap a wet towel or bake easy strips around the outside of the pan to keep the edges from baking faster than the rest of the cake. So this helps the cake bake more evenly! (I find that with pans larger than 10 inches have this issue.) You're going to make your own cake?! That's awesome! And you get to do whatever you want so there's no pressure LOL Happy (early) birthday!
@@KarolynsKakes No pressure at all, I'm excited. Thank you so much ♡
Hi Karolyn!
What is the size and where I can buy the same offset spatula you are using, it's small and I'm starting to bake (I'm in a learning process) my spatula it's big, I think that one will be better for me. Thanks a lot for your videos.
Here ya go, it's my favorite!
amzn.to/3WhRayC
How many cakes do you bake at a time in the oven . Can we put cake pan on top and bottom rack and bake at the same time ?? Thank you for all your videos .
I don't like to bake on both racks. It depends on the size of the cakes. But I can do up to 6 at a time (if they are smaller).
Hi greetings from Singapore 🇸🇬 😊, love your video. Just wondering why after filling the cake it's shl b left out over night n not put in the fridge. Hope you can advise tx q
I don't like to put cakes that aren't frosted in the refrigerator because it can dry them out.
Thank you for this, 1st 12” cake incoming…can I ask if it’s 325 fan assisted?
Would we see you make the wedding cake next video 🥺😍
She is only getting a small 2 tiered basic cake for the main cake and tons of huge cakes to go in the back to cut and serve. So this wedding cake isn't something really different than other cakes I've done. Next time I make a big one, I will film it!
@@KarolynsKakes blah it’s her wedding day she should go all out lol. You could use a dummy cake
@@ODY0319 I actually prefer it this way! It's way less stressful and still worth it!
Thank you so MUCH, you literally saved my live jeje, i've a question, How many amount of icing did you use to fill the cake? Sorry for my grammar i'm just learning english, Thanks
I am not sure how many cups of filling I used. But I try to make sure it is a good ratio to the amount of cake. If you have thin layers, you don't want the filling to be too thick. These cake layers in this video are thicker, so I believe I did 1/4" thick filling. (You just have to look at the thickness of the filling as you are spreading it around on the cake.) If I had to estimate, I think it was 3 cups of filling in this 12" cake.
@@KarolynsKakes thank you ❤️❤️
Hello thank you for sharing your ideas
Question in the oven there are two empty trays
Can you plz tell me why or is that make difference in baking 😊
Also you did three times baking for three cakes?
Waiting for your reply
It's so funny because in every baking video, I explain the trays and forgot to on this one. When I first started, I had someone tell me to put cookie trays on the bottom rack to help distribute the heat evenly. I don't think it's necessary anymore with these new ovens, however I have been doing it like that for 20 years and I just keep them there. The trays also catch any overspill that may happen so your oven doesn't get dirty.
And I actually did this 10 times, I baked 10 of those cakes that week!
@@KarolynsKakes thank you for reply and good idea
But for spill I put aluminum foil bottom of the oven
I don’t know it’s right or not
But your idea I liked
I’m loving your videos….is this too much cake batter for a 13 x 9 in cake pan? Thank you..😊😊
I would use 1 batch of the batter for a 13x9 pan 😊
Thank you so much for this video. It is exactly the information I needed. I am going to make my first 12 inch cake and wondered how many flower nails to use. I have never used them before. I noticed that you said you use them in all your cake pans. I have had problems recently with my 8-inch and 9-inch cake layers not cooking in the middle and wondered if it was okay to use flower nails in smaller pans. Do you have a video that tells how many nails to use per cake pan sizes? How many in 6-inch, 7-inch, 8-inch, 9-inch, 10-inch? Thank you.
Hi Rach! You definitely need to use nails in all pans so the center bakes evenly!
I only use 1 in all pans from 4" - 10".
In 11" - 16", I use 5 nails. (1 in the center and 4 around it).
I wrap pans 10" - 16" with the wet towel strips as well!
@@KarolynsKakes Thank you so much!
@@KarolynsKakes Thank you so much!! May I ask you one more question? Do cakes bake faster with flower nails? I am just wondering if I need to check them sooner. The smallest cakes I usually bake are 6-inch and I normally check at 25 minutes. Thank you.
