I wanted to let you know that I have not been feeling well lately and today I've been lying in bed watching your videos and listening to your soothing voice... I find you so comforting! I love every single video you have posted! Thank you for making me happy!
My first brush with petit fours was when I was a very young employee at my first job and the doctor I worked primarily for bought me a box. I loved how sweet and tiny and one little mouth full it was. I was amazed at how small and pretty they were :) This was a really fun reminder of that. :) These would be so so pretty for Mother's Day!
They are gorgeous, Tammy. When we lived in Montreal, my mom used to bring six petits fours home once a month. They were so special to me! If I remember correctly, the filling in the centre was either a light lemon or a very white cream icing - like that kind of creamy filling that was in those Krispy Kream doughnuts we had. Then, the poured icing, which was not hard, but firm. I never see them except mass produced in a grocery store and those are NOT the same! Yours are just beautiful. Thanks for showing. - roc
I absolutely love petits fours. Never knew it meant small ovens. When I was a child, such were served on weddings with the coffee/tea in Western Europe. But not only this variant. All sorts of small cakes were named petit fours. It was my favorite part of the wedding! Someone else has a video, where he puts the mini cake on a fork and then dips it into a bowl of icing, helping along with a spoon. Which basically means, you do not throw half of your icing away, since it wastes a lot less. Or, like you, don't have to scrape it off and heat it up again.
We made petit fours in my baking and pastry class last night and we used 2 small layers of frangipane with 2 thin layers of raspberry jam then a thin layer of marzipan just on top of the cakes. Then we used the pourable white icing and decorated with chocolate filigree patterns. They're soooo sweet though.
I'm impressed by your outcome! The double-coated ones look like something from the bakery. You did a good job of piping the decorations, too. I think they are very expensive to buy. The commercially prepared pound cake you used looks. just right for the little cakes. It also reminded me of pound cake my mother bought at the grocery store in the 50s/60s - it was so delicious. The sweet brown crust was my most favorite part. I would be happy if mine turned out like yours did; good job! TFS
I'm making these for tea with my dear friend tomorrow. I swear somewhere I've seen a technique where you melt buttercream and dip cake (in that case maybe it was cake balls?) and if the cake is cold it sets up quickly. I never knew these had jam, though. YUM!
What lovely pink petits fours. Many thanks for doing this video. You have inspired me to also make some, but I will make the fondant in multi colors of yellow, pink, lavender, and mint green, and also top them off with homemade pink buttercream, green leaves.
Yum! And sooo pretty. Thanks for showing/sharing. They look more time consuming than they actually are, that is because I will use the short cuts. I just wish they were less calories than they actually are! I can't wait to make a bunch to decorate in fun summer colors!
too much frosting is landing underneath, it's a little messy. here's a tip: work with frozen or slightly frozen cake cubes. stick a skewer in the petit four then dip it into the bowl of frosting (glaze) make sure your bowl is deep enough. twist the little cake around in the glaze to coat, lift up to let the glaze drip off right back into the bowl. hold a fork in your other hand and put the skewer between 2 tines, twist the skewer off of the petit fore from below. now the petit fore is resting on the fork. now place the little cake onto your rack to let a little bit of the glaze drip. ease the cake off the fork with the skewer you're still holding in your other hand. a lot less messy and no waste.
I seen on King Arthur’s site that you can cut the corn syrup back to 2 TBSP and substitute milk if you don’t want them so shear. Love your channel! Your Minecraft cake recipe is my go to cake recipe and everyone always says “this is the best cake”. ☺️
Nice video easy to follow. I noticed that you said you used Gretchen @ Woodland Bakery fondant recipe have you tried her wonderful pound cake with this fondant? I have been following Gretchen for years love her and as soon as you were speaking about pound cake Gretchen crossed my mind because I can taste her pound cake about now wish I had some with my coffee. Thank you for sharing saved it and gave it a thumbs up.
You should see the epic fail version I made of petite fours yesterday. Alas, I will persevere and try your method tomorrow. You did so well! I just saw that you said you read comments and I found that very interesting, hence my presence here in your comment box! Best wishes :)
I am not shi-shi, by any stretch of the imagination. But watching you make these beautiful little cakes made we wish I had a pretty tea set to eat them with. So I am ordering one online so that I can have some civilized time with my daughters.
How funny you mention woodland bakery you are the two baking channels I watch I love to see your channels I have made lots of your recipes I also watched Rhodes bread channel because my daughter is allergic to milk and they're Rhodes rolls has no milk in them to give me many ideas to make for her
HAPPY NEW YEAR YOYO MAX!!!!!!!!!! Hope you are all well & have an Amazing New Year!!!!!!! Absolutely Beautiful lil cakes LoL!!!!!!!! Thank you, Always Enjoy ALL Your Vids!!!!!! Have an Prosperous & Hapoy Healthy NewYear ALWAYS!!!!!!! ♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥
I've been tackling these for my small cottage 'high tea' business for sometime, I am going to try your icing to see if it works best. My favorite to purchase for a treat are from Patachou (forgive my spelling, it's essentially 'butterfly' in French) in Toronto in which the cake is infused/soaked in various liqueurs, so I experiment with that as well ;)
I use a big bowl with my fondant in it and then put my cake drying rack over it, cakes on that, and then pour the fondant over. If you're worried about crumbs getting in the bowl, you can always strain it after.
yum yum yummy,,yoyo...........I cant hardly stand not being able to bite into one of those delicious little petit four....its killing me slowly,..................I love you,you are the most awesomest sugar artist on you tube....everything and I mean everything looks so delicious,that being said,,i don't cook it makes dirty dishes and id rather be in my studio making anything :) * wink keep it up,i live my sweetest desires from watching you..
hi again! i made these tonight, and mine came out verrrry tasty but quite hideous looking! lol.. i know it is because i used very poor quality pound cake. but i cant wait to decorate them tomorrow. thanks for the tips!
Yesss love Gretchen!! and this is a quick and simple dessert you can make at home or for special occasions. May try for mothers day :) thanks for posting
Wow, so cute! I'll bet your Mom will really enjoy them. They'd be nice for a baby shower or tea too. Flavor wise, did you prefer the thin, sheer coating? or the thicker one?
Hey Tammy! Just a random question that came in my head. 1: Do you know what Fondant is? If you do, you should make a lot of cakes and put fondant on them. Please write back, Leah.
Hi Tammy, just wondering how long the poured fondant took to dry. I made some this afternoon and they are still quite soft and I want them for tomorrow afternoon. Is there any way to speed up the drying process. Cheers, Jayne
First Prize!!! Absolutely Gorgeous!!! I'm doing this for sure! THANK YOU SO MUCH! On your vids, I love your to-the-point, no nonsense, don't talk unnecessarily approach! You got my vote♡ What does yoyomax12 stand for?

My goodness. These are too cute, and I bet they taste wonderful!
I am not a cake decorator so did you frost the bottoms or did you leave them unfrosted?
ataylorai1 I guess they aren't fosted !

I LOVE GRETCHEN! I adore the treats they make on Woodland Bakery. I have watched their videos forever :)
Thanks for crediting woodland bakery. Always great to watch both of you.

Simple and easy=yummy, beautiful, and tres chic. Looks very expensive but isn't. TFS a lovely video.

I love the fact that you said "Petit four" properly, and I love "Woodland Bakery" (Gretchen Price)..... Love your videos Tammy!
I'm making these for tea with my dear friend tomorrow. I swear somewhere I've seen a technique where you melt buttercream and dip cake (in that case maybe it was cake balls?) and if the cake is cold it sets up quickly. I never knew these had jam, though. YUM!
i love how you pronunciate. beautiful cake. clean video. truly #1 fan for about 3 years now..
They look perfect!

Very nice, pound cake is perfect for this.
What lovely pink petits fours.
Many thanks for doing this video.
You have inspired me to also make some, but I will make the fondant in multi colors of yellow, pink, lavender, and mint green, and also top them off with homemade pink buttercream, green leaves.
Quick, simple and very sweet I'm sure. Thanks for sharing!

What a great, simple way to make these fancy treats yourself!
Perfect for mother's day!! I want my mother and I to make this together! You are so talented.
You did well love. Im gonna do these for my daughter's birthday! 😊😊
Omg I love woodland bakery and i thought of it when I clicked on this. So happy my favorite youtubers watch each other!
Even my hubby loves your videos. Thanks for another great video!
These look amazing. I wonder if you could use a glace icing instead. They are simply beautiful.
I recomended this for my mom and she love you! She loves to bake and then she is baking alot of stuff!
Love them! They turned out so pretty! Love woodland bakery too!
They look really good!
I just love Petits Fours. You did a good job and I would have gobbled them up!
too much frosting is landing underneath, it's a little messy. here's a tip: work with frozen or slightly frozen cake cubes. stick a skewer in the petit four then dip it into the bowl of frosting (glaze) make sure your bowl is deep enough. twist the little cake around in the glaze to coat, lift up to let the glaze drip off right back into the bowl. hold a fork in your other hand and put the skewer between 2 tines, twist the skewer off of the petit fore from below. now the petit fore is resting on the fork. now place the little cake onto your rack to let a little bit of the glaze drip. ease the cake off the fork with the skewer you're still holding in your other hand. a lot less messy and no waste.
FYI, I *gasped* at the food porn photos at the end. I haven't done that in a long, long while!!
I believe that stocks pound cake is by far the best!
I seen on King Arthur’s site that you can cut the corn syrup back to 2 TBSP and substitute milk if you don’t want them so shear. Love your channel! Your Minecraft cake recipe is my go to cake recipe and everyone always says “this is the best cake”. ☺️
Great video! Thanks for all your tips and real time adjustments with the icing which are so helpful.

These are very cute! I am helping with a tea party and I think these will be awesome for the kids, thank you :)
These are perfect for a tea party :)
I would love to make these! I think a no egg “raw” cookie dough would be a nice surprise to put in the center to hold the layers together!
They look so pretty.
these are gorgeous!
So Cute!!! Happy Mothers Day!!
Wow, so cute! I'll bet your Mom will really enjoy them. They'd be nice for a baby shower or tea too. Flavor wise, did you prefer the thin, sheer coating? or the thicker one?
Good question Liz! I preferred the thin one because they weren't as sweet.
My thoughts exactly! But both are lovely. Thanks.
😆! These are so cute! I've got to try these. Great job!
Thank you! These are so nice! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Those look great, i probably would use something else other than jam for the filling tho.
I Love Your Channel & Gretchen @ Woodland Bakery!! Amazing Work!:)
they look really cute!!
Those really are pretty.
I thought these were just adorable you should do more things like this
You inspire me to bake so much I love trying what you make I
Beautiful work! I love it!
Beautiful. I feel inspired to try this.
i LOVE the intro! these are sooo cute btw and the flowers on top are so cute too! x
This would be cute for a wedding☺
Dghaaaaaa des bons petits fours :3 Ils sont trop mignons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Droolin' all over my keyboard.
Hey Tammy! Just a random question that came in my head. 1: Do you know what Fondant is? If you do, you should make a lot of cakes and put fondant on them. Please write back, Leah.
This looks so good!
The picture reminded me of yokan, A Japanese sweet bean paste dessert. Have you ever made yokan?
Hi Tammy, just wondering how long the poured fondant took to dry. I made some this afternoon and they are still quite soft and I want them for tomorrow afternoon. Is there any way to speed up the drying process. Cheers, Jayne
Which was better the single coat or the double coat?
I loveeeee your new intro:) and love the petits fours too
Wait, if you use white chocolate, won't the texture get gross when you add the extract? Or does that only happen with milk/dark chocolate?
Great tutorial!! Except those blossoms and leaves u said were simple😂thank you,Not sure I can let the kids eat em now
That intro is awesome
Stick with that
First Prize!!! Absolutely Gorgeous!!! I'm doing this for sure! THANK YOU SO MUCH! On your vids, I love your to-the-point, no nonsense, don't talk unnecessarily approach! You got my vote♡ What does yoyomax12 stand for?
What if you can't find clear vanilla extract.. Can you use the regular brown one?
I too watch both yoyomax and woodland bakery and i also am obsessed with bakelikeapro my 3 favs
soooo cute and pretty mini cakes :)
Will these freeze well so I can make ahead? Or will the sugar become gummy?
aww they looks so cute i love them. i have been wanting to try my hand at making some but after watching this i really mite have to just do it
These are so pretty :)
Can we make it ahead of time and keep them in the fridge ?
Love it they look so pretty
Perfect for mother' s day!
