- How to Make Pumpkin Cakes
Full Recipe: preppykitchen....
These delicious, delightful, and moist pumpkin cakes are filled with all your favorite fall spices have a layer of cream cheese frosting inside, and just so happen to look like little pumpkins!
I thought these would be really cute as part of a centerpiece at dinner mixed in with real pumpkins and Autumn leaves. Dessert could be right in front of you without you having any idea!

Preppy Kitchen... can I use sour cream instead of yogurt?

It’s look great! Can you tell me where you got the pumpkin baking pan?
You got me at 'no fondant' !
Same 👍🏼
Hallelujah!
this guy has such chaotic energy. i love it.

Haley Rosenthal I don’t know I get a lawful good vibe 😆
YES hahaha
@@rboots4825 I`s say he is chaotic good
He is sassy and cute
You know what I love? I love how he pours the flower directly out of the bag. When I see baking videos where they put baking powder and flour and everything in little bowls it just makes me anxious about clean up. Thank you for keeping it real. 👏👏👏
Flower?
@@DaveTexas ever heard of voice to text? Condescending nitpick nitwit.. You understood what they meant. Congratulations, you have the reading comprehension of a 4th grader. You win this comment thread.
@@KM-bn7dg wow, I got all that from one word? You must be desperate to justify your own stupidity if you allow a single word to turn into everything in your little diatribe there. Get back to me when you finish elementary school, sweetie.
I thought when you said flower you meant like the plant 🌹🌷💐 not like baking flour 😂
I pay so much money at the Art Institute for pastry arts. And I can tell you I have so many instructors and no one like you. You are amazing. You really get the student attention. And I know you are not another RUclips person who pretend to bake. You are a professional and talented. I suggest to viewers stay with you. Because you are teaching the right way. I am still learning from your videos. A baker never stop learning.
Oh my gourd how cute
I LOVE THAT PUN
Good one!!!!! Dang!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😊
Thank you for not using fondant! I can't tell you how disappointing it is to see the thumbnail of a beautiful cake, click on it, and then find out that half of it was sculpted out of something that tastes like wax lips. Excellent recipe. I'm definitely going to try this.
Sarah Leonard goodness what kind of fondant do you use that tastes like wax lips. There are some out there that are very tasty & some not so tasty but I’ve never tasted wax lips before
I've only ever used it myself once, and that was whatever brand is sold in the cake decoration section of the Michael's craft store chain. I've eaten multiple professionally decorated cakes that were covered in fondant, including a very fancy wedding cake that looked like a peacock, and their fondant tasted the same (everyone at the table agreed that all of the fondant they had ever eaten tasted that way). What brands are tasty, so I can use them in the future? There are some things that just can't be made with modeling chocolate, which is my usual work-around.
I agree. Fondant tastes horrible. Even in cooking school, we would peel off the fondant before eating the cake. Never had a fondant that I like (store bought or homemade). But, I am super picky about my frostings... I don't eat American buttercream, only SMBC, IMBC, FBC.
Sarah, you should try the new Michaels fondants. They are so much better than before. They taste like marshmallow fondant !
So very apt and true! Lol! You can make marshmallow fondant tho. I hear that's pretty good.🎃
Husband: how’s your cake?
Him: _its fine_ *holds back tears*
Lmaooo 💀
Lol 😭
@PG&HSJC He has a husband, not a wife. 👨❤️💋👨
😂🤣😂😅
Hi John, I love this recipe however I wasn’t going to buy a bunch of baby pumpkins to make the stems. So there are a couple of methods to make the stem that I found work really GREAT 👍. The first method is, I used a piece of a large pretzel stick dipped in dark chocolate. The second thing I did was to take an actual stem and make a mold of it out of food-safe molding compound. Then once the mold was ready I either used moldering chocolate, fondant, gum paste or melted chocolate in the mold to make the stem. I even had a friend of mine roll out Tootsie rolls into the shape of a stem for a less expensive and less technical way of making a stem. With any of these methods you can make everything on the cake completely eatable. I hope my suggestions help. Thanks for the wonderful video. Take care, Dee😊
OMG brilliant!!! Thank you!!
Great ideas! A single cashew might work well as a stem too.
@@LaundryFaerie or a pecan 😭🥹
Me too! I thought Tootsie Rolls too!! You a Genius!!
Thank you so much
I can get a normal sized bundt pan. And make a giant pumpkin!!!
its the great pumpkin Charlie Brown! Lol yes and a lot less work!!
That’s brilliant!
@@katc2345 ,my thoughts exactly
I think thats what I'm going to do
hmmmm that's a great idea....thinking the class I work with might love that one.
Who else saw this in the recommended?
Great looking cakes

thats what i was thinking too lolll
becc6010 becc6010 but now you have someone to enjoy the joke with. 😀
I have been baking for the last 3-4 years. I have learned many things about cake making from your channel and still learn new ones every day ❤, thank you so much ! 😊
None of us are perfect. We are human with mistakes.. You show the videos of mixing all these things, I appreciate that 😊
This is the strangest energy I've ever found in a RUclips video but I'm living for it
😂😭
It's the pulchritude proper of a true dom
You could use tootsie rolls for the stem... just an idea. If you melt them a little, they are completely moldable and best of all, edible. Love the video!
And safer than marzipan! Catching the microwave on fire was not fun! This was in 2005 and I never did a spice cake after that. And when the firefighter took them out of the oven, he called them muffins. That's what made me finally break into tears.
Omg that’s a great idea
Thank you so much! I was wracking my brain trying to think of an edible stem.
I'm going to gold food spray a piece of licorice! 😁
I played a practical joke by molding tootsie rolls with the warmth of my hands into cat turd shapes, you can guess the rest...😂
"A drop of orange food coloring"
*squirks in half a bottle*
Exactly what I was gonna say 😂
😂😂😂 saw that made me laugh 🤫
@@celinamora7842 glad to make someone smile :)
More like squirt some orange food coloring
Wiltons food coloring is the best...not the liquid stuff he used here which is weak............better as Wiltons paste...a small bit goes a long way as they are strong colours
I simply love this guy, who is so creative to watch and he makes all his baking videos look so easy to make step by step clear instructions. He always puts his smiley face on and I know when someone has talent or not. John has so much talent.
i love the idea of giving my wedding guests mini pumpkins for dessert instead of everyone getting a slice of cake
its cute and unique
Thou shalt hire a large troupe of pastry chefs to bake thy tiny cakes, yo.
Omg that’s a GREAT idea
I love that idea
A troupe of fairy godmothers
Amazing idea! That would be so cool and cute!
You could use a “Churro” as a stem too! These are so cute!
Fabulous idea!
"This would be a fun little project to do with kids."
Hahahahaha
I don’t get it? What’s the joke, I’m honestly confused by this comment 😂
@@taraji_b I think the commenter is an adult, so they are laughing at the fact that this bake is directly towards children. Hope this help.^^
@@taraji_b I laughed because I took it as kids are a little heavy handed, clumsy etc.(depending on the child) So them helping would be a nightmare if you actually want to serve beautiful pumpkins lol
Imagine the mess they’d make lol 😂
Right? LOL
I first saw this video in 2018 and jumped on doing these -- I LOVE them! They are a lot of work but they make excellent dessert gifts for friends at Halloween or at Thanksgiving.
Just a few suggestions:
1. Actually, if you turn OFF the mixer and add the confectioner's sugar with a spatula, you avoid the whole "poof" effect entirely. Once it's incorporated enough so it won't kick-back, turn the mixer back on and proceed to blend well. I learned this trick last year and I love it!
2. I'm planning to make these again this year as Halloween gifts and have decided to do something a little different. I'm going to make them white pumpkins so I've decided to put cream cheese frosting all over, but thinly. Then I'll mold them until I like the shape. THEN -- this is the new part -- I plan to coat them with white chocolate ganache. That should give them a nice, finished look. And the white-chocolate ganache will add another layer of flavor.
3. I freeze them before I add the frosting. I do this because it makes slicing the end and frosting so much easier. They'll stay fresh for up to 2 weeks in the freezer. In fact, that's a trick I learned from professional bakers.
4. To make the stems, I take the extra cake that I trimmed away and mix it with a little left over frosting to make -- cake-pops! It is how you make cake-pops but it also works as a sculpt-able cake, too. Using that, you can sculpt very realistic edible stems. Mixing the cake and orange or white frosting gives them a very roughened look and darkens it a bit. Try it!
I also want to adapt this for Christmas to make little angels or snow men... ??
Great tips, thank you! 😊
I wonder if for an edible stem if little churros would work. That’s what they remind me of
Yaz Valentin That’s a good idea. I don’t see me buying a huge amount of pumpkins just for the stems.
Amaya Strata i was thinking there no way I’m buying that many small pumpkins. Plus I don’t wanna have to take the stem off before devouring the cake
I think that the cereal, Cinnamon Toast Crunch Churros, would make good stems
Zoe omg. That’s perfect!
Maybe form some rice crispy treats?
"It's done, but are we DONE done? NO." 😂
"My husband says, What's going on with your cake?
It's FINE! WALK AWAY!"
😂😂😂
That made me laugh so hard.
This literally is story of my life 😂 😂
Same!! Lmao
I know that feel.
Oof lol! 🤣
I love how much they look like actual pumpkins....amazing! 🤎🤎
I've never related more when he said the fondant wouldn't taste as good.
Citlalli Gonzalez Actually, there are some good fondant recipes, such as marshmallow fondant that just literally tastes like marshmallows and is pretty much marshmallow playdoh :3
@Akuma_FemaleDevil I literally hate marshmallows though. All they are are sticky flavorless globs of sugar that I can't swallow.
that’s okay, everyone likes their own things :3
It’s just a step up from the normal fondant in my opinion because it actually tastes sweet and compliments the cake
Dude, I'm going to make these into Harry Potter sorting pumpkins by changing the color of the frosting on the inside!
Mercurial Pierrot this is such a cool idea for a themed party!!! Ahhhh love it!
What a clever idea.
That sound’s like a fun idea. My son is 29 now but when Harry Potter first came out he devoured those book’s. He is in the Navy and gets to come home for Thanksgiving. I want to make these for him. “Stealing your idea😉”
Genius idea!
Oh, cool! Sort of like the croquembouche sorting hat the NYT Cooking channel did?
LOVE LOVE LOVE this video! Your attitude, smile, and facial expressions show how much you enjoy what you create!
on behalf of all UK based watchers - THANK YOUUUUU for putting the gram and milliliter conversions!! Many, many times I've messed up a cake because I haven't got right the US cup conversions :D
OMG!!! I can't deal with all the cuteness!!! So incredible for Thanksgiving!! I won't be able to sleep til I make them! 😱😳
So cute!! They look so yummy! I appreciate that they are Pumpkin flavored pumpkin shaped cakes. Thank you for the tips on making your own scrappers to shape and smooth the frosting.
At the end of the video my boyfriend looked and was like "what?? How did he fill the pumpkin with cake?" 😂
Haha
Awww...
I loved the presentation on how to make this little pumpkin cake. I caught myself smiling the whole time thinking "I can do this"...only because you made me think I can.
my dude be dropping half the ingredients on the counter omfg 😂😂😂
He had 4 eggs on the counter & only used 3, why take out 4?
@Gina Maxey for decoration on the counter 😹
..."I'll pick that up later" 😲
Bianca C. It makes it more realistic for sure. Who can actually keeps all the ingredients in the bowl?
You should make a video of yourself making one of these cakes, ya know.... to show how much better you can do?
Brilliant! I hate fondant. It looks nice but the taste is horrible. I am absolutely making these for the next family gathering
Edit: I made this last year for Thanksgiving. This morning my mom asked if I could make them again this year.
Agreed on the fondant. A woman I know made a Cinderella pillow covered in fondant and a "glass" slipper on top for a birthday cake. That pillow cake was the most beautiful cake I have ever seen - puffy creases and all. I find fondant has absolutely no endearing texture or flavor and wonder if it wasn't really meant to be eaten.
Did see a marshmallow fondant video here somewhere - maybe that would be better?
I love fondant - flavor and all 😅
I had this on in the back ground and when he said no fondant I actually I swerved to watch this video intently
@@ahaziahjoshua1397 yep, I was planning to move on to the next cuz it looked like you'd have to use fondant and then he said it. Hope he knows how valuable that comment is. LOL
Ok I really don’t like fondant AT ALL but if your have a cake that would look best if you used fondant you should use modelling chocolate instead. Works just like fondant and it tastes like white chocolate so it’s great don’t know why more people don’t use it
"Pop it off when you want to eat it, and live your life." I love this guy!
i love how your working space isn't perfectly clean and shows that chaos just happens while baking :D
This is the first video of yours that I've watched. And it was sooo enjoyable! You made this look so doable! I think I'm gonna try this for Thanksgiving!!!!
"we don't want a saggy pumpkin" LMAO
Daniela Pagliaro yea cause I’m already swaggy
5:27:Add a drop or two!
Adds half bottle!😂
Besides the pumpkin 🎃. He’s adorable 🥰🥰🥰
Wow, it looks like a real pumpkin! It would fool me. lol
Best use of a mini bundt pan ever!
Nashville Tennessee Agreed !!
I'm back almost a year later.. they're just so cute!! 🎃🍴
I've done this before and it turned out really AWESOME! followed all your ingredients to the very last bit. for the stem, I made use of cinnamon sticks, cut it a few cm tall and voila!
The brightest orange I’ve ever seen
Him: it doesn’t look that orange
I find his voice very relaxing! I don't really like cake and I can't imagine myself doing all this but I'd love to marry someone that does! I love to cook but baking is much more difficult and precise! Wow all that work but all that joy at the end too! Great video!
I normally hate cupcakes and ‘cutesy’ food but these are beyond adorable, I love them. Can’t wait to try it. The way the chilled buttercream smooths down with wet fingers really looks like tough waxy pumpkin skin, fabulous. And because they’re fully encased you don’t get the dry outside you can so easily end up with when making cupcakes.
I've been baking for years, I have never seen something so cute! I wonder if I could do a big bundt cake...? Your set is gorgeous, you are adorable, I even like the music. And you move along at just the right pace, too. I'm your newest subscriber, can't wait to see what you make next!
Made this pumpkin cake recipe, everybody LOVED it, including that cream cheese frosting! Keep them coming!
"it's fine... walk away" 😂😂😂
I just love how you chuckle when you say "a drop or two" then pour a whole bunch in and the sugar and tea towel. It's just so real life, kinda chaotic and entertaining 😂 we are so used to seeing absolute perfection online its nice to see some realness and laugh a little!
No fondant thank god
Gross stuff
Lol I feel SO RUDE when I peel it off to eat cakes at a party but I will not eat sheet sugar dough 😂
I love watching your baking videos. You seem so genuinely happy doing it, and it's kind of contagious.
I love everything in this video...the host, the cake, the mixer!
I love the mixer!
Omg that copper mixer is hella sexy!! I couldn’t take my eyes off of it!
“This would be such a fun project for little kids” *laughs in parent*
Ah. That was hilarious.
Yeah, I wonder if he feels the same way now with two toddlers.
This is too much work for me as an adult!
This dude is like the messiest baker on RUclips, This is the third cake tutorial I have watched and in each one he is gracelessly cracking eggs, dropping flour over the sides of the bowl and I don’t even want to start with what he ends up doing with the powered sugar #freakinloveit #keepingitreal
“….the messiest baker…” You haven’t seen many bakers apparently. There are plenty that are much worse. Besides that, what do you care? Such a weird comment to make especially since you keep watching them - and do not even address his recipes.
"this is called a Snacking Top" - my favorite quote of the week lol
I just made these pumpkins for Thanksgiving desert. THEY ARE AMAZING!!
And FUN to make too!!
Thanks!!👍🏻🎃👍🏻
Did you use real pumpkin stems? I was trying to think of a non fondant way to make edible stems....
Maybe a white chocolate mixed with a tad bit of milk chocolate, and soften then shape, using plastic wrap or parchment paper??? Just a thought... I have never done it before...
Thanks for this recipe and your technique. I actually skipped this video several times because I thought it was more decorating than a recipe. But your use of the bunts is clever and adaptable, so I'm glad I changed my mind about that.
So many icing tools that i can MAKE! Oh my gosh!
@@PreppyKitchen well, you have to buy at least the yoghurt container ;)
I loved your video and yes they definitely looked very yummy lol my tummy is hungry😋 thanks for sharing I appreciate it it will be a great idea for this Thanksgiving🍃🎃🍃🦃🌻🍁🍂🍁🍂 from Canada🍁 which we will be celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow hope you all have a wonderful day 🌥🌞and God bless🕊😇 keep the great work up😉👍
Dont you dare throw away that cottage cheese container!
Are we going to talk about the fact that instead of saying “frost” he said “now we are going to enrobe the cakes” 😂
Nope.

My 4-year-old daughter - “Is that guy real? Let’s go to his house so he can make it for us, ok?”
Awe❤
Aww bless her.
That is so cute
Clever girl.
Love it!
Great job! Years ago, these are definitely something I would have done for fall or Thanksgiving. I used to make a large pumpkin cake similar to these baby ones by using two Bundt pans...my kids loved it.
Imagine ur husband in the kitchen whipping this up yes please
imagine his husband getting whipped in the kitchen instead LOL
It's the first video I saw and I already love you. Thanks for giving us alternatives for some ingredients! Since i'm allergic to coconut oil it was helpful to know how to replace it!
I’ve always wondered what was the reason for alternating between adding the dry mixture and the pumpkin (milk in some other recipes) at the end of making your batter? The cakes look amazing, can’t believe it’s all buttercream 😍
What a beautiful, genuine person! My little girl and I stumbled on to your video and we found ourselves smiling the whole time and wanting to start baking right away! Thank u for posting!!
One can use that handy silicone spatula to scrape the kids off the ceiling, after they consume all that sugar.
c3cubed Do what my parents did. Make kids go outside to play.
@@tweetiebirdism whoa! New concept for today's parents!😂😂
😂🤣
Dead. Back when my 3 grandkids were little they all had ADHD. Can you IMAGINE? OMG. They are all teens now. Thank God they have calmed down.😵😰😈👦😹😹😹😹😹🎃
😂😂😂
Thank you RUclips recommendations for blessing me with this wholesome baking content
These pumpkins are adorable!!! Omg 😍
I'm so emotional. I loved your macaron video and it helped me out a lot so of course I watched this video. Your vibes and energy are just amazing and I feel 100% happier watching your videos
This is too damn cute. I'm gonna make these for Halloween!
“This is called a snacking top.” This guy gets me.
Oh my god this was hilarious. "Pop it off when you wanna eat...live your life"
These are so cool. My daughter is getting married in a few days and is having a fall themed wedding. Her wedding cake is actually pumpkin with cream cheese filling and a chiffon frosting. Imagine how adorable a half dozen of these would look on her dessert table! Just found your channel and will be following now. I bake, but not anything sculpted……these are just too darling for words. Thanks so much for sharing 🤗🧡
OMG. John, you are such an adorable, skilled, and talented teacher/artist/baker/entrepreneur! I LOVE pumpkin and this precious recipe. You make me wanna bake! I’m going to make my first attempt with a boxed cake 😱 and store-bought frosting😬 for practice. My tween/teen kids are all in on this project!! I’ll let you know how it goes, or doesn’t!
Could this work with 2 large bundt cake pans and make a large pumpkin? I ain't got time for all of this, I'm Hispanic, this would be way too many pumpkins for my family for Thanksgiving!
Bonny Martinez that sounds like a great idea also!! Thanks
Brilliant Bonny! Yes, you can make it huge and it would be so real looking! I would use the half (equator) part as the stopping point for a slice. Then once you have served the top portion, begin slicing the bottom half. You might really pack the center hole with filling, that way it will distribute the filling to more portions. Thanks for the one big cake idea!
Oh my goodness - I had the same idea!!! I was actually going to try this this weekend. Great "fall enthusiasts" minds must think alike! :)
It's the Great Pumpkin! Charlie Brown. : ) And yes, brilliant minds do think alike in the fall! ba ha ha!
I did this years ago for my daughter's birthday. I used chocolate on one half, and vanilla on the other and frosed a third of a twinkie green for the stem. It was cute and tasted great too.
12:52 his humour is soo bad that it actually makes it funny 😂😂😂
LITERALLY 🤣

He's so funny
BRAVO!! What Beautiful and Gourmet Little Pumpkins. AMAZING!!💖💙💖⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You do painting, you taught Science AND you bake! Like, you're literally the best dude i have ever seen! ♥
I love a guy who laughs whis own, like non-jokes.
Thank you, yesterday I made this cake and my whole family loved it, definitely one of the most delicious I've ever had.
This is the first time I.ve ever seen or heard of you "Preppy Kitchen" , but Wow!!! You are enjoyable to watch not to mention you can explain your process easily and enjoyably. Such a talented young artist.
Oh my goodness these are the cutest things ever! I have a large 3D pumpkin pan, but I've never been able to make the cake look good with icing, so I'm going to try your technique! LOVE it!
So! So! So! Perfect for Fall/Halloween season! And let me tell you, me and my husband are Halloween Who**s! How did I miss this one after 3 years!!? Loved it! Thx for sharing.
Richard
Halloween Who*es omg that made me laugh so bad 🤣🤣🤣 nothing wrong with a Halloween who*e 🤣🤣🎃👻
you could probably use a cookie piped out in a star tip or like a churro for an edible stem. I definitely want to try this!!
Ozziepup Oooh, piping through star tip is a great idea!!! Could be cookie, churro, or even melted (dyed) white chocolate
Have a true that stuffed with cream cheese and pumpkin That way it's its own little burst of happiness
mmm great idea! a churro would match perfectly with the pumkin cake!
❤❤❤ I'm using this recipe....and no fondant amazing
I was slightly put off by use of real pumpkin stems at the end - IMO the whole thing should be edible especially if its going to kids. I found mini churros worked perfectly when I did it
You can do stems using molding chocolate or sugar paste for flowers.
Churros..! Yess!
My thoughts exactly how did you do mini churros? Please share
Isaac Thomas pumpkin stems are edible.......
Miffet Blue nobody is gonna wat pumpkin steams especially kids
I made this for my friends during Halloween - it tasted great! I even tried to do a stevia version for my relatives - still amazing. Thank you for this!
"Its fine... walk away" I love it
I made these today for National Pumpkin Day--they are scrumptious! (I used Brazil nuts for the stems!) Thank you for your videos; all the best to you and your family. :)
It's my first time watching you and I LOVE THE WAY YOU TEACH! So clear and fun ❤️
Blessings from Asturias, Spain
Me too
This looked way easier than I could have imagined! I really enjoyed watching the video! I wasn’t planning on actually making these when I clicked on the video, but now I plan too! I’m going to use pecans for the stems I think!
I honestly watch this video because of his energy. I just love you..Keep doing you, its amazing
Wow, i have never seen tools made out of a container! Genius! This IS the cutest decoration!
Oh my gosh!!! I LOVE these!! Thanks for sharing!
They really do look real! Would make a great center piece/dessert!
Omg you’re such a sweetheart!! This is so cool and simple. Thank you for making this!! 🧡🧡🧡
Love this video!!!!
This is amazing craftsmanship. Well I'm going tell you what I love about this more than anything. I have made a decision to not buy gourds and mini pumpkin's for fall times. I just don't feel right about buying something that I'm just will throw away not eat. I will only buy squash and pumpkins that my family and I will eat. I obtained some beautiful blue green ones from the Asian market. I also bought a beautiful Long Island cheese squash. I will also purchase some golden delicious hubbert squashes and Pumpkin pie pumpkins. So your little Mini pumpkin dessert idea will replace the mini pumpkin's I am no longer purchasing. Bravo!
That's FLIPPIN awesome
