Your skill making fondant animals is amazing! I’m such a visual learner that breaking it down into steps is sooooo helpful! Thank you, Karolyn. 👏👏
Happy to help! 🙌🙌
The way you are Karolyn, you call it 'extra', I call it being a perfectionist, makes you such a good tutor. Everything is explained in such great detail, you're amazing. I've been meaning to tell you this for a while but keep forgetting. Thank you so much x
Awww thank you honey, I appreciate you!!
YOU. ARE. BRILLIANT!!! I love your technique. Seriously I will FOREVER be grateful I found your channel!

Making the animals looked so fun. I like doing stuff like that. Thank you for sharing
Karolyn
You are Sooo Talented! You make it sound so easy but it definitely is not! The technique that you do, tracing it on fondant, is Amazing! Thank you for sharing!!!🖤🖤🖤👏👏👏
It gets easier the more you do it!

Thank you! 🤗
Luv your cut out fondant animals it’s amazing

I love this! Please send me a picture if you get to make it, I'd love to see!
That is adorable!
I always love your cakes!! You always go that extra mile to make sure they are the best!!

It's so colorful, love all your cakes sweetie 😘!!
Really enjoyed this. Good call on shifting the number at the end. 👍🏽
OMG!!! This is so flipping cute. I don’t know how anyone could possibly cut into such a cute cake. I’d have to preserve it forever and use it as a centerpiece on my kitchen table. You’re amazing.
😂😂 That defies the whole purpose of it! LOL!! You're the sweetest though, thanks girl!
Awesome Job!
Beautiful cake!
Absolutely beautiful cake! Lol, now I need this new shirt.. Love your NJ Girl. xoxo😉

Thank you so much for your tutorials - so so helpful and we are very grateful for all your hard work and for sharing it with us
Donnaaaaaa!! Thank you so much, I appreciate your generosity! 😊💜🙏
Another great video/tutorial Karolyn!!! I've learned so much from you!! Thank you!!!
Glad it was helpful!
The more videos I watch, I just can't believe you do this all by hand! It looks like a mold and/or cutters!! I sent you a message saying I thought your pricing was spot on but I disagree now!!! YOU SHOULD BE CHARGING WAY MORE. 😆👏👏👏👏🧡🧡🧡🧡
You're the sweetest, thank you honey!!😊💜
Beautiful. I LOVE the animal technique too! Gonna snag that and try it.
Go for it!
Absolutely love this cake! You did such an amazing job!!
Thanks so much 😊
That’s a gorgeous cake I love it 🤩
Thanks Deb!
Love it ♥️❤️
Amazing as usual 😊😁... I get so excited to see these videos... Thank youuuuu!!
Glad you like them!
Great work . For the animals is so much work I will do edible images for them
Thanks!
The fondant pieces are cuter than the printed picture.
Karolyn!!!!
1. I can watch your videos and I won't get bored. I love, love your technique and the clean work you present. You dear are amazing!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
2. My mom is the baker and she moved in with me 2 days before Covid lockdown. I help her out with the decoration piece of the cakes she bakes. I have learned so much from your videos! Yes, I self teach myself and I am very OCD.
3. How many days in advance you do your decoration?
4. Thank you for posting where you get your Sweetex. Last week we went to PJP and got ours for the first time. We used to used the one that Cakebakes sell but they are no where to be found.
5. I find it very hard to find a baking supply store in Philly. I know of 1 which is amazing but they don't always have everything we need. Of course, Amazon but if you need something right away that can be an issue.
Awwww you're welcome girl, I'm happy to help!
I make decorations up to a week in advance. If I want them to dry hard, I will let them sit out. If I don't want them to dry hard, I will keep them in a ziplock bag.
And PJP is awesome, I'm so grateful that they have the Sweetex there!
You are so talented. I absolutely love this cake. The animals are adorable . The whole cake is amazing . I wish I could do that . Watching you go through the process gives me hope that one day I will. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜
You'll get there, keep going!
First! You hair
Thank you! I rarely straighten it because my hair is so thin and fine and it breaks easily LOL
WOW fantastic cake you make it look so easy huni 👍😉💛🌼🐝
Thanks Catherine! It gets easier the more you do it 😊
You are amazing ❤
Thank you! 🙏
Fantastic. I wish I was as talented as you 👏👏👏👏
Thank you! You're so sweet!
Wow that's an amazing cake, your so skilled, and I also LOVED your masculine black cake, great job. P.s your hair looks lovely. 💕
Thank you love!!
you are soo talented omg !!! thank you for sharing!! I feel though that those cut out fondant animals are time consuming just as fondant figurines are!
Thank you!! They definitely are. But the 2D doesn’t annoy me like 3D 🤣🤣
@@KarolynsKakes omg lolol!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is brilliant!!! Is this how you did your Blues Clues cakes? I made a blues clues cake recently, I wish I had tried this technique. Love it! Your Cakes are so crisp, sharp and flawless. Thank you for this great tutorial 💕💕💕
Thank you Erin! This is exactly how I did the Blue’s Clues cake!
This came out soooo cute! So, I’ve seen your pricing video but with these fondant pieces for example, how would you price it?
👏👏👏
Such a gorgeous cake! Do you mind telling us how long did it take you to do?
Thank you honey! Just the decoration footage I recorded was over 5 hours. Then add baking, filling and icing the cake, so maybe 8 hours?
This is really pretty. Your so good with the animals. Can you used Betty Crocker icing inside of butter cream
Are you asking if you can use Betty Crocker icing instead of my buttercream recipe? If so, you can. But the Betty Crocker icing is really soft and it seems like it melts pretty quickly. You can stir in a little meringue powder to stiffen it up if needed.
@@KarolynsKakes yes that’s what I was asking and you are correct. I made my cake Monday and it is very soft. However the cake was really good. I’ll send you a picture on IG if that’s ok.
I love it! Please tell me
More about the 2 day water fast☺️
I do it every few weeks when I start to feel bloated and blah. It takes some willpower and determination. The first day is the hardest, but then it gets easier. My brain actually feels clearer when I'm fasting. Look into it! I'd recommend starting off with a shorter fast and working up to longer ones. There are many benefits from fasting at different lengths!
@@KarolynsKakes thanks for the tips! I’ve done other completely dry fasts but not a true water fast. Thanks ☺️
Hi Karloyn.
Do you use Gumtex in the fondant you cover a WHOLE cake with, or just in fondant used to make decorations. Thanks!
Love your videos! They’re such fun to watch 😀
Hi Reb! Yes, I use it in fondant to cover cakes and fondant for decorations.
Here's a video showing it!
ruclips.net/video/EYaNXTDOkj4/видео.html
Do the leaves go soft and loose shape after you put the cake in the fridge? I was wondering if the 2D or 3D images would keep the shape. Thank you so much Karolyn for sharing all these infos
I haven't had a problem with that. However, I only use homemade marshmallow fondant and make sure I add enough Tylose powder. If you use store bought fondant, it's notoriously soft and you may have issues.
Hi there that looks great my granddaughter is going to be 2year old so we are having her birthday party safie animals just wanted to no where you got the drawing of the animals i live in australia where are you from thanks for sharing your ideas looks really nice please let me know
Hi Mylene! I linked the pictures in the description of this video.😊
Karolyn your videod are everything 😍
I tried doing the characters but when i traced the characters i kept ripping the paper 😢 i tried not to press hard but it was so hard to see the outline if I didn’t
Also what video do you show where you mix your tylose with fondant ?
Sounds like you need more Tylose powder in your fondant! If my fondant is too soft, this happens. I can't remember which videos I show mixing the fondant with the Tylose. I'll be sure to include that more often!
What do you do with the excess fondant that has all the gumtex in it? Whenever I ball it up and try and save it for another use, it ends up a hard ball in my bag and I end up throwing it away. Even when I try and microwave it for a few seconds, it becomes pliable for the most part, but has a weird feel to it. I use Wilton fondant, and not homemade marshmallow, so maybe it's different? I'm guessing you somehow try and salvage any extra you can, so just curious how I can too. Thanks!
It could be different because you're using Wilton. I keep using the fondant until it is too hard like you said. After microwaving it too many times, it reaches a point of no return LOL So I reuse it as long as it's still a little soft before microwaving it!
How long in advance can we make the animal figures, thanks karolyn all the wonderful teachings.
You're welcome honey! I usually make my decorations between 1-4 days in advance.
Thanks dear 😘
Super cute! Even if the kid is named "corn". 😉 Oof.
😂😂
Once I had someone say Reese was the baby's name (like Malcolm in the Middle). Luckily, I had been working at the bakery for a while so I asked for spelling clarification, she spelled it like the last name Ruiz 🤷🏻♀️.
@@adrianaflores714 Ha! Reese is my son's name!
Karolyn why do you cut these figures out rather than printing them? Surely it takes more time in labor than it would for the cost of printing?
Aesthetics. Some people prefer the look of fondant animals. I’ve done the same theme with edible images and fondant characters and the fondant (in my opinion) looks better, but the edible images cost less. So it all about what the customer prefers!
Can you please mention the cake sizes when you make the cakes?
Yes, sorry, sometimes I forget! This one is 4" / 6" / 8"
Please I did watch your icing images video but do you have any other tips on cleaning the ink cartridge holder? I’ve cleaned it with hot water over long periods of time as they instructed me but it has never gone back to its normal state. That’s the only instructions they give, to keep doing it. My nozzle check never comes out perfect again and my when I print my pictures they are never bright after this happened. Because of this, for the past over two months, I’ve been purchasing my edible images from the grocery store….I’m so on the verge of buying another edible printer…Thanks for your tips and experience 😄
Unfortunately you may have clogged the print head beyond repair. It happened to me before and it stinks because you have to get another printer. But it will never happen again!
@@KarolynsKakes oh wow! This happened to you before! Ok how did you prevent this from ever happening again? Thanks so much for letting me know this…
@@KarolynsKakes I thought it was weird that it happened because I was using my printer far more often than they said as the minimum.
How do you decide when to do an edible image or when to make the image out of found out?
It depends on the customer's budget and the look they are going for. Fondant animals take a lot longer, so they cost more.
@@KarolynsKakes Thankyou for responding
What are the sizes of the cake 😊 do you have elephant pic too
This cake is 4" / 6" / 8". I show how to make an elephant in this video - ruclips.net/video/pxU2U-SoRK0/видео.html
I don't see the link for the shirts
That's so weird, it should show up beneath the video. You don't see it?
I love your technique so much but I’ve come to the conclusion that I just don’t have the eyesight for this fine detail and my fingers and too big and stiff!
😂😂 awwww that's okay! We find what works for us!
