    I can 100% tell that you have a teaching background. How you explain every little step as you cook, mostly - and it’s so useful. Often times bakers will omit “unimportant” steps, but for nonskilled bakers, every step is important. Because of the teaching background, you realize this and explain everything!

    No questions as much as a statement. You are SUCH an excellent instructor. I can't tell you how thankful I am for finding your page. I've been experimenting with pound cakes first (my Mama always had an Orange Pound Cake in our house. It was time for me to carry on the tradition). After watching your channel, I feel brave enough to take it to the next level.

    The trick to perfect butter cream frosting is to whip butter with whisk attachment about 4-5 minutes. Yields a light yellow with smoother consistency that will not break down later. The taste is amazing! Try it once and you'll never ever not do it.

An easy way to put them Ifor r Lund pans is after flour and greasing ur pan put wax paper down in the pan I turn the pan upside down and put it over a crisco container then I apply my strip the lip of the pan will keep it from slipping off. I also use safety pins to lock it on if ur trying to put it through the material and it resisting run the sharp part through ur hair it will help break up the static electricity. Hope I made this easy to understand good luck hope u feel better

    My Mom made a three 9” layer German Cake with a double recipe of frosting. When she first made them, I hated nuts, so I would eat the cake and just discard the nuts, she finally told me that if I didn’t eat the nuts I couldn’t eat the cake because not eating the nuts was too much of a waste. So
    I started eating the nuts, and now I love them and always have them in my pantry. Also, I love German Chocolate cream pie, the kind we had at
    Marie Callender’s Restaurant. It took me awhile to duplicate it, but once I did I couldn’t believe how simple it was, I made the chocolate pudding, when it was about 2 minutes from being done, I tossed in about a cup of pecans and about a cup of shredded coconut, give or take....it’s now my favorite pie. And, because of you, I’m going to be getting 6” cake pans, because I just like how the cakes look when you’re finished, not that mine will measure up, but they will still be awesome.

    i just discovered your channel a few months ago and really like it.
    your attitude on this clip follows nicely with the rest of what i have seen;
    this cavalier tossing off of the discarded questions somehow matches well with your combo of meticulous work contrasting with the slobbing around of flour escaping from the mixer and sugar flying over the edge of bowls.
    then pit that against the insane detail of making those flowers.
    i believe i have read that Beethoven and Mozart were kind of messy too... though their work was NOT.
