Cake Tips
Pleasing a Crowd?
My most requested cake is a delicate yellow or vanilla cakes, smothered with white buttercream frosting. Always a crowd pleaser!
FrostingArt on a Buttercream Canvas
If you plan to add a FrostingArt image to your cake, I recommend white butter-cream frosting because the buttercream icing is the best medium to use to do a buttercream art transfer, this is a very in depth detail image done by hand.
Any Way You Slice It...
Cake cutting with an audience can be a bit unnerving. Here's a hint: before you start cutting, use a thin string to make a small indentation or impression in the top of the frosting creating a scored guideline to use when cutting. This way, serving even and well-shaped slices is sure to be a piece of cake.
Customizing Your Message
Cakes are a great way to send a custom message. Usually, you can fit about up to three words on a two-layer round cake, and three to five words on a half sheet cake..this also will be considering the design you choose for the cake if wording is or is not appropriate. In some cases wording can be written on your cake boards.
Cake Sizing
The Round
Round cakes can range in size from 5 inches to 14 inches and can be a single layer or many layers. I have chosen to offer two and three in layer round cakes which may range from 6 to 10 inches in diameter. These sizes are the most popular size in the baking industry and ensure that we are providing an appropriate number of servings. Occasionally I will add a layer to a smaller cake to fulfill your order. The round cake generally holds 2 to three words.
Just the right size to say Happy Birthday!
The Half
The Half Sheet cake is approximately 11 X 15 inches in size and are typically one layer, but I can create two layers and add a filling. The Half Sheet is a party size cake serving 30 to 40 people. Perfect for office celebrations and easily decorated with creative message such as up to five words - "Congratulations to the Team. Here's to Sweet Success." this too depends on the design on the cake as well as to where the wording will fit in.
