for those of you who have done this, I am really just interested in the frosting the cake part.....when doing the "whips" is it difficult to get them to turn out like the picture on SBCB 04?

Any suggestions or tips in making sure it turns out ok? I am doing the whip cream frosting for a bridal shower cake next weekend any pointers would be appreciated! thanks!
 
I made this in April for my open house and it is DELICIOUS!!! The frosting "whips" were very easy. Just put the frosting on kind of thick and press the spreader on it and pull it straight away....so so so easy!

The only tip I can give you is to be sure and cut hump off of the cake so that it will sit level on your plate. I didn't do this and mine sat a bit lop-sided.

Good luck with it.

It's SO easy - just like Linda said!! We do this cake in a million different variations for all kinds of holidays - it's easy and fun and looks SO impressive!
 
A very yummy recipe! I did this recipe for a bridal shower and made it into a bride cake.
 


Hi there! I completely understand your concern about getting the frosting to turn out like the picture on the SBCB 04. I have made many cakes using the whip cream frosting and have a few tips to share with you.First, make sure your whip cream is very cold before using it. This will help it whip up thicker and hold its shape better. I also recommend using a high-speed mixer or stand mixer to whip the cream, as it will incorporate more air and make it fluffier.When adding any flavorings or colors to the whip cream, make sure they are also cold to avoid deflating the frosting. And when frosting the cake, use a spatula or piping bag to create the desired look. You can also chill the cake in the fridge for a few minutes to help the frosting set.Lastly, don't be afraid to practice and play around with different techniques to achieve the perfect look. It may take a few tries, but I'm sure your bridal shower cake will turn out beautifully. Best of luck!
