This has been highly requested so as I had some free time after sending the Pandan Sponge Cake for the Pandan Kaya Cake I was baking for mum's birthday into the oven, I decided to do up a video tutorial for creaming/frosting of round cake. So with this, I'm introducing Time with Cynthia! (: Hopefully, I'll be able to do more video guides that will help you master some of the techniques I've been using.
So for this creaming of cake, I used a dummy cake.
In order to have this cake done, I whipped up some non-dairy whipping cream from Phoon Huat and tinted it light pink. You should be able to get a smooth cake like this with practice.
Click on for the video! (:
Do leave a comment or drop me an email if you'd enjoyed these videos and would love to see more of it.. Till then, tata! (:

Hi Cynthia, how come the whipping cream won't melt? Mine melts :'(
ReplyDeleteHi Shannon!
DeleteDid you use non-dairy whipping cream?
Also, the cake needs refrigeration.. was yours left in room temperature?
Regards,
Cynthia
Ah... I did not use non-dairy whipping cream. I used the embro brand cream :( And again, I did not refrigerate my cake =_=.... After did more reading in your blog, I knew what is my mistakes :) thks so much for the wonderful blog and tips! Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteAh! Dairy whipping creams dont have much holding power (: oh please refrigerate any cakes that have got cream or cream cheese! esp with our humidity!
DeleteNo prob! Glad you like it! Thanks for the encouragement!
Love,
Cynthia
Hi Cynthia, please recommend others brand of non dairy whipping cream that have much holding power beside using phoon huat in hse brand.
ReplyDeleteHello!
DeletePour & whip and Toppin' Pride are both fairly decent non-dairy whipping creams. Non-dairy whipping creams are easier to work with and have more holding power. Dairy whipping creams are tougher to work with.
Bulla Brand thickened cream can be used but it's not easy to work with (:

How about emborg whipping cream? Which category does it fall under. Daily or non daily? All those whipping cream place in supermarket did not indicate. How to take note for future purchases. Pls advise.
DeleteRegards
that's dairy.
DeleteNon-dairy there's only a few like toppin' pride, pour & whip and PH's in-house brand
Phoon Huat hse brand whipping cream is it the same as "Red Man Whip Topping" ?
ReplyDeleteIt comes in a one litre carton box. How much is needed to frost a 3 layers 7" cake and how to store the balance and how long can it be stored ?
Thank you.

DeleteHi Cynthia, do you know if the cake would hold enough for transportation and will hold up in an air-conditioned room or it requires refrigeration till it's used?
ReplyDeleteHello Theresa,
DeleteAre you referring to fresh cream cakes?
That would need refrigeration.
