There's actually an easier way to get this done. You can cover your acrylic disks with cling film, or with press'n seal completely on one side (the one that comes in contact with the cake) and leaving the other side a bit uncovered. Then you frost the cake and freeze it for a few minutes. After the frosting has set, you can now peel the film or press'n seal off the acrylic disk and remove it carefully. Then, peel the film off the cake. That way you don't have any chance to ruin the top frosting layer. Hope this helps!:)

I really appreciate the fact that you showed your learning process. Very helpful.

I put a little bit of Crisco on the board and then the parchment that keeps it stuck on there and very easy to takeoff

You have a wonderful, calm way of explaining the process. Your results are amazing!!!

I really appreciate the real time experience. Thanks!

Remove the board first when the frosting is soft, then chill the cake before you remove the parchment paper

Great demonstration! 😊

Brilliant video

Great tutorial

That icing is 👌🏽❤️

Can this technique be used when icing a cake with whipped cream?

What kind of frosting was this? Blackberry? I'd love to learn how to make it.

for everyone wondering what the icing is its blueberry my mom made it for my brothers birthday cake before

I have been using acrylic cake boards for a while now ......i never have used icing to apply parchment paper to the acrylic boards i use Crisco

Is it available for whipped cream icing?

Which do you think would be better? The 8.5-inch circle or the 8.25 inch? Half an inch of frosting all round seems excessive, but perhaps there are decorative techniques that require that much icing.

💝 it.. Thanks.

When you say you freeze the cake after using the acrylic disk to add buttercream to the cake, do you just place it in the freezer or do you put in in a container or cling wrap? Thanks - Georgia

You freeze your cakes after you crumb coat?

Awesome

Thank you for this awesome video! What type of cake stand is that and where did you purchase it from? Thank you

It seems like freezing or at least refrigerating would make it easier to take off.

Do you think these acrylic disks will be as helpful for doing a semi-naked cake? Or does this technique lend itself better for standard amounts of frosting? Thanks!

hi. thanks for this video1 can you please please do another one using the acrylic discs and then cut the cake so i can see how much frosting is on the edges/sides? i cant decide between the .5 and the .25. i feel sure that i would want the .25 because im sure that will give plenty of frosting, but i just dont want to make the purchase and wish i would have gotten the .5 size. thank you

What is the brand cake turntable you are using?

Waooo u did a geougeus job. I want to practice this method, but where can I buy this acrylic board?

chill it first then take it off you can also tape the parchment on the disk

Can you please tell me what you used before getting the acrylic cake disks? I can’t afford them right now and would love to know what you used before? Thank you

Great to see in real time how this goes...mistakes are great...that is what we learn from. its a great idea with the acrylics. what company is it from? on amazon?

If you put your cake into the fridge or freezer for a few minutes, the parchment will not take off all that frosting.

That frosting looks yummy !!! I of course was here originally to see about the cake boards but what kind of frosting is that ? Do you have a recipe you share ? :)

Where did you buy the acrilyc bord?

you should chill or freeze your cake in between

They put it in the fridge

This can go really good or really bad. Lol.
