I never tasted caramel cake and probably will never make one BUT I was curious to see how you do it. What i think is the best of it for me, is: you stayed calm, you did not joke in between, there is no disturbing music, you did not rise your voice and/or talk interchangeably fast and slow, you did not stress, there was no hurrying and I felt that you really KNOW your work and how to teach it.

Thank you for posting this recipe. Many years ago a co-worker made a caramel cake for one of my bridal showers, and I loved it! I am definitely going to try this! I do have a helpful suggestion for you if you don’t mine. I do this and it is soooo helpful. Before you put your first cake layer on the plate, put about 4 inch strips of parchment paper around the outer edge of your cake plate and then place your first layer of your cake on it. Frost the entire cake like normal and when you are finished, gently pull out the pieces of parchment paper and your cake plate is clean and free of any drips of frosting! Thank you again for a wonderful, informative, and relaxing video!

How long does this frosting take from start to finish: all ingredients out & measured, then put in pans and start cooking, all the way to ready to frost the cake? Also, I noticed you used only 1 beater in your mixer - can 2 be used? How long was the beating stage in total? When refrigerated, doesn't it get VERY hard? How do you cut it then? Or can you leave it out to cool then cut it? If refrigerated, do you take it out before serving to warm up the cake?
@KrystalJenkinsBakes
Жыл бұрын
Most of your questions are answered in the video. Each time you make it things will vary on timing. You can use 2 beaters. I just the whisk, which is why there was only one.. I would think it would take 2-3 hours total including the baking of the cake. It does get hard in the fridge but you can still cut it. It isn't like a rock. I would always eat it room temp if you can.

Hi. Thank you so much for this recipe. I'm a home baker and the only cake I have not offered on my menu is caramel cake. I was so excited when I stumbled upon your recipe. But now I have a caramel cake due tomorrow and my caramel isn't perfectly smooth. The first time I made the caramel, it came out perfectly, although it was too runny to put on at 170°. Maybe my house is too warm. But the second and third time I made it, there was a weird texture. At first I thought it was the flour, maybe it wasn't incorporated well. So I made it again. This time I mixed the sugar and flour together really well before I started. I'm still getting this weirdness on my tongue. It is not gritty but it isn't perfectly smooth. What could I be doing wrong? 🙁 Thank you.

I would make sure you aren't overcooking it when you're waiting on it to come to softball stage. I did that a few times, it's still delicious, just not the same texture. Also, make sure your milk/sugar/butter mixture is at a low boil before you pour the skillet caramel in. Honestly the ones that come out the best for me are the ones that are boiling so much that it almost boils over when I pour the skillet caramel in it (but don't let that happen because it's a mess. haha). I made 4 batches this weekend and 2 of them were perfect. The other two were acceptable. And whip it really well. That makes such a huge difference. More air incorporated means it'll be fluffy and not sugary. Caramel is tricky! Good luck!!

YES! It stores well for days in the fridge! I've even left one on the counter for a day or two with no problem!

Do you have to use a cast iron skillet?

As long as it’s not a super thin skillet, any should work. You just have to make sure it doesn’t get burnt if you use a thing skillet.

Personal preference, and because that isn't the authentic way my grandmother used to do it.

@@KrystalJenkinsBakes well I most certainly respect that. I'm a self taught baker/wannabe decorator who has spent years on finding and creating that perfect recipe of all types. Sometimes the easy way isn't always the best way, just sometimes those long drawn out processes are what tastes soooo good.....baking or cooking. So I thank you for showing how it is SUPPOSED to be done.

@@jennifermack5804 You're welcome! Thank you for watching the video and asking the question! I've been a self taught baker and decorator for about 5 years now, and I learn something new every single day. :) The only "hack" I've found worth the shortcut is doctoring up a white cake mix for a wedding or almond cake. Everything else seems to be worth the extra time.

It helps to thicken it and keep it from just being caramel sauce

@@KrystalJenkinsBakes OK I thought so. I have made this 3 times and it is good. The last 2 times the flour did not completely blend in. Any suggestions? Also I did use the thermometer on my recent icing and it stalled on 220!

You didn’t have to do this in two steps. You could wait for the butter and sugar to melt slowly and then once the butter begins to brown, add the evaporated milk, stir to incorporate and then turn off the burner and let it cool down completely for about an hour. It ends up being the perfect consistency but still spreadable and able to hold it’s shape.
