what is the shelf life?

[fairytalecakes]

@DaDorkiieWeirdo hi im not sure what the shelf life is. i guess as long as the shelf life of shortening, oil and flour is. i go through a batch of this about every two-three weeks.

thanks, I so need to try that then,does size matter?or is the nail only one size?

[fairytalecakes]

@photogrl001 it hink they come in two sizes...it doesnt matter which one

[photogrl001]

what is with the nail in the middle sticking out?I'm sure there is a purpose.what type of nail is it?

[fairytalecakes]

@photogrl001 HI! The nail is a metal flower nail. I grease it up put it in the pan for ckaes that are 10" or larger. It wrks like a heating core for more even baking

my mom wants me to make her a sheet cake this saturday for her sunday school class. how do i make a sheet cake with "Duncan Hines" box cake (yellow color, butter flavor--you know, the plain stuff) haha. Anyway, do I just double the recipe and cooking time or how do I go about it?

[fairytalecakes]

From what I've read a cake mix give you approx 4-5 cups of batter. So:

1/4 sheet (9x13) takes approx 7 cups

1/3 sheet (11x15) takes 10 cups

1/2 sheet (12x18) takes 14 cups

[mchambless101]

@fairytalecakes Thank you so much!

[mchambless101]

OMFG THANK YOU! I thought I was going to go insane with cakes busting up when I tried to get them out of the pan! I could hug you!

[fairytalecakes]

You are welcome!! just remember you need to get them out between 15-20 min after they come out of the oven or they will stick.

I just want to say I love you and keep up the great videos!

[fairytalecakes]

Thank you so much!!!

or u can get a stick of butter....unrap about 1/2 inch on he top and rub it on the pan thats what i do with all my pans dark light big small and they come out just like that just a faster way to ignor the mess and fats=]

[fairytalecakes]

Ive tried that. its never worked for me. i guess we each have what works best for us. i love this pan release lol

[rlf4403tube]

Hi, shortening and oil and flour... no eggs at all? Just curious... oil and shortening seems a lot of fats, or maybe i am just ignorant.

[fairytalecakes]

Hi. This is NOT a cake recipe.

This recipe is for pan release (which is the same as Baker's Joy) It is used for greasing the pans so the cake won't stick to it. Usually you'd grease the pan then add flour to the pan, pour the batter in and bake. This pan release works much better and is cheaper than buying the canned stuff.

[luvaofallfelines]

Thank you for the tip. I will certainly try this. But before i do, you never said what exactly was the correct even amount of flour, shortening, and oil. Please let me know before i destroy another cake.

[fairytalecakes]

Hi. Its equal amounts of all three, depending on how much you want to make. I usually do one cup of each.

[hdblissbomb]

forgive my ignorance (please!), but what is the stick in the middle of the cake batter?

[fairytalecakes]

duh me. i should have explained it. that is a metal flower nail. for cakes 10" or larger it is recommended to use a heating core for even baking. i just use a metal flower nail. works great! make sure you grease it as well

[hdblissbomb]

Thanks for the reply. - is that just soft cakes ( likes sponges etc) or also for fruit cakes etc? I've never heard of that before.

thanks also for the release recipe - I'll give that a try.

[fairytalecakes]

I've never done it with fruit cakes, just regular sponge like cakes.

[fairytalecakes]

You are welcome. It works superdeduperty great!

[SeriousCakes]

Nice! I have been wanting to try this but I never remember until I'm actually pouring the batter into pans! lol! Thank you!!
