How To Make A Stack Of WAFFLES CAKE For ELEVEN From STRANGER THINGS | Yolanda Gampp | How To Cake It

welcome back to how to cake it i'm yolanda and this week i am taking giant eggo waffles for 11 from stranger things has she had a cake version of waffles [Music] to make these giant waffles i baked eight pounds of my ultimate vanilla cake in two 12-inch round pans once my cakes are baked and cooled i level them remove the carmilation from carmelation wow that's the first i decided caramelization was too long of a word so i'm just going to say carmellation from now on now i need to round out the edges all around the cake on the top and bottom first thing i do is mark along the sides about a third of the way down and then i use a small serrated knife to round out the top edges down to that line i do this to both cakes and then i flip them over and round out the other side now jeremy don't attempt to flip a woman abandoned abandoned he didn't even mention it felt like he was walking on eggshells during the cake flippings now it's time for sir squeeze a lot to help me simple syrup my two waffles i'm gonna simple syrup these waffles on both sides because i don't need a dry waffle you know what i'm saying [Music] so now i need to crumb coat this cake and chill on both sides so i'm going to start with what is the bottom of the waffle crumb coat with my italian wearing buttercream and chill once that crown coat is chilled i'm going to flip my cakes again with no fancy flipping shots and crumb coat the other side and chill now i'm going to ice the top side of these cakes and chill them again these are pretty chili waffles i just want to place a sheet of parchment paper so that when i flip them back right side up i don't rip off all of this buttercream so i'm going to flip them both over so that the bottom side is up which is just the crumb coated side and now i'm going to cover both of them with how do i say eggo colored fondant guess what one of the colors i used was jocelyn ivory ivory and yellow don't forget all of these recipes are in my cake book there's a recipe for simple syrup my ultimate vanilla cake and of course italian meringue buttercream [Music] now i need to trim away the excess but not at the base of the cake about halfway down i've chosen to cover the waffle in two parts top and bottom because waffles have a bit of a seam it's not really a seam it's more like because they're in an iron some of the batter overflows and this is the way i'm going to recreate that so now i'm going to flip these cakes back over so that the top side is up and just remove the parchment paper we are going back out on tour stay tuned we will be in elling we're gonna put all the details that you need below before i cover this top side i need to create well the waffle grid pattern waffle group pattern i need to measure and mark out the grid pattern that will make this a waffle because if i cover it right now it'll just look like [Music] like a chubby pancake which i'm not really going for without a grid is it a waffle if there are no waffle irons in the forest no it's not working once i've marked out my lines i then need to roll a ton of fondant cords and lay them over this grid pattern that i have marked out on the cake so let's get rolling or um there's a lot of footage it's really hard to roll out cords to the same size when you're doing it by hand so what i did is i actually weighed little balls of fondant so like one and a half ounces of fondant and then rolled it until it was all around the same length before i apply these cords to the cake i need to sort of change the shape of them i don't want them to be as rounded so what i did is i used two rulers it's so exciting that's thrilling exactly my voice how exciting it is that could be excited that could be a scene in stranger things it's that thrilling so what i did was i compressed jeremy stop laughing once i've done this to all of my fondant cords i begin to apply them to the cake starting with the first cake i lay all the cords on in one direction and then i take the remaining cords and cut them and fill in in between i was having memories of ice cream cone cake while i did this because i i made that pattern in a similar way there's also like a circle around the waffle it's like the edge of the waffle iron so i laid a circle on top of these cords that was slightly smaller just to mark around and cut the ends of all the cords leaving a circle around while i work on this cake i want to remind you guys about camp cake oh that kind of rhymes yeah well no it's the same words i don't think that's called the right way to rhyme is to use the same word we should send every rapper a newsletter without this info use the same one just use the same word every sentence in the song ends with the same word camp cake is a live stream baking event happening on december 9th where i bake in the comfort of this kitchen and you bake at home new york we're going to be making some great holiday baking projects together step by step there's a link below to register or you can go to how to kick it dot com and the sale price is still on i will see you on december 9th guess what i'm gonna do i'm gonna roll out some fondant cords yeah i'm gonna roll them out just slightly thicker than the other 50 i rolled out and it wasn't 50. it was more like 20. but this time i'm not gonna flatten the cords i'm going to leave them completely round and then i wrapped them around so that they fit perfectly around the grid pattern and trimmed where the fondant met you really need to chill these cakes for a while before we cover them because we need to let these cords get really really cold and stay in place otherwise when we cover it with fondant we're going to squash them or move them around we can't have like a misplaced grid pattern how scary is that put that in stranger things i bet there are misplaced grid patterns in the upside down world i bet you there's no rulers either the name itself tells you what it's about right i want to go right side up now it's finally time to cover the tops of these waffles and make them look like giant waffles i take that same eggo colored fondant and roll it out large enough to cover the waffle and then i drape it over and here's where it gets tricky i need to work all of the fondant down into each sort of square of the grid pattern so what i'm going to do is use a straight pin just to get out some of the air trapped underneath and a soft paintbrush and that brush is going to help me sort of brush it down and release air through the pinhole and then i can go back with my fingertips very carefully and smooth out the fondant within each square because the grid pattern is obviously very square but the waffle is round as you get to the outer edges of the waffle you won't have full squares you might have like little triangles so those are really hard to work the fondant into because the space is really small so if your paint brush pokes a hole don't worry take a little more fondant soften it in your fingertips push it in and then smooth it down with the paintbrush once all the fondant is smoothed into the grid pattern we will address the sides of the cake so just smooth it along the sides with the palm of your hand and then we're going to trim the fondant at that halfway mark and i found it helpful to do it with a pair of kitchen scissors waffle seams aren't even it's overflow so it's usually not even all the way around in my cake book i make waffles in an easier way way less than half the time and tastes delicious and i paired those waffles with fried chicken so make sure to check that out leave a comment below if you have seen my fried chicken and waffle cake in the book hashtag fried chicken and waffle has 11 paired her waffles with fried chicken yet leave me a comment below let me know so to toast these waffles i'm going to toast these waffles guess who i invited back to the kitchen to help me with these waffle cakes bernie guys can we cheer for bernie or something he does a lot wow that was not i don't think you realize how hard bernie works i don't want to toast it as much as the crust on my pizza cake because i find that like frozen waffles when you put them in the toaster they don't really brown that much make sure to brew lay underneath the seam as well and then all around the side and finally the grid pattern which was really a lot of fun it's okay if one side of your waffle looks more toasted than the other i think that makes it look more realistic i feel like they brown slightly or they're burnt is anyone with me on this don't you agree so they're like avocados yeah exactly they're either like not ripe enough not ripe enough not ripe but i'm not sure it's not ripe enough over ripe now you need to brulee the second waffle you're a pro now go ahead now i'm going to chill these giant waffle cakes and let them cool completely and in the meantime i want to make some butter well some butter colored buttercream so i use two shades of yellow to color some buttercream and i keep a pound of butter beside me to match it up and then i just place that buttercream into a bowl pack it down and chill it until it's completely firm i just use an ice cream scoop and form i think i made like four scoops of butter colored buttercream and i place them on a plate until i'm ready i'll never forget the first time i went to like a breakfast chain in the states and i ordered waffles and the butter was in a scoop and i was like what is that honestly i was like is this did they put ice cream on my waffles because it was like whipped butter and the scoop was quite big i had never seen that before for the syrup on top of these waffles i am going to use of course 100 canadian maple syrup so i'm going to mix my maple syrup with corn syrup about half and half stir it together just to thicken up the maple syrup finally i'm ready to serve these waffles i'm ready to put them out so 11 can come get them it will only take her 11 hours to eat them if you're just here for the cake
