I have never baked a cake larger than 13x9. Should I use the strips for the large sheet cakes?
I normally bake 11x15 cakes. And I learned from CC that you can also use the flower nail in place of the strips. Place the flower nail upside down (with the tip pointing up) in your cake pan and bake. Its worked well so far for me.
I think I will run to walmart tonight and buy some. I would love to get the cake baked and ready to frost before the shower. It is my daughter's baby shower and the more I get out of the way now the better off I am.
Another question - I tried fbct and it just looked terrible, so I did another one, but am using the wrong side as if I did it on the cake. Is there a different way to do this?
Jessireb, for the FBCT I always print the image in mirror image so it backwards when it prints. The when I flip onto the cake it right side up. If the makes any sense, sorry I've only done one.
Makes sense. I will be playing around with it a little more. I will have to post a picture of it when I get it all done.
I bake my first 12x18 this past weekend and my strips didnt fit around since i only have 2. Anyway, I took advice from someone here and used 2 empty aluminum cans and my only one flower nail. Work perfectly!!! I think next time I will buy more flower nail since I like them better than the strips.
I baked my sheetcake tonight. I used 5 flower nails (probably over kill) but it seemed to work. I won't know for a couple of weeks how it tastes (this one is heading to the freezer).
