There was a small thread yesterday asking for filling ideas, i posted a bunch and then got a few recipe requests, so I posted on my blog with my favorite recipes for lemon and orange curd, whipped cheesecake filling (a little bit different than MacsMoms, but not really), and brown sugar buttermilk cake

I am soo jealous of all of the fee samples everyone has gotten from Amoretti. I remember reading that someone else from Canada was going to get samples, but they had to pay for the shipping, but I don't remember seeing if they ordered samples or how much the shipping was.. anyone have any idea? Thanks!

Please don't order samples if you don't plan to purchase the products. It's hurtful to the company, and takes advantage of their generosity.

I do fully intend on purchasing in the future, however at this time I am not really experienced with the flavourings and cannot afford to spend a tonne on things that I don't know if they will work well for me or not. Plus being in Canada we have to pay duty and taxes etc on anything we order from the US so I really need to be sure about items before I invest in them. Sorry if my question came off in the wrong way. I am not the type to take advantage of a company in that way I am just trying to be fiscally responsible.

Are you talking about the chocolate recipe I submitted? It is made with choc cake mixes and you don't have to use the chocolate extract - just use vanilla instead.
And it calls for brewed coffee, but it can made with instant coffee (prepared just like you would make yourslef a cup of coffee). Decaf is fine. The only reason coffee is used is because it enhances the chocolate flavor, but it can be omitted, using water in it's place.

I didn't mean to imply that you were, I just know what many, many people from CC got samples from them, but I am doubtful that all of those people had any intent to purchase, is all.
I know they shipped FedEx when I got them. Maybe you can check fedex shipping rates to canada?

I'm from Canada and ordered from Amoretti. The did not charge me for shipping, they said they would but told me after I received the first one was free after that I had to pay, Fair enough.
They have called me and finally sent me a price list but I have yet to put in an order with them. Their stuff is good but I only bake for fun, family so it is a little to expensive for me. Your right about stuff coming here. I have to watch the stuff I buy because when I pay the extras its no longer a good deal.

sayhellojana -
I just saw your post about banana cake with dulce de lecha (sp?). I posted on page 193 about the butterscotch cake I made with carmel pecan frosting (the frosting recipe is linked in my post). I think that frosting would be FABULOUS on a banana cake! In fact, that is one of the next ones on my list to try. I already bought the banana pudding!
![sayhellojana Cake Central Cake Decorator Profile](http://cdn001.cakecentral.com/avatars/4/4c/100x100_658601_sayhellojana_IWcG.jpeg)
I'll take a look at the frosting recipe. I LOVE pecans, too, so it deffinantly sounds up my ally

I originally posted this maybe back in 2005:
Hostess® Twinkie Creme Filling
2 teaspoons very hot water
rounded 1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups marshmallow creme (1 7-ounce jar)
1/2 cup shortening
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Combine the salt with the hot water in a small bowl and stir until salt is dissolved. Let this mixture cool.
Combine the marshmallow creme, shortening, powdered sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl and mix well with an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy.
Add the salt solution to the filling mixture and combine.
Makes 1 1/2 cups.

I have a dilemma. I have to make 2 12-inch square red velvet cakes (2 layers each). I have a red velvet recipe that my mil gave me a while back (before I ever even got into caking) that is really yummy but I'm not sure it will be sturdy enough for decorating like the tried and true WASC. The recipe uses a butter recipe DH mix (says can not be substituted), eggs, red food coloring, baking soda, buttermilk, vanilla, vinegar, stick of marg., and a little cocoa.
I guess what I'm thinking is the buttermilk and vinegar are 2 things that might give the red velvet cake that red velvet flavor and they aren't included in the WASC version in the google doc. I feel torn--I kind of want to stick with what I know is yummy but I also want my cakes to be sturdy and easy to decorate (not to mention I need a lot of batter for 4 layers of 12 inch squares!).
So, what do ya'll think? Any suggestions? Thanks so much! This thread has been so amazing! It's defiently turned me into a WASC user (no matter what flavor cake I make) so you can see why I'm torn!!

If I add coconut milk to a mix should I cut back on the oil?

No. It would be similar to adding coconut flavored coffee creamer which also has a high fat content. The creamer actually adds better coconut flavor than the milk.

Macs, it wasnt your chocolate recipe, just the regular wasc recipe. It says any mix, so I am hoping chocolate will be ok!

Just a quick thought on the RV recipe - I made this and used it for a shower this past weekend. I got to have a piece of it and while it was VERY Good - I would suggest using Buttermilk for the liquid and adding some vinegar to the mix also (maybe a tsp for half recipe?) That's the only difference in all the other RV recipes that I've read. I think those two ingredients give the RV it's RV taste (JMO) I think next time I make it I will make those changes and see how it goes. Other then that mine turned out well!
Okay--I guess this is what I am thinking about doing too--has anyone tried this yet?
![GrandmaG Cake Central Cake Decorator Profile](http://cdn001.cakecentral.com/avatars/b/be/100x100_612041_grandmag_vSZO.jpeg)
For my RV I always use yellow cake mix with chocolate pudding and buttermilk. I don't use vinegar unless I'm out of buttermilk then I add vinegar to milk or soy milk to make it sour. It really turns out good!

Hi Everyone! I wanted to let you know that I made cosmopolitan WASC last night. OMG, sooooo good! I ate the trimmings off one cake and a cupcake that I made with the rest of the batter! It really did taste like a cosmo drink. I think nxt time I might just add some red food coloring to it so that the cake is red. I will be making the carmel frapuccino and white russian this weekend, I will let you know how it goes

Hi All,
I know that this has nothing to do with Red Velvet....but I have a question about cookies and cream filling and figured this is the best place to ask.
I can't get bettercream so is it ok to mix a package of cookies n'cream pudding mix into SMBC? If so at what stage would I add it?
I know that the goole doc. has a recipe but my mom loves SMBC and I am making her birthday cake..
Thanks

I used the cookies and cream pudding in my buttercream for the c & c cake and it worked perfectly.

Oh...but I don't know about in the SMBC...I'd be curious to know too. I just used it in regular buttercream.
![GrandmaG Cake Central Cake Decorator Profile](http://cdn001.cakecentral.com/avatars/b/be/100x100_612041_grandmag_vSZO.jpeg)
You can mix the cookies and cream pudding mix with 2 C whipping cream and whip together. Makes a great filling!
![sayhellojana Cake Central Cake Decorator Profile](http://cdn001.cakecentral.com/avatars/4/4c/100x100_658601_sayhellojana_IWcG.jpeg)
I use IMBC, but I know they are similar. I would mix the pudding with a TINY bit of milk, just enough to dissolve it, and add that in once the icing is done.

Okay. I knew it was bound to happen when I posted my flavor list in a very large public forum, but would the owner of this website
http://www.bamcakes.com/flavors.html
please at least change the wording and titles of your list so there is no confusion about copy-catting? This font ~ was even left in there... Orange Valencia is my personal favorite, but is it really also yours?
(My own flavor descriptions have already been changed)
Thanks.

Aww, that is so UNCOOL. Please respect the person that shares with us (MacsMom) and reword it at least. I know what you mean, it was copied word for word. No mention of the person who shared it all neither.
I feel you MacsMom
