I had two cake orders this past weekend....Both went off well, except for one thing...which I have never experienced before.
I had one cake that was a 10" (two-layer) cake, and there was a wolder mold with the doll pick, made to look like a hawaiian girl. So I get the cake all smooth, I put the wonder mold on top and I start putting the icing on to look like a grass skirt....I move the cake around, and notice I have a huge bubble protruding from my icing. I use the crusting buttercream (viva method) so I'm not sure why it would get a air bubble underneath it. I poked it with a toothpick and then re-smoothed it, and continued what I was doing....Before too long I notice two more air bubbles....So I stop and fix those as well. Then when I get to the place I am meeting the lady to give her the cakes she ordered, I notice a big air bubble, and a smaller one as well. Luckily she is a friend of mine, and she wasn't mad about it or anything...
What could have caused this? I need to avoid this at all costs for any other cakes....What are your thoughts??
I do have pictures of the bubbles, I will post them when I get to my computer..
Thanks in advance!
Do you freeze your cakes? I have had air bubbles under my BC before when I didn't let them defrost all the way. Now I make sure they are at room temperature all the way through before I frost them and I don't put them back in the fridge after I have decorated.
