hey guys welcome back I’m mate thank you
for joining me today on the king of
random today we’re going to be trying an
experiment suggested by pi rios hi grant
can you try and see what happens if you
put cake mix in a vacuum and get the
bubbles out how would the baked cake
look well pi rios that sounds like a
great experiment to us so today we’re
gonna try it we’ve picked up this bright
blue cake mix which we’re gonna mix up
according to the instructions put in the
vacuum chamber to suck out all the air
and then bake it before we start mixing
ingredients let’s get the oven warming
up the instructions also tell us that we
need to grease and flour our pan before
we pour in the batter
[Music]
the ovens heating up and our pans are
ready for the cake batter so let’s start
mixing our ingredients it’s blue blue
cake mix paste blue
it doesn’t it just ate the cake batter
water all our ingredients are added now
let’s mix it
[Music]
[Applause]
vo tastes all mixed up
[Music]
it’s like cake just very very moist cake
probably shouldn’t eat things with rye
and them but just tastes so good
something I noticed while mixing this up
is this cake better is actually fairly
stiff
I hope you’ve seen our previous video
where we tried using a vacuum chamber on
pancake batter before cooking them this
is much thicker than pancake batter you
can see it’s like barely moving at all
even when the bull has turned completely
sideways we’ll see what kind of effect
and change that has when it goes in the
vacuum chamber it might have a harder
time bubbling than pancake batter does
now I’ll divide this cake batter in to
put half of it in our vacuum chamber and
half of it in one of our prepared pans
that’s great it’s just like this blue
boozy blob down there half of the cake
batter is in the jar let’s pull out the
air and see what happens
[Music]
holy cow that’s amazing that immediately
starts swelling up like a balloon oh my
gosh I thought it was gonna be too thick
holy cow that’s so friggin awesome oh
that’s a thousand times better than what
I thought was gonna happen oh we’re
coming back for a second run it filled
up it collapsed
now it’s filling back up again that’s
weird that almost looks like a baked
cake already oh it’s alive it’s a
boiling roiling sea of cake batter yeah
we’re definitely doing another one just
cuz I want to get that again I had a few
different thoughts of how this was gonna
go firstly I thought it was so stiff
that it wasn’t really gonna do too much
I thought maybe a couple bubbles would
just slowly build up and pop and it
would maybe just sort of look like a
swamp or something like that
this immediately started ballooning up
like as soon as the pressure was changed
inside the chamber it just started
expanding this giant blob of cake
flavored foam and almost filled the
whole chamber so when I turn off the
vacuum chamber and stop everything off
it will actually start to grow back a
little bit as well the cake mix probably
has baking soda and baking powder in it
and when those get wet they start
combining to form carbon dioxide so this
is probably creating its own gases and
then if I turn the vacuum back on I
think it will suck all that built-up co2
out yeah you pull it turn the vacuum
back on and it starts pulling all that
new gas back out it collapses back down
all right we’ve been pulling air out of
this cake batter for several minutes now
and we’ve let it rise its collapsed it
keeps bubbling a little bit but one
interesting thing is the whole tank is
still at almost a vacuum pressure so we
haven’t tried letting off the pressure
to see if the cake collapses even more
when we do that so let’s give that a try
oh snap
that turned dark-colored immediately I
think so much air has been pulled out
that it’s lost the light color given to
it by the air well just feels like cake
batter I don’t know because it has no
air in it it’s it’s like a lot slimy er
looking like it’s it’s not full of
bubbles like a batter should be it’s
just like dense thick slimy still tastes
like cake batter shocking no let’s use
the spatula to scrape this out pour it
into our pan and bake it up
[Music]
I look at the difference in the color of
the dude this is our normal cake better
and this is our cake better that’s been
vacuumed
it’s like wildly different colors that’s
what happens if you pull all the air out
of this oh that is great those cakes are
looking good and while they’re cooking
in the oven we’re going to start mixing
up a new batch and we’re gonna use those
to make some poop emoji cupcakes using
this mold from Rosanna pansino from the
YouTube channel nerdy nummies
[Music]
our cake timer went off so let’s use
these bamboo skewers to test if our
cakes are ready those look very
different from each other
all right the skewer should come out
clean if the cake is finished that’s
looking pretty good and clean now I’m
just gonna test what happened with the
one that we vacuumed Shanker feels more
like brownies and cake all right I think
that’s finished they’ve both been in
there for the same amount of time let’s
take them out and start to let them cool
down we have our second batch all mixed
up but there’s one small change I want
to do I want to use some yellow food
coloring and try and turn this blue cake
green
[Music]
[Music]
there we go it’s not the most intense
green color in the world but it is
greener than it was before and I’m
interested to see how it changes when we
decompress it in the vacuum chamber
first let’s fill three of these cupcake
molds with non vacuumed cake batter the
batter is in the jar let’s turn on the
Machine and suck out the air
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
well that’s even more than last time and
it’s collapsing ah I collapse collapse
oh that is great I love watching that
I’m gonna try cycling some pressure in
and closing it off again to see if that
speeds up the process Oh too fast too
fast
I got splattered everywhere the air
rushing in through the valve hit the
cake batter and splattered it a little
bit didn’t mean to go that quickly there
you go
decompressed slightly green cake batter
let’s scoop a little bit of that out and
put it into our cupcake mold on one of
these I’m gonna try filling it up all
the way because our first cake didn’t
really seem to rise much so I’m not too
worried about it expanding out of the
mold now let’s throw these in the oven
[Music]
all right that’s a thing we’ve got our
normal cake and we’ve got our cake that
was made with the vacuum decompressed
batter let’s cut them open and see how
they turned out one feels pretty normal
nice and light and fluffy cuts easily on
a concave plate which is not the best
surface for it it’s collapsing a little
bit but that’s just because of the shape
of the plate not the cake itself very
soft very airy all right let’s try
cutting open the cake made from our
vacuumed batter still cuts pretty easily
I think it does feel a little bit more
dense not terribly bad wow that almost
looks like gelatin more than it looks
like cake we have less than half of the
height of the normal cake it’s really
squished down let’s test out our dense
cake I’m just gonna be a monster and cut
a piece right out of the middle here
goes it’s not bad but if I took a bite
of that not knowing ahead of time what
it was I’m not sure if I would guess
that it was cake it’s it’s obviously a
dessert it’s sweet it’s got a cake
flavor to it but the texture is so
different that it does it just doesn’t
feel like cake it feels like maybe some
liquid has been added to it or it’s some
sort of gelatin base but yeah very
different when I squish the fluffy cake
they start to look the same
you kind of see tiny bits of liquid
coming out of this cake at some point
I’m wondering if it’s just butter or
water got trapped because there was no
air bubbles anymore and a good way to
make a mess though timer says our
cupcakes are ready let’s give one a test
that came out nice and clean say we’re
ready to go
let’s try D molding our poop emoji
cupcakes and see how they turned out
[Music]
well that’s a little bit of a poop emoji
shape these actually come out more
easily that should be about the same
amount of cupcake batter you can see
that pulling all the air out of it and
the vacuum chamber really made a
difference in how it turned out and kind
of afraid to D mold this one cuz I think
it’s still kind of liquid on the inside
but we’ll see what happens
oh there we go
you know that probably has the best poop
shape of all of them but it is leaking
liquid cake batter I’m gonna squish it
[Music]
Green cupcake poop your poop looks like
this see a doctor immediately he’s
interesting little tunnels and that’s
where the air was trying to rise up out
there you have it cake batter run
through a vacuum chamber and then baked
you don’t get a very light or fluffy
cake it’s still a dessert it’s still
edible some people may even prefer it
that way I like the light fluffy cake
that doesn’t have the concentrated egg
taste and all around I think it’s a
better idea if you don’t include the
vacuum chamber as part of your cake
baking process especially thank you to
Rosana from nerdy nummies for providing
these poop emoji cupcake molds and a
special shout-out to PI Rios as well for
your idea to try the vacuum chamber cake
check your youtube inbox we’re sending
you 25 bucks remember that if you have
any ideas of experiments builds or
projects that you want to see us do on
this channel comment down below if we
pick your idea will send you 25 bucks
thanks for joining us for this
experiment today and we look forward to
the next one talk to you then Alex
really delicious I kind of wish I could
eat it while it was in a vacuum foaming
up like a foam cake balloon oh my gosh
it tastes toke no I’m kidding it tastes
exactly the same just cake hey guys if
you want to catch up with some of the
things I’m doing in my personal life
come follow me on Instagram and Twitter
