hi foodtube carry em here now I’ve got
an amazing quick tip to show you I’m
going to turn this single beautiful
chocolate cake into three so you can
easily make the chocolate celebration
cake in Jamie’s new comfort food book
using only two things eight of these bad
boys cocktail sticks or toothpicks or
they’re more commonly known in my house
and a nice sharp bread knife let me show
you what to do so first we’re going to
need two cocktail sticks and we’re going
to put one up say a third of the way up
and we’re going to put it in half way
then we’re going to get the second one
and then we’re going to put that in two
thirds of the way up half way again and
then we’re going to turn it around and
do the same in the three o’clock
position and then the second one
two-thirds of the way in now it’s really
easy guys when you’re doing this if you
use a cake stand because it’s easier to
turn the cake and it’s a little bit
higher off the surface so again in the
six o’clock a third of the way up and
then two thirds same thing again now
here’s where it gets fun this can be
quite nerve-racking so take your time
take as long as you want
don’t worry don’t panic is actually
quite easy as long as you just stay calm
and concentrate so I’ve got my knife and
what I’m going to do I’m going to rest
it on top of this cocktail stick and I’m
going to slowly move the knife backwards
and forwards and let the knife do all of
the work I’m not putting any pressure
whatsoever
turn it around pull it on top of this
cocktail stick and do the same no
pressure
the further round the cake you get
you’ll see that the top starts to lift
as you’re meeting the last point where
you cut so as you can see I’ve cut all
the way through this now and I’m going
to lift it off and put it onto a plate
I’ve got over here which is another
really important tip guys make sure you
have two plates standing by
we’ll get rid of these and we’re going
to do exactly the same thing so on top
of the cocktail stick again and what the
cocktail sticks do is they act as a
guide so that you don’t go all uneven
and wonky now I know this is not perfect
it’s not completely straight but that’s
what’s so great about this even if
you’re not great I don’t bake all the
time I’m more of a savory kind of cook
but I do like to make a cake every now
and again and if there’s a special
occasion where you want to make
something really extravagant but that’s
not that difficult like the celebration
cake in Jamie’s new book this is the
perfect way to do it so there you have

mate Jamie’s book comfort food it’s got
