What I Did: The concept of “half baking” the pumpkin shape resulted in squishy bread that wouldn’t cut-out easily. Also, my cookie cutter was too big 🙁
My Result:
Next Time I Will: I would avoid this project. I don’t know how it worked in the first place.
The original looks like angel food cake or pound cake, your cake looks more like a spice cake/pumkin bread type recipe?
I’ve made this one before, my center of the pound cake wasn’t perfectly cooked but was well enough for me. try again with using the right cake mixes and i want to say i either slightly froze or at least refrigerated my pumpkin one before cutting to make it easier since it made it more firm
I made this cake multiple imes now with different cutouts. I cooked the first cake completely and then cut it out to put in the other cake. I did end up making the first cake in two flatter pans so I could get more cutouts and pack them in the bread pan tighter and also used a bigger “meatloaf” pan the second time around as the first time the pan was brimming when i added the second cake and spilled over. My downfall was using cookie cutters with too pointy of shapes- I made a ghost with his hands in the air our of while cake and put blue velvet cake over it but the hands started to break off.
