The provided reference material is insufficient to give a comprehensive answer. The video mentioned is about removing cupcake frosting stains, which is a type of cake stain, but cake stains can come from many sources.
Since I cannot give a complete answer on removing all cake stains, based on the given reference, I can provide information on removing cupcake frosting stains specifically.
Here's a general approach to removing cupcake frosting stains from fabric, based on typical stain removal techniques:
Removing Cupcake Frosting Stains
-
Act Fast: The quicker you address the stain, the easier it will be to remove.
-
Scrape Off Excess: Gently scrape off any excess frosting from the fabric using a dull knife or the edge of a spoon. Be careful not to spread the stain.
-
Blot the Stain: Use a clean, white cloth or paper towel to blot the stain, working from the outside in. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain.
-
Pre-treat the Stain: Apply a stain remover or a mixture of mild detergent and water to the stain. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
-
Launder the Item: Wash the item according to the care label instructions. Check the stain before drying. If the stain is still visible, repeat steps 3-5.
-
Stubborn Stains: If the stain persists, you can try using a mixture of white vinegar and water or a commercial stain remover specifically designed for food stains. Always test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area of the fabric first.
Important Considerations:
- Fabric Type: Different fabrics may require different cleaning methods. Always check the care label before attempting to remove a stain.
- Colorfastness: Test any cleaning solution on a hidden area of the fabric to ensure it doesn't cause discoloration.
- Professional Cleaning: For delicate fabrics or stubborn stains, consider taking the item to a professional cleaner.
