Cake Decoration - Icing and a Cake Box Does it Every Time

In this article we will explore some ideas to start you off in your adventure in cake decorating and presentation. It includes decorating tools, techniques and plus how to enhance your cake with an appropriate cake box.

The actual techniques and steps are readily available everywhere in books and on the Internet so if you like anything here, just do some searching and you will find what you need. You will also find it easy to make or buy the perfect cake box to further enhance your creation. Don't worry if any of the ideas sound too advanced (they are not!). With a little practice and some enthusiasm, you will perfect them along the way.

A Bouquet of Icing Roses

This works wonderfully on almost any cake, and looks especially elegant and endearing on a wedding or Valentine's cake. In terms of actual difficulty, this is one of the simplest tricks around, with many tutorial sites teaching you various ways to craft an icing rose. When you know how to create one, you will easily make several more and you are done. Combining red and pink roses covered with white icing over your cake is good design for younger generation of cake or pastry lovers. White or light chocolate roses are fantastic on dark or pure chocolate flavor cake.

A hint when using icing roses is to ensure you factor in the extra height that they will add to your cake. The last thing you need is finding out at the last minute that your cake is too high for the cake box that you have purchased.

Lined Hearts

It is easy to see why hearts are as popular as roses when it comes to icing decorations; since they seem fantastic and effortless to create! With minimal practice, you can make nice symmetrical heart shapes that fit into any cake seamlessly. Using an icing bag and selected tips (there are heart-shaped tips too for added effect), draw out a simple heart shape and you are done! You can line the heart shapes around the circumference of the cake (hearts look best with round cakes), or in a single horizontal line at the center. If you are really looking to spice things up, you can stack one heart on top of another in staggered manner too.Presenting your cake in a heart shaped box will make it look even more impressive.

Drawings

Aside from 3D structures like roses and hearts, you can also use icing to draw shapes and designs on your cake. You can obtain this if you have fondant icing using a very thin icing end, on top of a leveled layer. As for what to draw though, I'll leave it to your imagination!

If you are a bit light on in the creative department look for a shape you like in a book or magazine, trace it, cut out the shape then place it on the cake and pipe around it.Put it in a super stunning cake box that will make it look a million dollars and people will not even notice its simplicity.

These are just some ideas for you to start off your cake decorating. Never be intimidated to blend and combine all and see what you can make out of it. There are literally limitless ways for you to decorate a cake so make use of your own creativity to do the rest! Also, remember that if you are using a cake box that you choose one that complements and enhances your decorating efforts.

Using melted chocolate as cake decoration?

I'm making a cake this weekend and what I'm planning on doing is melting white chocolate, using food coloring (I'm thinking red) and then using a pastry bag to decorate and/or write on the cake. I've never done this before so I'm wondering...will the heat of the melted chocolate cause the frosting to get melty as well? Has anyone done this before?

It depends on what type of food coloring you use. If you use powdered food coloring, it should work. If you use liquid food coloring, it could cause your chocolate to seize and turn clumpy. With chocolate, any water that gets into it will make it clump and seize. I have heard there is a special coloring sold at some craft stores. As far as the melting of the icing, it shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure your careful. White chocolate will burn very easily if your not careful. Melt it just enough for it to flow and all the chips or pieces are melted. Also, white chocolate is hard to get the right consistancy. Play with it on a practice piece of cloth to see if it works for you. I'd check Michael's for their colorings. Good luck.

Should You Start A Cake Decorating Business Or Cupcake Business?

If you love cake decorating, imagine getting paid to do what you love! You can when you start your own cake decorating business or cupcake business.

Jennifer James, author of the FabJob Guide to Become a Cake Decorator, says there are many benefits when you become a professional cake decorator and start a cake decorating business (also known as a cake design business) or cupcake business.

"There's never been a better time to start up a cake decorating business," says Jennifer. "With the low-carb craze over with, there has been a return to the idea of eating for pleasure, ushered in largely by the popular book French Women Don't Get Fat. Single servings and the personal touch are in - cupcakes are very popular right now, as are gourmet mini-cakes." Here is Jennifer's advice about the cake design business and why it's a great time to start a cake decorating business:

Professional cake decorators tap into the fact that people love to feel special, and are always looking for something new and unique. Clients who are tired of the supermarket's tired-old sheet cake with a cartoon character are looking for handmade, out-of-the ordinary cakes that truly reflect the theme of the celebration... and when they do, they'll come to you.

Cakes are getting more creative all the time, and the only limitation is your imagination. Three-dimensional designs are in vogue right now, resulting in cakes that look like pillows, animals, handbags, or whatever you can dream up. Contemporary cake towers rising up many feet in the air and can lean every which way, stabilized by mysterious forces known only to the cake decorator (that is, you!)

And it doesn't stop there. How about a cake + cupcake combo, with each cupcake sporting a unique design, or personalized for each guest? Floral toppers or edible pearls just might complete an elegant look perfectly. The finishing materials (glazes and dusting powders) available on today's market let you give your cake and decorations a look that is so real, your clients will hardly believe they are made of sugar.

Not only are people looking for custom, creative cakes, they are willing to pay for them too. The average amount spent on a wedding has nearly doubled in the last 20 years, and the average cost of wedding cake is $543, according to the Bridal Association of America. Prices of artisan cakes for special occasions range from $3 to $10 or even more per slice, depending on the complexity of the design.

If you're wondering if cake decorating is the right business for you, here are some more benefits of this career according to Jennifer:

Be Creative

If you want to work with your hands and experience with all five senses, cake decorating is the career for you, from smelling the yummy baking, to tasting new flavors of icing or filling, to piping delicate beads or roses on your cakes and cupcakes. No wonder many cake decorators call themselves sugar artists!

"I was involved in early childhood education, but I wanted to switch careers to something that would challenge my creative outlets. I learned that I had this talent and discovered a passion for the art of designing cakes. Creative talent and passion are so important," says acclaimed cake decorator Yvonne Zensner.

Be Your Own Boss

No more taking orders from anyone else - other than your many customers, of course! When you run your own cake decorating business, you make the decisions. You can choose to specialize in anything from wedding cakes, to children's birthday cakes, to cupcakes, to cakes shaped like fantasy castles... whatever you most enjoy. As boss of your own cake decorating, you decide your policies, your prices, and when you're going to take those well-deserved days off.

Let Them Eat Cake

By "them" we mean you, your friends, and your family. When you start a cake decorating business you'll be able to practice your new ideas by making cakes for your own family celebrations, or liven up a mid-week meal with some cake "leftovers" you cut off while shaping and creating. You can even save some cash when you give your cakes for wedding and birthday presents. It's great practice, and you'll land additional clients whenever your cakes or cupcakes are seen and admired.

You Can Start Right Now

A cake decorating business can be started simply or part-time if you wish, in many cases right from your own home. If you already bake cakes or cupcakes as a hobby, you may very well have much of the equipment on hand that you will need to get started. You don't need a certificate to call yourself a professional cake decorator or cake designer, either - you're in business as a professional cake decorator as soon as you are paid for your very first cake.

If you're ready to tap into the lucrative and growing cake decorating market, don't wait any longer. It's time to turn your pipe dreams into piping bags, trade in your overtime for oven mitts, and create your own sweet success story by starting a cake decorating business.

A Look at a Brief History History of Cake Decorating

The history of cake decorating is long. However, to cut to the chase, the cake is the ever present item when it comes to party. We can not think about any celebration with out the cake. May that be a birthday, wedding, anniversary or baby shower cake is always present as a part of our celebration. Every occasion in our life is celebrated by baking and decorating the cake.

Even though in ancient times the Egyptians knew how to bake a cake the history of cake decorating can be traced back to the 17th century. At that time the pans to bake the cake were introduced across the Europe.

Even though cakes were baked in the mid 17th century, elaborately decorated cakes were the monopoly of the rich and famous. Europe's aristocracy would display elaborately decorated cakes at their banquets.

History of cake decorating took another turn after 200 years. Around mid 19th century the French began to include a decorated cake as a part of dessert at the end of the meal. It was a sweet course after your meal is over. This started the tradition to eat cake as a dessert. Delicately decorated cakes began to make their appearance at the dining tables. Initially it was just France but it quickly spread across Europe.

As people were trying out new things in technology, during 1840 production of baking soda and baking powder had started and with the help of these things baking became that much easier. Around that time temperature controlled ovens started to come in the market. Temperature controlled ovens with the availability of baking soda and powder made cake baking become all the more easy.

Over the years cake baking evolved and people began to identify the cake decorating with different methods. The Lambeth Method of decorating the cake uses dimensional over piping of borders which are very intricate. It uses one layer of icing over the other to get three dimensional effects. Joseph Lambeth published a book titled 'the Lambeth Method of Cake decoration and practical Pastries'. In this book he described step by step instructions for piping embellished borders.

Wilton Enterprises started a school for cake decorating for interested people in 1929.Dewey McKinley Wilton was a sugar artist who began the cake decorating business during the great depression. He began to decorate the wedding cakes for famous hotels and clubs. As the Wilton method became popular, in the year 1947 the Wiltons began to market the cake decorating products.

As more and more people began to decorate the cake many manufacturers came out with cake decorating kits of their own. With the help of these kits the job of cake decorating became easier. Apart from the cake decorating kits the icing also can be bought ready made. All that was left is to use the material and create a beautiful looking cake.

Even today the cake decorating industry is thriving. It is an integral part of the sugar craft industry. It is becoming a popular art form. In the North America unique styles of cake decorating has been developed. So is the case with Australia, South Africa and North Western Europe.
