For those who are fond of deserts, it is really hard to imagine a birthday party or wedding without at least one cake to top it off. The best part is that you can make your own decorated cakes using the most delicious recipes available. Even if you don’t have any experience in baking, it will not take you long to learn how to bake a cake and decorate it to your taste. It will even be easier if you have at least a basic knowledge of the culinary arts.
If you are interested in trying out this cake-baking hobby, it is essential for you to find the best recipes available. There are several kinds of recipes for decorated cakes, so you should have no problem coming up with one. You can even try combining different kinds of flavors, if you have an unlimited budget. For instance, you can try a combination of strawberry and chocolate for a richer flavor or a combination of chocolate and vanilla for a more subtle flavor. Just remember that you will be making a large cake and you may need extra help at times.
However, if you feel that you are still uncertain about how to go about decorating a cake, you can get some ideas from magazines and the internet. Just remember that there are certain guidelines that must be followed when you decorate a cake. For instance, it is important for you to start the decorating at least a week before the event so that the cake can be ready by the wedding ceremony. This is especially important if you are hiring a decorated cake designer. Make sure that you will be having enough time to finish all the decorations.
One of the most common mistakes that people make when they are decorating a cake is to overstep the limit and overcomplicating things. For example, adding too many frosting flavors can ruin the effect of a beautifully decorated cake. So, it is important that you only add the frostings that you think will work well together. Also, it is very important to pay attention to the decorations as well. It is best to follow the care instructions carefully.
There are also some tips on how to decorate cakes. First of all, you need to decide whether you will have a round, square or any other shape cake. You can also get help from your friends on what kind of shaped cake to get. Next, choose a color for your cake. Usually, white and yellow cakes are considered to be the “white” colors, while pink and red ones are considered to be the “red” colors. There are also decorations that you can use to add more flavor to the cake.
When you have already chosen the color of the cake and the shape of the cake, you can now start to do some basic decoration. For example, if you are going to have a simple and small cake, you can paint some colorful frosting designs on the cake. Or, if you want to have a multi-colored cake, it would be easier to decorate the cake by using different colors of icing. Another great tip for beginners in decorating cakes is to choose simple designs first and then after getting the hang of it, you can try more advanced stuff.
After you have painted on the cake, you can move on to the next step of decorating the cake. For this, you will need a decorating bag, a toothpick, some raspberries, a decorating wheel and some pipe cleaners. The first step when doing this is to outline the cake with the raspberries. You can trace the pattern with your finger or a flat object. Once the outline is done, you can fill the entire cake with raspberries and pipe decorations around the perimeter of the cake.
After that, you can move to step three. With your bag, you will need to prepare a food coloring for the cake and mixing bowls. The color you choose will reflect the mood of the cake. For example, if it is a bright color, the cake designer may use red icing to make it look bright and festive. You should also make sure that the cake is fully baked before applying the icing. For the last step, you need to decorate the rest of the cake with icing.
