The Essential Cake Decorating Techniques

Article Category: Cooking

Author Name: chickie maxwell

Cake decorating has been around for almost a hundred years on Earth, and after each and every month ever since, more and more innovations and techniques have been introduced and perfected all around the world. During the evolution of cake styles and decorations, some techniques and touches on cakes were omitted, while some of these have stood the test of time. Whichever the case may be, it is important for both old-fashioned and contemporary bakers and pastry chefs alike to practice, remember, and perfect the different styles and techniques of cake decorating.

One of the most popular techniques in cake decorating is applying borders. Most of the time, cakes take form of a rectangular prism, and it is for this reason why most bakers stylistically prefer to place borders on their edges. The number of ways that they could do this design is unlimited, but the best example out of all of them is with the use of cake icing. Cake icing has also been around for centuries, and it has beautified almost a million cakes ever since. Speaking of cake icing, the stiff kind of icing has been used for another technique called drop flower application. Drop flowers are decorative pieces that add color to cakes, and they are most usually applied on birthday cakes to add a more kiddy-like appeal and flair. The best way to apply these little doodads is to line them up in a row with alternating colors in order to create a joyful visual pattern. A special example of flowering technique is called the fleur-de-lis, also known as lily flower as some common people might call it, which is a style that was popularized by the Frenchmen. French bakers have used this style to catch the attention of those in the French royalty, and it has flawlessly worked ever since.

The next styles to be mentioned will make use of the cake's wide areas and spaces as how an artist would on his or her canvas. One special style called basket weaving is a special kind of cake decoration technique that involves applying cake frosting in a way that it would literally resemble a woven basket. Utmost care must be taken while utilizing this technique in order to make sure that the so-called canvas will not be compromised. Another technique to be considered by bakers is called filling in, which involves beautifying the whole cake area with loads of designs like stars and letters in order to make sure that there are no dull places left on the cake canvas. Lastly, a technique called latticework is actually quite similar with basket weaving, but its main difference with the latter is that latticework creates wider spaces in between partitions that are separated by piped lines. This technique has notably attracted the masses these days due to its simple yet classy design and appearance.

There are actually countless manners on how people can style their own cakes, but as far as cake decorating goes, the combinations that they could come up with are as limitless as their imagination.
