Cake Decorating for Newbies

Article Category: Cooking

Author Name: chickie maxwell

For the common layman , cake decorating is an intimidating, yet endearing dream that any person could ever wish for. However, as unattainable as it may seem for a few people, there are actually some forms of workarounds and cheats, as some may prefer to call it, which could enable even a normal person to beautifully and skillfully decorate his or her cake. The good part of it here is that preparing the cake does not require any kind of skill or competence. All it needs are the basic tools for the job and the enthusiasm of the person to perform it.

Before even beginning with the initial steps of cake decorating, it is important to make all the necessary preliminary preparations first. Of course, what in the world is cake decorating without the cake itself? Although preparing and decorating properly requires the right cake, it is not an absolute requirement for the normal person to have culinary skills and techniques when it comes to baking pastries and cakes. For newbies in the business, just a quick stop at the nearest market and a hefty purchase of the family's favorite three-step cake batter mix would suffice in this case. This kind of baking commodity will assure everyone that the decorating process could begin in an instant . Usually, an instant baking mix requires ingredients like milk, water, eggs and oil, and the rest of the cake could be completed after following the instructions left by the manufacturer. If the baker has background experience in baking cakes and pastries, then he or she could start smoothly. Whatever the case, any person should make sure that the best and freshest ingredients are chosen for the task.

The first step in actually decorating the cake is selecting the perfect kind of icing. Icing, for starters, is that unusually white and light cream that is added on top of cakes to make it look appealing and flavorful. However, selecting the perfect kind of icing is not as easy as choosing the right brand of cake mix on a market isle. Quite the opposite, it involves having the correct kind of icing consistency as situations allow it. There are basically three kinds of cake icing: soft icing, medium icing, and stiff icing. Soft icing, obviously, is the thin kind, which is usually applied as the first layer of cream on the cake, and it also serves as the natural canvas for the next decorations. Medium cake icing, on the other hand, is used for adding details on that prepared canvas, such as scrolls, borders, initials, and corners. This kind of icing, unlike the soft icing, is sturdy enough to hold still. The last kind of cake icing is the stiff one, which is used on the more specific parts of the cake such as flowers on birthday cakes. Although edible, this type of icing is usually not eaten since it is used prominently for decorative purposes.

The last step in cake decorating is actually the most important: imagination. From here on, the baker is free to choose the decorating tools and designs as his or her imagination allows it.
