Cake Icing Ideas
We have a lot of cake icing ideas here!
Two excellent choices for your canvas are cake icing ideas and the rolled Marshmallow Fondant from "Cake Decorating Made Easy!" The fluffy, peaked frostings that most of us use on our first cakes before moving on to smooth icings are great for simple cake decorating ideas. You can make a nice dessert for your family with nothing more than a great cake recipe, a yummy, homemade frosting, and a sprinkling of shaved chocolate, grated coconut, finely chopped nuts, candied red hearts, gumdrops or colorful candied sprinkles.
However, with a smoothly iced cake, you have a blank canvas waiting to be transformed into a work of art with your cake decorating ideas!
Cookie Cutters for Cake Decorating
Here's how it works. Let's say you are making a congratulations cake or a baby shower "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" themed cake. Having iced stars on your cake would be perfect, yes?
However, no matter how steady your hand is, it's pretty difficult to draw stars with a decorating bag (some of us have a hard enough time on paper!). Stencils are one option, but if you don't want to mess around with stencils, try this cake decorating idea we found:
1. Use a cookie cutter to make a pattern on your cake that's easy to trace. (This could be one large pattern or several smaller ones forming a balanced design on your cake.)
2. Gently press the cookie cutter into cake icing ideas. Lift up, and there's your pattern waiting to be traced!
3. Then fit your icing bag with a small round tip (like you'd use for writing the message) and trace the outline of each of the stars.
4. Finally, leave as is, or try one of these decorating ideas:
a. Make the stars twinkle with some coloring dust.
b. Fill each star in with icing gel.
c. Create silver stars by filling them in with cake decorating silver beads.
d. Fit your icing bag with the star tip (because it's the best one for filling in pictures quickly) and color your stars.
The plastic cookie cutters that make the detailed impressions, such as the Christmas Santa, will give you even more of a pattern to play with. A visit to a craft store or baking supply store should yield a large array of cookie cutters from which to choose, including everything from cute baby animals to holiday themes such as Jack o' lanterns and Santa's.
