3 Steps to Better Cake Decorating Supplies

Posted: Sep 25, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

If you want to get more out of your cake decorating business or you just want to be better prepared for the next time someone asks you to make a cake for their birthday, wedding or baby shower, then here is a step by step guide to understanding what you need and how to prepare using your cake decorating supplies.

1. Getting Ideas

First thing you want to do is get as many ideas as you can. The easily way to do this is to start collecting cake decorating books and magazines. When you visit your local Walmart, thrift store, book store, or maybe you visit Craigslist or eBay, look for cake decorating books. The more ideas you have handy, the better prepared you are when someone asks you to create a cake for them, or a new client comes in looking for a specialty cake.


2. Make Your List

Making a list is very important before you go shopping. First check to see what tools and supplies you are going to need for your cake, then make a list, and check your current stock to see what you will actually need to buy. Then make a list of ingredients you are going to need, I suggest over buying on the ingredients, it is always good to have extra ingredients to be prepared for mistakes.

3. Practice Makes Perfect

Any time you buy a new tool or need to learn a new decorating technique it is so important to practice using them or practice the new technique. You need to make sure you are really proficient with any new tools you just added to your tool belt. If it's a new icing or decorating technique then it is vital to practice, practice, practice. Icing techniques take a lot of time to learn and get them just right, so make sure you have it down, before cake making day.

    Delicious espresso chocolate brownie paired with espresso chocolate pudding. A miracle happens when you bake this. All the liquid sinks to the bottom and forms a creamy pudding. The batter rises to the top and forms a cake like brownie. Yum!

    I've always enjoyed eating pudding and I thought of making one myself (for the very first time). But I wanted to make a no bake pudding. So I decided on making a frozen one and I tried it out and it came out so good! I can feel the taste right now as I'm writing this blog!! So sharing with all of you, the recipe to a "Coconut Pudding". It'll just take an hour.
