Cake Decorating Tips & Techniques

Cake Decorating Tips and TechniquesToday we’re going to be talking about cake decorating. Our theme is going to be, “How to make roses.” Now we’re going to make the rose. I have a rose nail in my hand and I want you to watch as I turn that carefully when I make the rose. One of the thing you want to do when you make the rose in have a place to build up on your pattern so that the rose stands up.

You do that with a pumping action, going up and down. And what your going to try to do is make you rose a little bit higher that the other flowers that you have. In order to make the rose it’s real simple. You pump frosting onto your rose nail. And once you get the icing pumped, then you begin to make little petals by making a circular motion back and forth.

Watch what I do. You start with the wide tip facing down and push the icing over and come down. Go back, come over and come down, back over and come down and back over and come down. And there is your rose.

Now you need to take this rose off, so if you have a spatula, just slide it under the rose very carefully and put it on the little mound that you made for it. So let’s take a look and do one more.

Remember, we’re going to pump, get the icing built up and then we’re going to go back and forth. Start back, pull it over and go around. Your spinning the wheel as your turning the rose.
