How to Make Handwriting with Icing
We’re going to be talking about cake decorating today. Our theme is, “How to do basic handwriting.” I’m going to tell you how.
Basically, you load your writing tip which is the one with the little open tip, very plain and you write in big letters. Try to write fat and not connected. When you write slanted in fancy handwriting, it’s harder to pick your letters off the cake if you make a mistake.
I’m just going to put my name here and if you notice, I’m writing in nice, big letters. The reason you want to write in nice big letters is because if you make a mistake, you can freeze the cake. Then take a toothpick and pull each one of those big pieces off the cake.
So let’s try that again, you use the big, big letters and I’m telling you this becomes invaluable when you make a mistake. A lot of times when you’re putting the cake together you misspell a name or put a wrong word and you need to take it off. So just remember that if that ever happens you can just take a small toothpick and go under those letters and pull them off once you put it in the refrigerator or freezer.
So that is basically how you write on a cake.

That was very helpful I made a beautiful cake and I’m only 10 years old.
@Annemarie I’m 11 and i make alot of cakes and cupcakes. I think there are alot of young people in our generation that know about baking and cake decorating and it is becoming more familiar in everyday life. I think its awesome that we, at such a young age, can make such awesome things

I’m almost 14 and have been cooking almost all my life. i started when i was about 4 or 5 and fell in love with it! I bake, and cook. I especially love to decorate cakes. I love to make big cakes. Im actually going to make a two tear cake for some close friends anniversary tomorrow. It is a carrot cake since that is there favorite. i bought the mix and frosting and got a recipe for decorating frosting so i can put designs on the cake. Hopefully it comes out right!
