When we decorate the cake at home, then, of course, we do not expect that it will look like the creation of a confectioner.
Nevertheless, I want to make the baking aesthetic andattractive appearance. Let's look at several options for simple and delicious decorations for homemade cakes. They will help you make your holiday brighter.
We decorate the cake at home using a flower paste of our own making
In the composition of this material, somewhat infrequentlymeet ingredients, which can only be bought in specialized shops for confectioners. But if you get them, you will not regret it. After all, working with this material is a pleasure. And when we decorate the cake at home, this is an important aspect. It will take one raw protein from the egg, two glasses of powdered sugar, a teaspoon of palm fat (it's also called confectionery). An important component is microcrystalline cellulose, which serves as a thickener for mastic.
It needs about three teaspoons. Whip the raw protein for ten seconds - this will require a mixer or blender with high speed. Set aside two tablespoons of powdered sugar. And the rest add in portions in protein foam and whisk each time. Now at an average speed. The mass should start to shine. Now it's the cellulose line. It should be poured in portions with a small intraval. And also stir well. After all the pulp powder is in the sugar mass, you need to stop and remove the mixer. Then rinse it off quickly. Otherwise, it can deteriorate. Place the paste on the remaining amount of powdered sugar. Grease your hands with fat, mix. The paste will become elastic. Now we put it in the refrigerator for 24 hours, before use, bring it to room temperature and decorate the cake at home. You can store this material in a cold place for up to six months.
How to decorate cake with protein cream?
This material holds the form very well. But in order to interleave the cakes, you need to make another cream, more tasty and moist. For this, you will need five proteins, 350 g of special jelly sugar and half a glass of water. And a pinch of salt. Sugar mix with water and cook the syrup, boiling over low heat for a quarter of an hour. Whisk the squirrels with salt. Carry out a test for a caramel ball and, if the syrup has already reached the desired condition, brew them proteins. Whisk continue until the cream cools. Before decorating a cake with a pastry syringe, you need to make sure that the cream, syringe, and cakes are well cooled. By the way, from similar ingredients you can cook aysing. For him, you need one protein, sifted sugar powder (250 or 300 g), as well as a few drops of lemon juice. In the whipped protein, add a tablespoon of powder, and then tamper with the rest of the amount. Add lemon juice and the desired coloring drop by drop. Stir. From aysing, you can make balls by applying strips to the prepared base. This is a very fragile material, and therefore you should be careful not to damage it.
