Basic Decorating Techniques
Brush Techniques |
|
- Make a flower pattern using a gum paste flower cutter, then outline one
area at a time with thin consistency buttercream icing.
- Before each outline can dry, immediately brush out lines of icing towards
center of pattern area using a dampened decorator brush. Work in short, quick
strokes.
- Clean brush in water after brushing each flower, to create distinct lines
of icing. Gentle brushstrokes of icing, piped directly on your cake, set a
soft, romantic tone for wedding and anniversary cakes. Be sure to brush the
design immediately after piping your outlines—the technique won't
work on dry icing.
