CAKE DECORATING HEAVEN

Techniques to hone your decorating skills no matter your level!

FESTIVE MRS. GONK

Whether you know them as gonks, gnomes or trolls, these Scandinavian folk people have become a firm favourite at Christmas time. We know them as toys, ornaments and also edible toppers but they also make the perfect cake centrepiece for a Christmas party.

MODEL VILLAGE

With time being short in the run up to Christmas, it can be difficult to bake off all the sections of numerous houses to host a decorating party, but there’s a lot of enjoyment in gathering around a table and creating tiny houses in a Christmas Village. So here’s an alternative: no gingerbread, no baking, no royal icing and no sweeties to decorate. Using pre-made RKT is a fast and easy way to create an alternative to a traditional gingerbread house.

MAKING MISTLETOE

Simple, effective and oh so stylish… a bunch of sugar crafted mistletoe will look striking on top of a minimalistic cake.

CHRISTMAS ROBIN AND HOLLY

The perfect finishing touch, add a festive feel to the top of a cupcake with a sugar branch, holly leaves and berries, plus a little robin.

HOW TO MAKE... MINI CHRISTMAS CAKES

These individual Christmas cakes make the perfect gift. They can be made months in advance so no need to worry when you realise you’ve forgotten someone on your list! So much of this project can be made using store-bought additions if you’re short on time, but feel free to have them be completely homemade for that personal touch.

GINGERBREAD DUO

A gingerbread man and decorated gingerbread house are wonderfully festive additions to a Christmas dinner table, but why not make them from sugar to sit atop a cake!
