Cake Decorating Supplies

Cake decorating is the art of dressing up of a cake for special occasions such as birthdays, weddings, national or religious holidays, or as a promotional good for a business. It is a form of sugar art that uses icing, frosting, fondant, and other edible decorative elements. Cake decorating can go beyond the simple art of dressing up a cake. There are cake decorators who have honed their skills in making amazing arts out of cake decorating: TV channels such as TLC, Food Network, and Discovery Family have showcased talented people who are cake artists. They give us a glimpse into how the cake may be molded during baking or sculpted after baking. It may take on simple or elaborate three-dimensional shapes as part of its decoration or as its entire decoration. Chocolate is commonly used to decorate a cake. It can be melted and mixed with cream to make a ganache or cocoa powder can be lightly dusted on top of a cake.
