How to excel in cake icing

Cooking and baking can easily be called forms of art. Aesthetically pleasing, the food we ingest nurtures our positive thinking. As you already know, one of the most evident type of foods that is a form of art is the sponge cake, be it a a wedding cake, a birthday cake, a celebration or seasonal one.

The decoration is extremely important, it conveys a message, it tells the celebrated one that you really paid attention to the things that characterize him...especially if he’s a grown-up. You can choose a shoe or a car like birthday cake, a fortress or Thomas the Tank Engine.

No matter your choice, we share the same secret of cake icing practised to perfection. Without being true experts in cake icing, we couldn’t offer you so many reasons of joy.

Soft sugar paste icing or fondant icing is made from sugar and glucose; it is edible and as its name suggest, it is easy to work with.We use special tools that help us give the shape we want.
Depending on the decoration, we may have to hand roll the sugar paste, thing which implies a lot of patience and meticulousness.

We take great pride in our hard work, as we know the value of your happiness. Complexity is what defines our birthday cakes: on the one hand there is the sponge cake, soft, vanilla scented, fresh, made with butter and free range eggs. And then there is the sugarpaste icing and the decoration.

 Attention to detail is paramount. We have to know exactly how many edible Bumble Bees to place on the Beehive Cake and where to place them. We have to know that five more white edible flowers will create a delicate image.

We excel in cake icing because this is our way of wishing you “Happy Birthday!"
