Icing a Wedding Cake
Wedding cakes are one of the centerpieces of a wedding feast; it reflects the vibrant mood of the wedding as such much attention is given-duly by any bride or bride-to-be. In this video, the baker used a two-tier cake, half black and ivory. It started with filling the gaps underneath the cake’s base with rolled sausage-shape natural marzipan.
The gaps were expertly covered by marzipan using a smooth knife, applying pressure manually on the cake as the knife pushes on the gaps. A tasty jam was spread around the cake for easier sticking of the marzipan. A rolled out icing, dusted with confectioner sugar, was place on the cake, with the front over the top and kneaded around the cake’s border using a smoothing tool.
The top layer of the two-tier cake was placed on top of the base achieving height and emphasis on the design.. Any designs can be achieved as desired, a simple but effective design of black hearts on the cotton-iced base and white hearts sprinkled all over the upper black cake. It is very appealing to the eyes and mouth, a very inviting watch for each lovely bride to give it a try.
