With Father’s day approaching we have some great cake decorations ideal for creating a fantastic Father’s Day Celebration Cake or Cupcakes. We recently have added many new cake decorating products onto our new Online Cake Decorating Shop.
One of our new products that have arrived in our cake decorating supplies shop and is now available from our online store are the large and small Rolling Pin Guide Rings from PME. You simply fit the rings on to each end of your rolling pin. These rolling guides are quick and easy to use and ensure your rolled out sugarpaste is the correct even thickness.
Fathers Day Cupcakes
Ingredients
140g/5oz soft butter
280g/10oz icing sugar
1 tbsp milk
Few drops food colouring
Preparation method
Beat the butter in a large bowl. Add half of the icing sugar and beat until smooth.
Add the remaining icing sugar and one tablespoon of the milk and beat the mixture until creamy.
Stir in the food colouring.
Perfect piping
You will need a large star piping nozzle and a large piping bag.
Once you’ve made your buttercream fill the piping bag and twist the end to seal. Hold the bag above the centre of the cupcake and applying a steady pressure, pipe in a swirl.
Continue the swirl working outwards toward the edge of the cupcake.
When you’ve covered the entire cupcake, release the pressure and flick the nozzle away to break from the swirl. This should create a smooth finish.
