My job as a pastry chef is often a challenge with my wedding cakes special requests. One of my work there, two-dimensional pictures of cakes that I bring guests must actually be implemented. They frequently make cakes look easier than they turn out to be. A situation comes to mind, the episode Blue Orchid Wedding Cake (also known as How can I use fondant on a wedding cake covered with delicate). Since this cake is made up of a house occupied levels below two-story round, the firstChallenge was a cake beautiful square. Hotel Excalibur Las Vegas

Although it seems easy, unless you have one, do not know how "fun" is! Classification and dress up a cake square is never ending. Just when you think you have the first right, focus your attention on another page and find more to do. Blue Orchid cake decorators in episode one of my staff, iced tea, and stacked the cake. My contribution was the final product, based on the work and arrangement ofFlowers.

At first glance, seem to make fondant ribbon easily. Fondant is the smooth and silky, you often see, especially on wedding cakes. Before it dries and hardens, it has the consistency of dry "pasta". For "surface" of a cake that is all that rolled out the fondant and then cut the strips lying on the cake. Sounds simple, right? Well, it's on paper but not in the real world! Based bands have a tendency to stretch out slightly different form, for example strip of fabric thatalways keeps its shape. Since the bottom layer of cake was a 12 "square, I had to install about 50 inches of tape-based (six inches to the side, plus some as a safety factor).

I started with a big "sausage", I make a simple flat-fan. Working in a professional kitchen, I have the advantage of using a rolling mill roll my songs flow in a uniform thickness. To paste rolled fondant, I thought the bottom with a slightSprinkle with sugar. Ho a "bag of sugar", which is simply a large piece of gauze layered, full of sugar, and tied to prevent the sugar from all over. This method allows just enough to sprinkle with icing sugar to prevent sticking, but not enough sugar to leave the dark spots. This was particularly important because I colored based work rather than basic white. I cut the fudge into 1 "strips orthe entire width of the ladder with a pizza cutter.
A bit of fast food: I found that this tool is a better job than a knife, because the flux does not move much when you cut and compress the material. Starts melting the skin dries out quickly when exposed to the shape of the sky, then I say to my staff, just cut the ribbon at a time and keep the rest covered with fondant. Since the piece was so long, I had to be careful not to stretch it. The best solution was to roll it. Unfortunatelyafter rolling, I found it easier to get help, he asked to put on the cake. After determining which side of the cake was the best and it would be before you start behind and led to investment funds, while my assistant run the group when he went before me.
An important tip: It is much easier to strip the cold, hard butter are considered the cream room temperature butter, cream softened. So, I work with directly from the cakeRefrigerator. The average level requires four equidistant thin strips, ½ "wide. The band along the upper and lower layers were simply put under because they were right in the middle two parts of the tape edge of the cake SA A little 'more complicated. Fortunately that the person he wanted, and then iced the cake exactly 3.5 "tall, making it easier to consistently rank in increments of ½ inch. With a ruler, I carefully marked the position of the two centralBands.
Another important tip: All seams tape should hold the line all the way to becoming a professional. It was completed after the intermediate level, I put the tape on the bottom of the elite and fondant work has been done! The last step is to add the flowers. The placement of the flowers was dictated by the photograph I was given. The florist with thin pieces of willow for accents, it is easy to fold. Towards rounded accents, I folded theInsured in the desired size and graze a small piece of floral wire, then put it in the image. But my job was not done ...
Although we placed the device on a cart and sent it to the reception room, although I have my staff to other tasks in the bakery, even though the areas have been cleaned up and clean tools, I expect. The phone rang. The manager said that the banquet customers like the cake! Finally, the work has been done and the cake is the result of Blue Orchidsuccessfully completed.
