| cake decorating practice sheets: Decorating With a Paper Cone Alain Buys, Jean-Luc Decluzeau, 1996-08-23 Prestige des Grands Chefs More than a century ago, the techniques of modern French pastry were developed. Since that time, the paper cone has been one of the basic tools of the «pätissier». It is the simplest of all tools — a triangle of parchment paper — Yet in the hands of a trained professional or amateur the paper cone becomes the pen of a writer and the brush of an artist. The stunning decorations that are applied with the paper cone are literally the «icing on the cake». More than a technical manual this comprehensive work details every style and technique for creating beautiful decorations with a paper cone from learning new designs to the application on culinary works of art. The information in this book will help the novice get started and inspire the professional to improve his or her technique and to express this art in new ways. The first section of this treatise on the paper cone includes the basic techniques for using this simple tool. By following the progression of the 120 practice sheets that make up the major portion of this book, you will obtain the skill to pipe a wide variety of decorations. These practice sheets also have been designed to be used apart from the book to trace the designs over and over. After you have mastered the designs on the practice sheets, the last chapter shows a wide range of finished works of pastry art as well as ways of using the paper cone to pipe designs for plate presentation and other applications. Food professionals and enthusiastic amateurs at all levels of proficiency will be guided to improve their results. For very little cost in equipment and materials, you’ll produce spectacular decorations. |

Then she shows how to double-load a varnish-dipped brush with two colours, then demonstrates a variety of brush strokes to create beautiful leaves and petals with a fresh, 3D appearance, which are used to paint sunflowers, roses, rosebuds, berries, stems, tendrils and bows. There are then fourteen stunning step-by-step projects including shaped cakes, tiered cakes, mini cakes and cupcakes, decorated with an amazing array of flowers and styles. Readers will have all the skills and techniques to produce any of these amazing creations, including Teardrop Cakes, a Pansy Cake, Autumn Rose Wedding Cake, Lace Fancies, Easter Lilies painted on chocolate, a Dragonfly Cake, Lavender Cupcakes, a cake covered in 3D decoupaged sugarcraft sheet butterflies and a Black and White Wedding Cake in a stunning, elegant style that would look great for a civil ceremony or wedding. |
