Transferring Patterns

Sometimes the cake you choose may include a pattern design which must be decorated on the cake. To do this, you need to transfer the pattern to your iced cake, so you can follow the lines as you decorate. This can be done easily by using Piping Gel.

Steps

step 1

Tape pattern to flat surface, such as a cake circle or the back of a cookie sheet or counter top. Place Parchment Paper over pattern.

step 2

Using Disposable Decorating Bag or parchment bag filled with Piping Gel and tip 1, trace over pattern.

step 3

Turn Parchment Paper over and position pattern on iced cake that has crusted. Using a Decorator Brush, gently trace over gel lines. When completed, lift paper. Pattern will be transferred to cake.
