In the oven, decorations made from such dough will also increase slightly in size and you need to cover the top in time so that the decorations do not burn. After baking, wooden sticks must be removed from the cake.
To keep dough decorations out of the oven and keep their shape, you can make a simple dough with flour, water, and salt. The dough should be soft so that you can easily make flowers, leaves, birds from it. Flowers and leaves from such a dough do not lose their shape, but they are not as tasty as decorations from the main dough. Sugar is not added to such a dough so that the decorations do not burn.

There are several other options for decorating Easter cake.
Making your own powder
In addition to confectionery powder, which is made from hard glaze, multi-colored coconut flakes, colored sugar, semolina and even millet are used as powder on Easter cakes. You can buy powder not only before Easter, but also at any other time. It is stored for a long time, and in a dry, cool place, excess can remain until next year. Making your own powder is also easy. This will require food coloring and a base. At home, semolina is best, but, of course, sugar powder will be tastier.
Egg paint gives bright and saturated colors. It needs very little, so you can use the leftovers. But if vinegar was added to the paint, it is not suitable for making powder. Semolina or sugar is placed for a few seconds in cold paint and dried on paper. After drying, large lumps can be broken into which cereals and sugar soaked in paint stick together.
Usually, colored powder is mixed, or it is already sold in a mixed form. But coconut flakes, for example, are packaged in individual colors. You can decorate the Easter cake in an original way if you apply the powder in stripes or concentric circles. You can also cut out a stencil with XB letters and simple patterns and apply powder through the stencil, letters and patterns in one color, the background in another.
Traditionally, it is decorated with the letters "XB". This is an abbreviation for the Easter greeting "Christ is Risen!". Letters can be laid out with pieces of finely chopped fruit, raisins, dried apricots ... Candied fruits (usually flat and multi-colored) are also used for inscriptions. And the letters "XB" are molded from dough. And when the cake is ready, sprinkle it with powdered sugar, and highlight the letters with bright sprinkles (culinary beads, for example), chocolate.
Glaze. Decorating Easter cakes with icing is a very common way to give them a festive, beautiful look. The icing is prepared from egg white and sugar (or powdered sugar), which are thoroughly beaten until a thick foam.
Icing for Easter cake
Ingredients:
1-2 egg whites
0.5 cups of powdered sugar,
1 st. spoon lemon juice.
Cooking
Protein must be chilled. Beat it with a mixer. Start the process with the first speed, gradually increase it. You can understand that it is enough to beat by turning the bowl of protein upside down - the protein should not spill out. When the required consistency is reached, start gradually, by a teaspoon, to introduce powdered sugar sifted through a sieve. Finally, add lemon juice and beat for another 10 seconds. Apply the finished glaze to hot Easter cakes - then it will fit snugly and is unlikely to crumble. Another way to give additional “strength” to the glaze is to put the Easter cakes for a minute in the oven, heated to 100-120 ° C.
The icing is a beautiful decoration in itself. However, you can add (sprinkle) nuts, dried fruits, grated chocolate, multi-colored confectionery beads. Again, you can lay out the letters “XB” from fruits. And you can just write these letters with icing. Lots of options. Kulich is a festive treat, so get creative! Often, to give it an appetizing shine, the yolk is applied to the finished cake and sprinkled with powdered sugar or bright sprinkles. They mold a symbol of faith - a cross - from dough and highlight it with glaze. Can be used for decoration (already on top of the glaze), for example, waffle flowers, flowers from culinary mastic.
Sugar mastic for flowers and other decorations
Ingredients:
250 g powdered sugar,
2 tsp gelatin powder,
6 tsp water,
1 tsp glucose.
Cooking
Sift the powdered sugar. Pour it into a bowl. Take another bowl (small) and place the gelatin in it. Sprinkle it with water, let it swell for 2-3 minutes. Then put the bowl of gelatin on water bath and dissolve it by gently stirring. Immediately after the gelatin dissolves, pour in the glucose. The resulting liquid should be more or less transparent. Next, make a hole in the powdered sugar and pour the mixture of gelatin and glucose into it. Mix well, you can use a knife, chopping movements. Then place the mask in plastic bag and the package in an airtight container. Leave for 3-4 hours room temperature. After that, you can sculpt flowers and other decorations from mastic.
Here's how you can mold, for example, roses from mastic. To start using food colorings, tint the mastic in pink, green, scarlet, yellow and other colors. Leave some white mastic as well. Put the pieces of colored mastic in a plastic bag to keep it soft and pliable. Use it in small portions.
From a small piece of mass, mold a “carrot” and place it on a table or plank. After that, roll up balls of the same size from the tinted mass - future rose petals. Mash the first ball with a teaspoon on a table dusted with powdered sugar, then use your hands to shape it into a petal shape. Make the petals thinner on one edge, thicker on the opposite. Then slightly moisten the lower part of the petal with water and wrap it around the “carrot”, thus making the ovary of the flower. From the second ball, blind the next petal. Moisten the bottom again at the base of the petal and wind it onto the workpiece so that the middle of the second petal closes the “seam” of the first petal. Glue the third petal and bend it from the middle to the side. So make 5-6 petals.
Let the finished flowers dry for 5-6 hours. Petals should be made as thin as possible towards the edges and thicker at the base! If an excess mass of glaze has formed at the bottom of the flower, it can be cut off with scissors.
Then you need to prepare the leaves for the flowers. From 3-4 green balls (can be of different sizes) form "carrots". With two thumbs, press down on the middle of the "carrot" and give it the shape of a leaf. Then with a knife in the center of the sheet, and after obliquely, apply veins. The leaf can be given any shape and bent as you like. Dry. When flowers and leaves are ready, they are collected in a bouquet. Attach 2 to 3 leaves to one flower.
Easter cake should be served on a large plate, on which painted eggs can be laid out around the perimeter (we will talk about them later). But there is another option: with fruit. To do this, lay out kiwi with chamomile, and in the center place a mixture of nuts, prunes, fresh berries, sliced orange slices. On the resulting fruit base, place the Easter cake, decorated in the same style: fresh fruit over glaze.
Easter icing and decorative sprinkles
But they came up with modern way Easter cake decorations, although in fact easter icing- this is the same sugar, only in the form of powder, with the addition of citric acid and starch (for better beating and thickening). To the glaze in the form of a powder, you need to add egg white and beat with a mixer, beats quickly and freezes better than just whites with sugar.
We apply the glaze on the tops of the Easter cakes with a brush or a spoon and wait a couple of minutes. Because if you sprinkle with sprinkles right away, it will get wet and melt.
And after a few minutes, when the icing on the Easter cakes dries up, but does not harden - do not miss it, the topping will simply crumble with the frozen icing!) - decorate with multi-colored sugar sprinkles.
And there are so many types of sprinkles - both round, and long, and asterisks, and different colors! Entrust the work of sprinkling cakes with sprinkles to the children - they really like this business! True, part of the topping is eaten :)
But look how else you can elegantly paint Easter cakes with the help of plain glaze And natural dyes!
Candied fruits, sugar beads and sugar figurines
You can decorate Easter cakes not with sprinkles, but with multi-colored candied fruits. It looks very nice, but candied fruits are large and hard, so it is better not to give them to small children.
Also very original and beautiful look apiaries, decorated with sugar figurines from mastic - for example, with such cute chickens. But these figurines, to be honest, you can’t gnaw through ...
And sugar beads, shiny, gold and silver - although they are very beautiful, I do not advise you to take them for decoration! They are good only in appearance, but they taste very hard and absolutely unbreakable. And even dangerous for kids. So we'd better take...
Sugar pencils!
Brilliant invention!!! Well done to the confectioner who invented them! The process of decorating baking - Easter cakes, muffins, cookies - turns into creativity! You can draw whatever patterns you want, leaves, flowers, put specks - paint a little pasochka like a krashanka! The set includes three pencils of different colors - red, green and yellow. It is very exciting to paint Easter cakes with them for the whole family! Give the kids a Easter cake for decoration, and let them paint as they want!
Dough decoration
Two types of dough decorations
Decorations are laid out on top of the cake before baking or glued onto the already baked cake with the help of raw protein. You can prepare decorations from the same dough from which Easter cake is made, or from another, less amenable to deformation during baking. Braids are woven from dough, flowers are made, letters and crosses are laid out.
If the cake is baked together with decorations, to give a beautiful look, the top is smeared with a beaten egg or vegetable oil. But this is optional. Then, after baking, the top of the cake can be watered sugar syrup and even apply a fine powder on top of the syrup. Cover the gaps between decorations with glaze, glue nuts and candied fruits with protein.
For jewelry from sweet dough:
150 gr. flour,
30 gr. margarine,
1 st. l. sour cream
20 gr. Sahara,
1 egg.
Perhaps you are quite satisfied that the decorations will be crispy golden crust and the same color as the whole cake. Then decorations can be made from the same dough from which Easter cake is prepared. Well, if you still want them to contrast in color, take on board one more piece of decoration advice can be made from yeast, but not rich dough. Carefully, on the dough that has already risen, smeared with egg suspension, prepared decorations are laid out and the cake is sent for baking.
Of course, there is no comrade for the taste and color. I prefer to work with special dough, then the decorations are more airy and elegant. Finished decorations are placed on the hot surface of the baked cake. Since they are very thin compared to jewelry made of yeast dough, then the decor attached to the Easter cake is enough to be placed in a hot oven for several minutes to fix and create a light shade.
simple dough-Flour,salt and water, knead a stiff dough and make decorations.
mk roses
These are blanks for spikelets:
This is how they need to be cut with scissors:
On the rolled dough, cut out different flowers and leaves with notches:
For roses, you can use special recesses and collect them according to the type of mastic:
These are the blanks you can make while the cake is coming up: 
I greet you today and with pleasure I will continue to develop the Easter theme. Moreover, there are so many interesting topics in it. For this bright holiday, they begin to prepare in advance, they create,. And the day before the holiday, the baking of Easter cakes and the creation of Easter begins. And every housewife is in search of the very recipe that is tastier than the rest.
Of course delicious and fragrant pastries- this is already half the success, but for the holiday I also want to decorate it. And the puzzle begins - how, and with what to spread it and sprinkle it on top of the Easter cake. And everything is very simple, read below, I will talk about very affordable and beautiful options. We simply forget about some of them, although for festive decoration they fit very well.
Cream of whipped protein is one of the most traditional and widely used options for decorating the head of Easter cake. It is quite easy to make and experienced housewives already found the nuances, under which the cream will be perfect. You can use not only protein, but also others. But that's what they did when I was a kid. Mom whipped squirrels, decorated pastries, and gave the rest from the walls of the ladle to us. We licked these spoons to a shine!
But, not everyone gets this simple cream, so I will give the basic rules for whipping proteins.
- Clean and completely dry dishes.
- Eggs must be cold.
- If the cream is not immediately applied to the case immediately after cooking, it will settle.
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
It is very easy to prepare. Eggs are separated into whites and yolks.
Put the bowl in which you place the squirrels in the refrigerator for 20 minutes, it should be cold, only then start cooking.
Beat only the whites for 20 seconds, then add the powder by a teaspoon. Whip sugar mixture 2 minutes.
Then pour in 1 tsp. lemon juice and now beat the cream to good peaks. This will take another 6 to 11 minutes.
Before decorating, let the pastry cool, otherwise any cream, at least, at least, will begin to flow along the sides.
All the lush protein mass must be used, the next day it will no longer be so airy, because it will simply settle and dry out.
You can use absolutely any cream, for example, beautiful flowers are obtained from butter.
Such an Easter must be kept in the refrigerator, and the butter can be replaced with one, which also keeps its shape well, but not as fatty and high-calorie as oily.
Chocolate decor at home
Chocolate decoration is also always in use. It looks very nice in contrast with powdered sugar or white chocolate. You can also make chocolate letters or lines on white glossy icing!
Most often just take the tile milk chocolate, break it and melt it in a water bath. And then, when all the pieces are completely melted, the process of registration begins. You can just cover the top of the cake instead of icing, or you can think about the design.
For example, I really like the idea of dark sweet letters on white protein cream.
Or else I want to tell you delicious idea baskets using a stencil and chocolate mixture.
To do this, we prepare a stencil. To do this, you can use tracing paper or parchment paper. We measure our pasochka around the circumference and cut a strip of the same length, 4 centimeters wide.
And now the hardest part. Pour the chocolate into the bag, tie the edge well and cut off the cellophane tip at the corner. We begin to display chocolate tracks according to the template. This must be done quickly so that the mixture does not cool down.
To make the strip go well, you can first grease it a little with oil, and then apply chocolate.
Making icing for cake
The protein cream starts to crumble when you cut the piping. And a lot of this crumb is then thrown away. Today I want to give you a recipe for white icing, too, but without the use of eggs, and it does not crumble at all. The whole secret is the absence of protein and the addition of gelatin.
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 tsp gelatin
- 6 tbsp water
- Lemon juice
Gelatin pour 2 tbsp. water and leave to swell.
Then pour sugar into a container, pour it with 4 tablespoons of water. And you until the sugar dissolves.
Remove the hot mass from the fire.
Spread the swollen gelatin and mix.
Then beat with a mixer at maximum speed for 4-5 minutes, until the mass turns white.
Now squeeze a couple of drops of lemon juice into this mixture, you can replace it with an orange or grapefruit or dye.
Now beat for another thirty seconds and you're done.
It easily lays on the surface and is squeezed out of the confectionery syringe.
Also in this glaze, you can add any dyes.
This should be done at the stage of adding gelatin. Then the paint mixes well with the whole mass.
Ideas for designing goodies through a stencil
I started my journey in the design of baking with this method. Yes, and I still consider it the simplest and most beloved.
This decoration option consists in the fact that a stencil is laid out on the baking surface, on which a mass contrasting to the coating is laid out.
It turns out very beautifully when large lace is laid out on top of the chocolate and powdered sugar is sprinkled on top. You can do the opposite, and pour cocoa or colored sugar onto a white glossy surface.
I cut out my stencils with a clerical knife from paper and tea packs. But if you have big drawing, it is better to choose a landscape sheet. It is easier to apply it to an uneven, for example, rounded surface than a cardboard blank.
I also give a couple of templates that are suitable for the Bright holiday.
For example, such letters that are always used on this day.
The hare in the egg is a very symbolic picture. And for a wide Easter cake it will be very appropriate.
They do not contain many details and are easy to cut.
How to decorate Easter cake on top without protein?
Many people are afraid to use raw eggs into food. I recently also began to relate to this category of people, so let's figure out what other design might suit.
My dears, for those with a sweet tooth, condensed milk will be an excellent option. The usual Gostovskaya needs to be applied in a thin layer, and the boiled one can be thicker, it is not as liquid as the usual one. Or use icing sugar, which I wrote about above, or melted chocolate.
Okay, we have prepared the base, now we want to add bright colors! And we run to the store for dried fruits, candied fruits, nuts and MMDs.
Yes, my dear various bright glazed kernels, gummies and small cookies - that's all we need.
For those who appreciate naturalness and usefulness, it is better to take candied papaya, mango and pineapple.
They can put nuts or dried fruits, such as dates, figs or prunes with raisins.
But more often, dried fruits go into the dough itself than for external decoration.
Making decor with marshmallow mastic
Mastic produces magnificent flowers, figurines and patterns. But real mastic or marzipan at home is not so easy to make. I'll show you how you can make your own delicious dough for marshmallow decoration, in the store it is called marshmallow.
look detailed video, where a wonderful hostess shows and tells everything in a very accessible way.
I think that the very process of creating such a colorful decoration will inspire you very much!
See what decoration is made of mastic: flowers, ornaments. And I like the idea of cutting out one element.
It turns out very harmoniously and without unnecessary details.
Easy ideas with coconut flakes and candy sprinkles
In our childhood, my mother and grandmother used only purchased confectionery powder or colored sugar. Now, in addition to the fact that there is a sprinkle different forms, so it can still be selected by color. If you want, take multi-colored, but if you want in one tone.
Often it is simply sprinkled on top of pastries, trying to make it very even.
But we always drew with it the two main letters of the XV holiday, which mean "Christ is Risen."
Of course, you can’t write a full transcript on Easter cake, but you can definitely write an abbreviated one. Now if we have chocolate cake we make the letters with coconut flakes so that they are clearly visible.
How to decorate Easter cake with dough?
You can decorate with dough not only the top of the Easter cake, but also the sides. Especially if they are not very even.
For the top, you can make roses and leaves. For example, let's roll plain dough, maybe not yeast.
Cut out 5 circles out of it. We put them in one line so that the edge of the next one is on the previous one and we turn it into a roll.
We cut it in half and finish the decoration of flowers.
So that during baking the roses do not fly off, we will put them on toothpicks. And we will send the pastries to the oven until fully cooked.
But you can also make an unusual edging from Easter. For this, we also regular test roll out the layer, take a long lace, put it on the layer and start rolling the fabric with a rolling pin.
So she will transfer her pattern to the test.
Now we will remove the lace, and cut out the pattern along the edges.
Let's put our beautiful workpiece on a baking sheet and dry it a little in the oven, for five minutes at 180 degrees. This is necessary for the dough to begin to hold its shape.
Then we take it out of the oven and wrap the cake. We also hold the edges with toothpicks.
Now you need to bake this design for 20 minutes in the oven at 180 degrees.
Berry decoration with strawberries
And a very modern berry design. For example, use strawberries. Of course, we will not take out frozen foods, because they will melt, release a lot of liquid and juice and spoil it. appearance baking. So let's take fresh strawberries. Moreover, it is now sold at any time of the year in hypermarkets.
To add sweetness, the berry can be dipped in chocolate.
In combination with strawberries, cookies look very natural. Its bright color immediately inspires and reminds of summer and warmth.
