You really dont need a special occasion to decorate a cake, but some events that can be made unforgettable and extra special with a decorated treat are holidays, birthdays, graduations, religious occasions, showers, weddings, and other personal special events.

First, determine a theme for your cake. If the cake is for an adult, what are the likes, hobbies or interests of the birthday person? For example, if the person likes to fish, make a fishing theme cake. If the person likes to golf, make a golf theme cake. If they like to play the guitar, make a guitar cake.

Below are some ideas that will help you in picking the perfect baby shower cake. Keep I mind this is just a list of some of the most popular baby shower cake ideas. The possibilities are limitless and hopefully the list of ideas below will spark your imaginations and ideas and you will come up with your own creative ideas for making a unique baby shower cake.

The fluffy, peaked frostings that most of us use on our first cakes before moving on to smooth icings are great for simple cake decorating ideas. You can make a nice dessert for your family with nothing more than a great cake recipe, a yummy, homemade frosting, and a sprinkling of shaved chocolate, grated coconut, finely chopped nuts, candied red hearts, gumdrops or colorful candied sprinkles.

Your cakes can be iced with butter cream, royal fondant, or cooked icing and can be topped with features such as icing flowers, spun sugar, sprinkles or candy. You can create your cakes to look like a hot dog, drinks or even a pizza. If fact whatever your imagination can cook up. The perfect cake for you to demonstrate your artistic flair is firm, moist and not crumbly.

Other cake decorating tools that you should consider buying include non-stick parchment paper and baking strips. To give your cake that professional touch, you should also have a cake leveler to make sure that your cake is perfectly level before you add the decorations.

First, the royal icing had to be beaten to the correct consistency - not too stiff, or it would not spread easily, or too soft otherwise it would run down the sides of the cake. It had to be the consistency of beaten double cream - soft enough to give a smooth, even layer.

Thematic decoration of the cakes not only adds flavor to the occasion but also proves the importance of the occasion. Such as a cake meant for a wedding or an anniversary can be given a glossy or a snowy look by sprinkling fine sugar loosely over the top layer and its sides can be decked out with floral designs made of soft cream.

Cake decorating is fun, but is also a serious skill that, thankfully, anyone can learn. You can learn from videos, other members and get the support and ideas you need and want (not to mention ones you'd never come up with on your own) from one place and its popularity is growing by the day.
