The Frosting Trick To Transform Any Cake Into A Festive Pumpkin
You don't need to be a professional baker to produce beautiful baked goods at home. With the right icing tips, you can decorate cakes in the comfort of your own kitchen and bring a seasonal touch to dinner parties and weekend gatherings. A few upward strokes of orange icing can mimic the grooves of a pumpkin and offer the base for cute decor that is easy to create and even sweeter to serve.
Whether you use icing to draw small pumpkins along the side of a cake or choose to envelop a cake entirely with orange frosting, the ridges in an icing tip can help draw patterns that can be topped with cinnamon sticks and greenery to represent actual pumpkins. Add food coloring to a classic vanilla buttercream recipe and adjust the hue to build the shade of orange that is suitable for your designs before packing a piping bag with your chosen culinary medium. Icing in hand, you can get to work drawing pumpkins in sugary frosting.
The cutest creations for display
With orange-colored icing packed and ready to go, use a 1M stainless steel piping nozzle to place lines of frosting around the circumference of your cake. You can use different-sized nozzles to vary patterns and adjust streaks of icing to suit smaller and larger baking projects. Employ this pumpkin-decorating approach to embellish a homemade death by chocolate cakes or handheld vegan vanilla cupcakes. Decorate several cupcakes to form a delicious pumpkin patch or focus your attention on one larger cake to place in the center of your dining room table.

Utensils like a spatula or spoon can be smoothed across icing for less contrast between the lines of frosting, or you can accentuate the ridges in your designs by carving additional indentations in the icing with a toothpick or fork. Shove a cinnamon stick into the top of your cake and add a sprig of thyme to complete your pretty project. This is a design that can be presented with pride and is certainly worthy of updates to the 'Gram.
