and decorate it, too! They say we eat with our eyes first, and what could be more enticing than a beautifully decorated cake?
Before you start baking, there are some basic tools you’ll need to ensure a flawless finish:
• Revolving Cake Turntable to help keep your creation steady for icing, piping, smoothing, or creating more detailed designs
• Serrated Cake or Bread Knife for leveling and cutting layers
• Offset Spatula for applying frosting evenly
• Pastry Bag and Tips for decorating
• Cake Smoother for smoothing frosting and making decorative designs and patterns
• And of course, your trusty Thermomix®, for expertly blending frosting and creams and whipping fluffy cake batter
Before you tackle decorating the cake, it’s important to have a good foundation, so follow these important tips for ensuring the most delicious base to unleash your creativity.
• Read the whole recipe before you begin.
• Prepare everything that you'll need in advance. Gather and organize all your ingredients and tools together first. Work efficiently and try not to interrupt the process.
• Bring all your cold ingredients to room temperature (butter and eggs). This is a crucial step so your batter doesn’t break.
The most important thing is to have fun. Don’t be afraid to experiment with unique designs, cutouts and topping combinations. Adding your own personal touches to your cake makes it special and Thermomix® makes it easy.
