		<description><![CDATA[The vibrant designs on this cake were created using edible icing sheets, a very effective and easy decorative technique. Edible Icing Sheets are printed designs that can be applied to cakes, cookies, cupcakes and other desserts. The sheets are an actual layer of icing that bonds with buttercream, ganache, royal icing and fondant. You can purchase the sheets pre-printed or customised with your own design or photo. Here is what I used: Edible icing sheets (I provided the printer with the designs) Gum paste glue (made with gum paste and a little boiling water) Small paintbrush Small sharp scissors Paper punches Paper Guillotine or exacto knife and ruler A cake iced with fondant A gum paste tea cup and saucer Other gum paste decorations to finish Where I purchased the icing sheets: Since I live in Singapore, I had my designs printed by CuppyCakes. If you&#8217;re in the U.S., Ticings is a great store selling beautiful pre-printed designs. They also offer a custom service. Creating the designs I searched Etsy for &#8216;Floral&#8217; and &#8216;Chevron Digital Paper&#8217; and came across a shop called Digital Potpourri selling exactly what I had in mind. Once I received the designs via email, I then laid them out (repeated the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is my favourite cupcake recipe. Amazingly moist, with beautiful tropical flavours from the pineapple, banana and coconut. The passionfruit in the icing gives it some tartness which cuts the richness of the cream cheese. Every time I make it, I am asked for the recipe so I thought I would share it here. Enjoy! Please note, I have included the recipe here with and without photos for printing. Makes 12 cupcakes or a 10&#8243; round cake 2 cups plain flour 1 1/2 cups sugar 2 teaspoons bicarbomate of soda 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil 1/2 cup apple sauce 3 eggs, lightly beaten 2 teaspoons vanilla essence 2 mashed bananas (medium size) 1 grated carrot 1 cup desiccated coconut or sweetened shredded coconut 3/4 cup canned pineapple chunks or rings drained, cut into small pieces Cream cheese icing 250 g cream cheese room temp 100 g butter room temp 120g icing sugar sifted Juice of 2 passionfruit Shredded fresh coconut topping. If unavailable, use dessicated coconut or sweetened shredded coconut. Directions: Preheat oven to 180 degrees celcius. Sift flour into a large bowl with sugar, bicarb soda and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, mix oil, apple sauce, eggs, mashed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m going to show you how to dress up your cupcakes this Easter with these darling toppers. The kids (and adults) will love them! You can make them well in advance since they will keep for weeks/months. Store them in a breathable box or container away from humidity and pests &#8211; a ordinary cake box is usually sufficient. This is what I used: Rolled fondant in various colours for the eggs Rolled fondant in yellow for chick White fondant for egg Brown fondant for nests Orange/red fondant for beak (gum paste may be used instead of fondant) Extruder with the disc insert as pictured below Rolling pin Circle cutter or any shape Knife or scissors to cut fondant from extruder Flower form cups, enough for the amount of toppers you are making (or rotate once the nests are dried) Small paint brushes Edible ink pen (optional) to decorate eggs Luster dust (optional) to decorate eggs Gum paste glue, made with gum paste and boiling water (optional as you can just use plain water, but glue is stronger) Tylose powder &#8211; add a little to the fondant to help it dry harder. Not much is needed, for example a handful of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi all! For my first tutorial on CakeJournal I thought it would be useful to show you how to make a face mold from a doll. Of course, you can buy molds but some are quite expensive. Instead, you can easily make a mold with just gum paste, tylose powder, shortening and a doll head. Here&#8217;s what I used: For the mold&#8230; Gum paste Tylose powder Shortening Doll &#8211; needs to be quite a firm one For the finished and decorated fondant head&#8230; Fondant in skin tone for head Fondant in white for the eyes Fondant in blue for the eyes Tylose powder Rolling pin Circle cutter Gum paste tools Small paint brush Edible ink pen Pink petal dust Red or pink food colouring Half teaspoon of pure alcohol (such as vodka or gin) or lemon extract Making the mold, Step 1. Knead a small handful of gum paste to soften it. Add approximately 2 teaspoons of tylose powder and knead well into the gum paste. The powder makes the gum paste extra hard once dried. Making the mold, Step 2. Shape it into a ball. Make sure one side of your gum paste, where you will place the doll face, is crease free. &#160; [...]]]></description>
