Tips for your summer cake
- Apply the drip correctly: only pour drip onto a well-chilled cake, let it run down the edge first and then fill the top. Besides blue, it comes in pink, yellow and leaf green.
- Write and draw: with the chocolate-flavoured pens in green, pink, old rose, light blue and yellow, draw waves, leaves or names directly onto fondant or cookies.
- Use glitter wisely: sprinkle yellow, violet or fuchsia glitter sugar on the edge of the cake while the cream is still slightly sticky.
- Mind the heat: on hot days keep the cake chilled until shortly before serving and add the toppers last.
Combinations for cupcakes
For summer cupcakes, try the baby pink metallic cupcake cases with pink metallic and shiny blue crispy chocolate pearls, the pink and blue sugar pearl mix or metallic pink sugar pearls and light pink nonpareils. A swirl of buttercream, a few sprinkles and a small topper are all you need for a colourful summer buffet. Tint the buttercream in a pastel shade to match the case and add a butterfly on top for a coordinated look from case to tip – perfect for a garden birthday party, a barbecue or a summer wedding.
Frequently asked questions about summer cake decorations
When should I add sprinkles to the cake?
Ideally add sprinkles and sugar pearls just before serving. On moist cream the colours may otherwise bleed.
Does drip hold up in summer heat?
Drip sets when the cake is kept cool and softens again at high temperatures. So store the cake in the fridge and only take it out when it is time to cut it.
Can I combine different sprinkle mixes?
Yes, of course. Mix Ocean with Leinen Los for a maritime theme, for example, or Puste Blümchen with Vintage for a garden party – just make sure the colours go together.
