Sugar decorations for the Yule log
Make our traditional Kirsch Yule log, with a step-by-step recipe on our blog (only in French and German). For the essential decoration, place some lovely little sugar mushrooms and a few holly leaves on top of your log: the range includes small sugar mushrooms, sweet mini mushrooms (20 g), large mushrooms (25 g) and the holly and berries sugar decoration. To wish your guests a Merry Christmas, add a festive design, for example from the "X-Mas Time" sugar decoration, and your Yule log is ready to serve. These sugar decorations provide the finishing touch that makes all the difference and look stunning on your festive table.
3D effect sugar decorations
Bring life and dimension to your Yule log with 3D effect sugar decorations. Santa with his sleigh, a snowman or a Christmas tree are just a few examples of decorations that add depth to your desserts. There are also 3D snowmen, 3D penguins (3 pieces), 3D St Nicholas hats and a reindeer head sold individually. These elements are not only decorative but also bring an authentic and original touch to your bakes. Your guests will be delighted to discover a unique log where every detail has been carefully thought out.
Ideas: designs for every style
- Gingerbread look: sugar gingerbread men (12 pieces) and gingerbread sugar decorations are perfect on spiced cakes and cupcakes with cinnamon cream.
- Santa party: Santa figures, St Nicholas hats and "Merry Christmas" decorations make children's eyes light up.
- Winter forest: the snowy forest sugar decoration, small edible green fir trees, small edible snowflakes and sugar snowflakes create a snowy landscape.
- Elegant in gold: the gold Christmas sugar decoration, marzipan gold stars and Christmas stars look refined on dark chocolate glaze.
- Marzipan: Christmas marzipan decorations and marzipan Christmas trees add flavour and colour.
Sugar decorations for cookies, cupcakes and gingerbread houses
It is not only the Yule log that benefits from sugar decorations. Top cupcakes with white buttercream with a St Nicholas hat or a reindeer, and gingerbread with a sugar gingerbread man. A gingerbread house becomes a winter landscape with small edible fir trees and snowflakes, while penguins and snowmen populate the garden. Even a simple chocolate cake turns into a festive dessert with a wreath of holly and berries. For the office Christmas buffet, mini cupcakes each topped with a small design from a set of 12 give every guest their own little figure.
Create your Yule log like a professional!
Professional pastry chefs often decorate their logs with chocolate end caps for a clean and elegant finish. At Cakelicious you will find everything you need to make your own end caps with moulds and transfer sheets. That way you can personalise the design of your log with our Christmas log decoration and achieve a result worthy of the best pastry chefs. Each end cap can also be complemented with other shapes and sugar decorations for even more detail and refinement.
How to apply sugar decorations
- Timing: add sugar decorations shortly before serving so they do not soften on moist creams.
- Fixing: a dab of buttercream, melted chocolate or royal icing holds the figures securely.
- Grouping: odd-numbered groups of three or five designs look more harmonious than even rows.
- Combining: use large 3D figures as eye-catchers and small snowflakes or fir trees to fill in.
Buying guide: what to look out for
Consider the size of the figures in relation to the dessert: sets of 12 smaller designs suit cupcakes and cookies, while 3D figures or the reindeer head make a statement on Yule logs and cakes. Sets such as the "Christmas sugar decoration set", the "Christmas sugar decoration mix" or "6 Christmas decorations" offer several designs in one pack and are ideal when you are decorating several desserts. Store sugar decorations dry and away from light so the colours stay bright.
Frequently asked questions about Christmas sugar decorations
Can I put the decorations on the cake in advance?
On fondant or chocolate, yes. On whipped cream or moist buttercream it is better to wait until just before serving so the figures do not soften.
Are the decorations edible?
Yes, sugar and marzipan decorations are edible. Place larger 3D figures on the dessert just before serving.
How many figures do I need for a Yule log?
For a standard log, three to five mushrooms, a few holly leaves and one or two larger figures are usually enough.
Are sugar decorations suitable for Christmas cookies?
Yes, small designs such as stars, snowflakes or hats stick to fresh icing and make cookies a real eye-catcher.
