Silicone border mat dots and lines

Silicone border mat dots and lines

The silicone border mat with a dots and lines design brings modern, graphic sugar tips to the cake. The clear pattern matches elegant, contemporary designs and the dots and lines are freely arranged. This allows several strips to be joined together seamlessly. If one strip does not extend around the entire cake, the pattern continues unobtrusively. Ready-made cake lace pastes and lace decorating pastes from our range are suitable for making these. These are optimized for this decorating technique and deliver consistently good results. The paste can be dyed with food colouring beforehand to match the colour of the border to the cake design. Apply a thin layer of paste to the mat using a metal horn or angled spatula. Smooth the surface and fill all gaps. Return any excess paste to the cup. Dry the filled mat in the oven at 80 to 100 °C for around 15 minutes. Check the firmness at the edge and extend by 3 to 5 minutes if necessary. The finished lace can be carefully removed and remains soft and flexible for a long time. It can be made a few days in advance and stored in an airtight container for up to two months. The mat is suitable for cakes of all sizes, cupcakes, biscuit decorations and applied decorations. Fondant and mirror glaze are particularly suitable as a base. The tip adheres very reliably to fondant, with a little food glue if necessary. On mirror glaze, it adheres directly to the shiny surface without additional glue. Chocolate is also suitable as a base.
