Simple Purple Cake Decoration

Simple Purple Cake Decoration

It was my wedding anniversary day when i prepared this cake. Roughly i had only 1 hour time to prepare, before starting  i was in a big dilemma should i start or not, because it was my special day and i allocated the time according to its preferences, i didn't wanted to waste more than  a hour on preparing cake,  for me celebration starts with cake cutting, i have to prepare i had no other options( to buy from outside ) because of time constraints, ok took a firm decision without taking any more time, okay i am preparing it.


It was 10am in the morning we were going out by 11.30 i need to finish by this time....i kept the oven to 350 degree preheat- it took 5 minutes, in mean wile i mixed all the ingredients for cake batter and kept in oven, it takes 28 minutes to bake. ok cake will be done any ways, i had many pre preparations to be done before starting decoration. Next i melted the white chocolate it took 45 seconds and mixed the color kept in freezer, all these things took 2 minutes. I had a icing cream left in fridge( which i prepared for snow man cake) took the same and mixed color and kept aside it also took 2 minutes....next was a challenging thing roses i mixed gum paste & color and started doing roses, each roses took 1 minutes, planned to do 10 roses, hoooo this is impossible and stopped to 2. Rest of the cake will look empty so did the simple chocolate buttons all these took 8 minutes. 15 minutes was gone, 12 minutes left for cake to come out of oven, i had no work to pre prepare, in that time i dressed my son......  28 minutes over cake came out well it was looking gorgeous, it was a big chocolate cake( i will post the recipe soon), to decorate this it takes more time, so i decided to cut the cake into small and i did it, again it was looking gorgeous, kept it in fridge for 10 minutes to cool,  thank god after 10 minutes it was cool i started icing it, it took 5 minutes, grated the chocolate took 1 minutes  and placed all the toppings on cake it took another 2 minutes and cake is ready.... and i took photos also so that it will be easy for me to explain the methods. Its very simple and takes less time.... I really thanked god that it was ready on time......

Step by Step Decoration guide :

You require 3 items, chocolate, gum paste, icing cream.  First melt the chocolate in microwave or double boil it and mix color & keep in freezer for 20 minutes. For this cake we need 2 color icing cream take 4 to 5 spoon of white icing and mix purple color,  mix the color to gum paste.              

I took a small ball of gum paste, pasted  on it and pressed to expand as shown in the above picture 

For flower design i took a stick and just pressed the edges gently as shown in picture....  

I took this picture holding in my hands just to show the sizes of both the toppings   ( it will help you to gauge the size ) Tap the icing cream on the cake( used the same technique used in Snow man cake    ) . Next grate the chocolate before placing all the toppings. last arrange the toppings according to your wish..

I couldn't take pictures of flower making sure i will show in detail in my future post ....(because my both the hands were mess)

Isn't it easy........

Acrylic Abstract painting

This is my first painting on a big canvas, i took 4 days to complete this art piece with tones of intervals, enjoyed each and every step wile painting this....   “The moon is a loyal companion. It never leaves. It’s always there, watching, steadfast, knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever just as we do. Every day it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full of light. The moon understands what it means to be human. Uncertain. Alone. Cratered by imperfections.” ― Tahereh Mafi , Shatter Me
