Frosting Sheet: For Adding Beautiful Creative Designs on Cakes

Frosting sheets are also known as icing sheets; using them you can make vibrant designs on a cake. These are edible icing sheets that are very easy to use and can be proved very effective for  decorating a cake. These edible frosting sheets are printed and prepared using ingredients such as butter cream, ganache, royal icing and fondant. You can get the sheets in two types: first the pre-printed sheets and secondly, customised sheets on which you can get design of your choice or a picture.

For adding beautiful creative designs on cakes using icing sheets, you can follow the below mentioned steps:

• Step 1: Being your cake designing with a cake which has been iced using fondant.
• Step 2: For applying the beautiful frosting sheets on the cake, you need to have a small pair of sharp scissors. Now cut the design of your choice. Before you cut, just peel away the plastic sheet on the edible icing sheet; it will be make easier for you to cut out the design.

• Step 3: Instead of a scissor, you can also use a ruler to cut the sheet. Cut straight edges to give finesse to your design. 
• Step 4: The cakes are used iced with butter cream, it is a soft icing and acts like a glue. It makes it easier for you to paste the icing sheet on the cake. Otherwise you can use another edible adhesive like butter to apply the frosting sheet.
• Step 5: Put the sheet on the fondant, use your fingers to press it slightly so that it can be nicely pasted on the cake. But before you do the final pressing, must check that your design is accurately cut and in synchronisation. A poorly done design will make your cake look messy, not the perfect delicious one.
