Airbrush Techniques

Airbrush cakes are becoming very popular! Every time I turn it to the Food Network there is some pastry chef on there wielding an airbrush...my favorite is the Ace of Cakes (that Duff guy is hilarious!). What's amazing about these cakes is how absolutely gorgeous they turn out! A simple cake with white icing of fondant can turn into a rainbow of expertly applied gradients with a flick of an airbrush - or, a 3D cake can be made to look as real as real - or, a wedding cake can be decorated with hundreds of intricate flowers and vines... all with an airbrush... Painting cakes with an airbrush is really not that tough - mostly, you just need to know the tricks to making edible paint, the rest is just regular airbrush painting - except on a cake!

Brush Embroidery


Class Description Days Status Amount Payment Registration Form

Brush Embroidery

Hands On Class

1-4 pm

Brush embroidery is an Australian technique in which designs are piped on the cake and then smoothed with a damp paintbrush to give the semblance of embroidery. It is an ideal method for duplicating the lace of a bride's dress on a wedding cake and looks exquisite white on white. However, it shows up more effectively where there is a contrast between cake color and 'embroidery', e.g., white on a colored background. In this hands-on class, you will complete and take home plaques with your samples.
