How to: marble icing, ice a cake drum and add ribbon & a bow



These are skills that will transform your cake from nice to 'wow'. I always say it is the attention to detail which elevates your cakes and this video will give you the knowledge to do just that. Marbled icing is very on trend and the technique is the same whether icing a board or a cake, whether creating a sea scene with blues or a wedding cake with pastel shades.
Annabelle will demonstrate
- how to marble icing
- how to roll icing evenly
- how to ice a cake drum board
- how to finish the board with a ribbon
- how to make a bow
- how to secure the bow to the board
This is a shorter video (just under 30 minutes) but you will be amazed at how much invaluable information you will learn and the difference it will make to your cake projects.
When you buy your demonstration, you will be sent the link to Annabelle’s recording along with a list and picture of equipment used. You can then download the recording and save it to watch and re-watch as many times as you like.
Each technique is fully explained and broken down into simple steps.
This 30-minute video is packed full of useful tips on making and using marble icing. As always, Annabelle’s presentation is engaging and easy to follow, as she clearly explains what she is doing, and why. I’m delighted with my first attempt at marble icing and am going to use the board for a pale green birthday cake later this week and think that a yellow board might work well for Easter cupcakes for the grandchildren. Thank you, Annabelle, for yet another fun and informative video.
