No matter how beautiful the store cakes are, there is nothing tastier than homemade pastries, especially those that are prepared with love and decorated with healthy berries and fruits. It seems to many that decorating a homemade cake is a very difficult task, but this is not so. If there is a desire and minimal culinary skills, then you can cook not only a very tasty cake, but also incredibly beautiful.
There are many ways to decorate cakes with fruits, one of the simplest options is the original cutting of fruits with all kinds of figures and laying them out on the surface of the dessert with a certain pattern. Pieces of fruit can be arranged in any order, for example, just in a circle, in the form of a star, flower, butterfly, or even chaotically.
Cakes decorated with fruit jelly and fruits look quite interesting. So, if you decide to decorate the dessert with peaches, then buy peach jelly in the store, if with oranges, then orange jelly, and so on. Dissolve the product in water, using just a little less liquid than it says on the package. Cut the fruit into slices (if you are using fruit with a peel, then it must be cut off), put them in a container the diameter of which is equal to the diameter of the cake, then pour all the jelly and refrigerate. After the jelly has solidified, it must be removed from the bowl. To do this, you just need to lower the bottom of the container in boiling water for a couple of seconds, then turn the bowl over a flat plate. The jelly-like cakes are not only very beautiful, but incredibly delicious.
Another easy way to decorate a cake with fruit is to make roses from oranges or tangerines, which can ultimately give the dessert a chic look.
So, to make roses you need:
- one small orange;
- strong jelly (preferably orange);
- egg tray.
The orange must be rinsed thoroughly and cut into very, very thin slices. Dip each circle in pre-prepared jelly, roll it up and place in an egg compartment. It is worth remembering that each circle must be placed in one cell, trying to lay them so that you get a rose. The finished flower should be allowed to stand in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, after which you can decorate the cake with it. Thus, you can prepare any number of roses and decorate the dessert with them.
