Baking: Start a long journey

The range of baking products available today by each mistress is great. This means that you can choose any of the variety of possible stuffs for your cake. But note that for its preparation you will need the following mandatory kitchen accessories:

  1. Measuring spoons and cups will help not be mistaken with the number of each ingredient in the dough.
  2. Sieve. Confectioners advise sinking all bulk ingredients, except sugar (flour, starch, cocoa, soda, etc.). This gives the test draw.
  3. The test knife is indispensable when making a puff or sand cake.

  4. Bakeware. Classic round, square, heart shaped and stars: There are never many of them. To create 3D cakes or preparation of the dessert of an unusual form, it is better to use silicone. Classic biscuits and cakes for which liquid dough is used, the easiest oven in detachable metal. And to create a multi-tiered cake, several identical forms of different sizes will be required (it is more profitable to purchase them).

  5. The measuring silicone napkin is useful for those who need to quickly roll out the cakes of the desired diameter. You can bake directly on it. The dough does not stick and will not harvest in the process.

  6. Shovels for cakes. With their help, you will be able to remove the root with a bench or separate it from parchment, not breaking.
  7. Cooling grille. To make the cakes not reset from one side and did not lose in taste, they must be cool on the lattice. This moment is especially important for the biscuit.

  8. The confectionery string will help to quickly cut the root for several identical layers of the necessary thickness. To do this, you can use the form for cutting biscuits.

  9. Grater for removing the zest and citrus press. In the preparation of some species of cortex use natural freshly squeezed juice and peel. It gives an amazing flavor and interesting taste accents by baking.

  10. Kitchen thermometer. It can be ordinary or contactless. Indispensable for some types of fillings.
  11. Perhaps some of the tools are already in your kitchen. The rest should be purchased.

    Collect the cake: how can you use?

    And here your cakes are ready, the layer cream waits for its turn in the refrigerator. We start assembling the cake. For this it is worth getting to:

    1. Silicone brushes. They are used for impregnation with cherry syrup. You can do it with a spoon, but in this case the impregnation will be inhomogeneous.

    2. Form for assembly (ring).

    3. Spatula. It is better to acquire a set. At this stage, a metal spreader will be needed corresponding to the diameter of your cortex. It is them that you will apply elastic cream. It would seem: can be an old good spoon. But only the presence of a spatula guarantees that the cream layer will be uniform, and after the assembly your dessert will not resemble the Pisa Tower.
    4. Creative stage: decorate and decorate

      Interesting to cook not just flooded with icing or cream cake, but more interesting, you will definitely come across the need to purchase special tools for decorating. You can avoid unnecessary acquisitions, if you choose the way of decoration in advance and come with a sketch. So you will understand which fixtures will be needed.

      A set of necessary inventory depending on what you will decorate the cake. So, to work with cream, be sure to:

  • Bugs for whipping. Ideally, there must be at least two of them: for eggs and milk (cream). Despite the fact that most of the processes are performed by a blender, experts recommend starting with manual beating. Then, as a result, the mass will be more lush and air.

  • Silicone blades and wooden spoons. Many creams with stirring with a metal spoon fall. In addition, professional devices are much more convenient.
  • Confectionery syringe or bags, nozzles for them. The latter is convenient to buy sets that differ depending on the purpose of use. You will definitely use curvature and floral. In the pictures below you can see the type of nozzle and the option of its use.

  • Confectionery nails. On them out of the bag or syringe decay flowers. Over the absence of an instrument, you can use a piece of sweet corn sticks, bowed to the toothpick. So it will be convenient, but the cream will leave much more.

  • Confectionery scissors. They are filled with nails and fasten on the cake.

  • Scallops and scrapers, with the help of which patterns are applied to the smooth surface of the cream.

  • Rotating stand for cake. Without it, you can do. But once having tried, you will understand how much it simplifies the process of aligning the cake.
  • Aerograph. This is an amazing device that allows you to apply a dye layer on any cream. It is the most convenient way to make a watercolor painting, amber, gilding or glare effect.

    Having skills of modeling and good imagination, you can try to create a masterpiece from mastic. This will help you:

    • Acrylic Rolls. They can be even or embossed. The latter creates a factory pattern on the surface of the mastic.

    • The ironing iron allows you to get rid of air bubbles that got under mastic, and make the coating perfectly smooth.
