I’m planning to make my first ever bakery dish for Christmas as a surprise to my family. Do you have decorations that might look funny, cute or maybe something other for a food decoration. I couldn’t find any good tiny anime figures, so my best bet are these cats.

    For cakes I like using leaves brushed with chocolate.

    Wash some green leaves (preferably something non toxic), dry, chill in fridge, brush with melted chocolate, chill again, peel the leaf from the chocolate.

        I have actually never broken one. Peel the leaf from the chocolate, not the other way round. The darker the chocolate the more brittle it will be I think. As long as the leaves aren’t huge I don’t think you will have a problem.

    I never knew giraffes were hiding spiral cakes in their neck.

    Marzipan and a bit of food dye will let you make all sorts of stuff. Forming marzipan is more or less like using Play-Do.
