How creative can you go? How imaginative is your soul? Just put that to a test this Easter with the ready-to-use icing tubes. Step out of the conventional Easter ideas. Of course you will keep an egg-hunt session and arrange for a family brunch. But in the late afternoon, before dressing up for a formal dinner party, go for a rejuvenating filler.
Do something completely crazy, creative and exhilarating. Keep a ‘Painting With Icing’ session.
If your house will be visited by a gang of toddlers this Easter, then they will simply shower upon you lots of kisses and love for this wonderful idea. And we do know that their parents, cousins, big brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts will not shy away at all.
Icings are irresistible to all who love cakes.
Since you are going to eat these works of art after selfies are taken and pics are uploaded on Instagram, you will need to arrange some plates and saucers as canvases for the masterpieces.
You will definitely not let them use your China. So buy lots of unbreakable melamine dishes.
For the paints, you need to shop a full range of icing tubes in all the colours available-- red, green, blue, pink, chocolate, yellow etc.
Buy in plenty since when the activity will start rolling, in no time you shall find that you have run out of tubes. Besides you cannot keep just one tube for a single colour and make the kids or the guests wait for their turns.
That will ruin the sport.
Make sure that the icings are made of completely natural ingredients. We are absolutely against the usage of artificial colours, flavours and hydrogenated fats and we can proudly say that not only the icing tubes or frosting, all of our cake decoration products are free of these harmful elements.
So shop, paint and make the most of Easter 2015.
Most of the glitter sugars available at the local cake decoration suppliers do not come in special flavours. Local stores generally keep regular cake glitters with no variations in taste. You probably have gone tired and seek of them.

Before you step out for shopping or shop online, please go by the checklist below--
- Do look for the products that are safe for health. By that we mean there should not be any kind of artificial colour or flavour.
- All the cake decorations and any other confectionery product that you buy should be free of hydrogenated fats since these are extremely harmful for health and can trigger cardio-vascular diseases, even cancer.
- Buy exactly the quantity you require. There are sellers who offer all sort of decorations in sachets, pots, tubs and cartons. Select the shop or the website where you can have that flexibility. There is no point in buying more than you need. Money is always hard-earned.
- Do buy ready-to-use icing tubes and frosting tubes since that will save a lot of time. Reputed suppliers always keep them in a range of colours and also in twin-colour options.
- Do not simply jump on every lucrative product that catches your attention. Make a plan first. Decide the menu, the recipe, the ingredients and the decorations. Then do the shopping.
- Make sure to include in your coterie at least one writing icing tube, one frosting, one pack of jelly beans, at least one kind of glitter sand, an assorted pack of sprinkle shapes and at least one kind of chocolate sprinkles if you have a strict budget issue.

Glitter sands are wonderful substances and this Easter you can use the cake glitters to paint the eggs. That will be a nice break from the usual egg decoration and will definitely earn you a lot or praises.
Imagine your Easter table set with a Jelly Bean Cake, a dark chocolate Holy Cross cake, a full colony of gum paste yellow chicks and a cute bunny pastry decorated with blue, pink, orange or yellow coated choco beans.
And right in the middle of these sumptuous delights, the guests will find a glittering offering-- a basket full of colourful eggs, shimmering and shining.
At Cake Decor, we are good in imagination and this makes us stand apart from a league of cake decoration suppliers. If you think that is a tall claim, please visit our website. We are sure that the range displayed will be enough to tell you that we have literally walked the talk.
But the story does not end here. So we keep on brainstorming and keep adding to the range. And the best part of all of our products is that those are absolutely free of any sort of artificial colour, flavour or hydrogenated fat.
Coming back to the edible glitter sands, we have a full range in offer, available in all colour options. Those are absolutely free-flowing and we can assure there will be no clumping.
These glitter sands are available in 0.5 mg. mini pots and also in large tubs. Apart from painting the eggs, you can use these sands to decorate other cakes too.
For example, you can add these sands on the bunny teeth and bunny ears to make the cutest thing look more funny or cover the Holy Cross cake with the silver glitter to give the Cross a metallic shine.
There are a lot more you can do. Just make sure you have all the ingredients ready with you.
Gold-- small, tiny chunks, uniformly cut-- piled on a plate or spread all over the creamy, luscious chocolate or vanilla icing on the cupcakes-- shining, sparkling and inviting-- and you know that all that glitters here is chocolate! Bling sprinkle decorations are just meant for making you more crazy about cakes.
These are designed to make you crave more for the most divine creations of the world-- chocolates, chocolates and chocolates. Sometimes we wonder what a wonderful substance it is and the idea of coating it with silver or gold paints (edible and 100% natural, it is simply sugar, not to worry) is all about making it more desirable.
It is camouflage and it is to heighten the thrills. Your favourite white chocolate chips or dark chocolate squares when are coated with edible gold or silver paint, becomes more irresistible. You cannot help but give in to the shimmers.
Do not mind if there is some ‘Portia’, standing nearby and trying to divert your attention. Do not at all listen to her. She may or may not be yours, but the bling sprinkles will all be.
Sprinkles add life to the cakes and why would you hang around only coloured decorations when you can have a platter-full of metals? Gold, silver, bronze are all there to be melted inside your mouth and make you feel the bliss.
Not only chocolates, there are gold and silver glimmer sugar, gold-silver glitter sand or gold/silver/bronze sugar crunches all set to make your weekend family dinner party or afternoon high-tea a completely bling affair.
Life will seem so perfect when after a day’s hard work, you will find yourself drowned in the couch with a bowl full of gold choco chunks and a double-shot espresso.
There is no such rule that you would have to put these sparkling choco sprinkles on the cakes only. Take a mouth-full, whenever you feel like, the way you want.
Close your eyes and imagine you are standing in front of a three tier vanilla cake sprinkled all over with chocolate toffees, duo chocolate curls, milk chocolate chips, chocolate coffee beans, crispy chocolate balls, chocolate splitters... Heavenly, isn’t it? Chocolate decorations are the most divine creations on earth.
Ask randomly any Psychologist, he would tell you that chocolates are instant mood boosters. May be this is the reason why all the Cake Decor employees seldom feel fatigue! The moment we feel we are running out of energy, the mesmerizing aroma of chocolate or vanilla or strawberry rejuvenates us and we get ready once again to delve into more chores.
We too are obsessed with chocolates and cake sprinkles like you do. Thanks to our job that we spend the major part of the day dealing with the piles of chocolate beans, shortcake balls, colourful mini chocolate beans, choco curls, choco chunks, choco spaghetti... endless. And then we have chocolate writing tubes in dark chocolate, white chocolate, caramel...
You can imagine the kind of self-control we have to practice on job!
It is really fun to sort the sachets, tubs or tubes and we love to imagine the glow in your face when you would pick these from a supermarket. We know that decorating a cake is never a mere kitchen job, it is a hobby, it is no less than an art form. And this is what has made us earn recognition at Cake International, NEC Birmingham. Our range of choco-writers was applauded by critics.
We know that artists hate limitations and this is why we always try to add more and more shapes, coatings, crunches to our range of cake sprinkles and chocolate decorations so that whenever you decorate your cake, you should never feel that something is missing!

Cut all the hassles of decorating a cake and buy ready-to-use icing tubes. Cake decoration is one of the most creative food activities that people enjoy doing for hours, only to find an excuse to remain engaged with the colours, creams, chocolates, gels etc. as long as possible.
When you are decorating a cake, your mind should be relaxed, focussed on the design and you should have all the ingredients perfectly ready right in front of you. If you are still dwelling with the traditional icing tubes, passed on to you from your mother or any other senior members of the family, it is time to switch to the ready-to-use icing tubes and enjoy the fun.
These filled-in tubes are sold in a range of colours and flavours. You can get writing tubes in different hues, designer tubes in a number of tube shapes, glitter gel tubes in blue, pink, purple and chocolate writing tubes in a variety of options like dark chocolate, milk chocolate or caramel etc. Decorating a cake is as easy as filling a painting sketch with colours.
The best part of these tubes is that you can involve the toddlers of the house in the decoration session. They are the true lovers of edible colourful sugars, chocolates and gels. Of course they will not wait until the design is done and gulp the icings more often. You may run out of tubes sometimes and there lies the real fun.
Instead of getting angry or scolding them, remain prepared beforehand. Buy as many tubes as possible. These are not expensive but never buy any kind of edible decoration that is not labeled as free of artificial colour, flavour or hydrogenated fats. You should never forget that if you want to keep your family away from health issues, you should always check whether these are made of 100% natural ingredients or not.
When you are buying cake sprinkles you should always look for cake decorations which are made of 100% natural ingredients. Any kind of artificial colour or flavour can cause serious health issues and since most of the time we see children grabbing the sprinkles, you need to be extra cautious while buying such decorations.
Cake sprinkles add life to the cakes and we all love sparkling glitter sands, sugar strands, pearls, toppers, sprinkle stars and sugar crunches in vibrant colours. No matter what your age is, these are simply irresistible. Leave out the children, even the most senior member of the family cannot resist the temptation of swiftly picking the stars or crunches in secret.
This is the reason you should triple check before picking a pack of sprinkles from the supermarket or adding to your cart. For the latter you need to be more careful and if the website does not claim to sell sprinkles without artificial colours or flavours, you should stay away from that seller.
Besides many sprinkle makers use ingredients that are not up to the mark in terms of food grade and very commonly they use harmful hydrogenated fats.
These are unnatural fats which are absolutely detrimental for health. Hydrogenation means forcibly adding hydrogen into polyunsaturated oil so that the oil can solidify at room temperatures. These solidified fats are used as cheaper substitutes of butter in various confectionery products and edible cake decorations.
Unlike the naturally hardened saturated fats these hydrogenated fats are difficult to metabolise. These are not excreted in the normal process and remain stuck in the blood circulations, causing cardiovascular diseases and sometimes cancer.
It is true that unless you are a medical professional or a nutritionist, you may not know all these and many sprinkle suppliers take advantage of this general lack of awareness.
Apparently there are 1001 ways to chase boredom away but if you are someone who never lets an occasion pass by without celebrating it with a rich cake, layered with thick creams and added with sparkling, colourful cake decorations, it is the cake that can save you from boredom.
Decorated cakes are simply intriguing and great mood-boosters, not only as eatables. The aesthetics of the decoration fills up our minds with a happy and positive feeling. How many times have you stopped by the windows of confectioners and served yourself with the eye-treats? The colours and glitters of decoration are capable of freshening up the souls almost instantly.
So, if you are feeling bored, simply start decorating a cake. If you do not feel like going through the pre-decoration phase, go out and buy the simplest of cakes available at your local shop. Buy a handful of icing tubes, gel concentrates, creams, sprinkles, glitters and then start playing with them. You are bound to lose the track of time within a few minutes. The activity will readily lift up your spirit and brighten your mood.
Let your imagination fly like a bird and keep painting the plateau of cream with the flowers, stars, glitter sand, sugar strands, choco-chips and whatever you like. These are all available in small sachet packets. You will not have to spend pounds to buy a range of them but these tiny elements can act as precious brushstrokes to an empty and dull mindscape.
Ask any psychologist and he will say that making yourself busy with a creative activity is one of the best ways to combat boredom and depression.
The more creative ideas mean the more effective results. And if you still feel sceptic, why don’t you give it a try, at least for once?
