Frosting

Frosting. Cooling to a crispy shell, this cooked icing spread all over a cake or layered up the middle adds a different texture to your cake. It's not any good for piping, but works best with a rustic swooshy knife action.


Royal Icing

Royal icing is the hard, white icing you'll see piped into beautiful curls and shells on a wedding cake. It can also be plastered onto a cake to provide a solid base. This does take more skill than using sugarpaste, but gives you a rock hard surface to work on. When set, hard royal icing allows you to make the most delicate decorations for your cakes.


Japanese Cheesecake

Japanese cheese cake is a beautiful cross between a baked cheesecake and a normal sponge. It's light, moist and simply delicious.


Pavlova

Pavlova - an Australian pudding named for a Russian. Best served freshly assembled or the meringue dissolves, a delicious pudding with fizzy wine on a summer day.
