Beautiful and delicious Christmas cakes and Christmas cookies are an inseparable part of any of this festive celebration. Christmas is a time to gather around the dessert table with your loved ones and enjoy sumptuous foods.
This festival is an opportunity to unleash your creativity and come up with innovative Christmas cake designs.
Icinginks brings 5 Christmas-themed cake and cookie design ideas to help you celebrate the moment and end the holiday on a sweet note.
1. Cream Cake with beautiful X-Mas Topper
Cream cakes are favorite of kids and adults. In cream usage, you have choices - buttercream, cream cheese frosting, meringue, fondant, or other cream variants for the grand party.
Use cream as filler or as topper, or both – depending on how much you love it. Use fondant to give beautiful shape to your Christmas cakes with an elegant star-and gift-studded X-mas tree on the top. And mark the boundary with ribbon-fashioned design cutting edible sheets.
You may add vertical columns along with the boundary of the cake. Place a curve rope connecting each of the columns on their top.
The color selection for the different elements of the cake is vital. In the design above, red and white colors complement each other nicely.
2. Christmas Cakes with Quick and Quirky Fondant Figures
Kids love cakes with fondant images or structures. Create a pliable soft dough using sugar, water, corn syrup, gelatin and/or glycerine.
Create sheets out of the dough to shape your fondant sculpture. Santa, superhero character, or whatever entices you – make anything.
Use edible markers for drawing minute designs like eyes, lips or dressing accessories. Add a complementary Merry Christmas message in a style of your choice.
3. Perfect Winter-Themed Cakes
Let the lovely weather finds an expression too. Create a winter-themed Christmas cakes to mark the climatic transition.
Nature has a range of flora and fauna that not just survive the bitterness of winter but also enjoy. Draw on inspiration from snow-laden red twig dogwood, paper birch, camellia, and other tree varieties, mountain, polar bear, penguin, and many more for your Christmas cookies and cake designs.
4. Coniferous Trees with Glistening Snow Christmas Cake
Coniferous trees covered with white snow are a sight to behold. Welcome winter by creating a Christmas cake design featuring this awe-inspiring natural image.
Create the cake dough and topper with your favorite ingredients and place those coniferous tree models on it. With festive season on, there shouldn’t be any difficulty in getting such decorative items.
Edible frosting sheets can help you add brownie points to your Christmas cake. Print it with beautiful images of sparkling stars and Santa. Write your message with an edible pen wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.
5. Geometry-Inspired Cute Christmas Cookies
Christmas is unique and so should be your Christmas cookies. If brown sugar, baking powder, and melted butter bring mouth-watering taste to the cookies, fondant or topper featuring artworks adds elegance to them, and grab the attention of guests at the very first look.
Customize the topper with chocolate transfer sheets printed with your favorite elliptical, circular, rectangular or other shapes. Add intricate designs using edible pen markers.
