girls, and who uses silicone stamps? share your experience
Quote: Elya_lug

Natkamor, I only made prints on mastic, and then outlined it with a brush, or left just squeezed patterns. And on icing, I can't imagine how to do it. Theoretically: a stamp print on the dried layer, but you need to pick up the paint. My gel paint rolls off the stamp or fills in the wrong lines, it turns out blurry.

These are dry icing stamps. I use ink stamp pads.

I have new gingerbread cookies, I was at the exhibition for the City Day, thematic, they have a coat of arms and monuments and sculptures standing in the city, I planned a few more, but did not have time. Well, children's for the mass. We parted successfully, only 2 flowers returned home. If I had done more "I Love Lugansk", they would have taken it too.
The photos are not very good, the colors are distorted, I took a photo on the phone at night under the lamp

Quote: Mona1

Elya, interesting gingerbreads, and Luhansk ones, and from the children I liked them from fairy tales - a straw goby and a pike. And then right now, some of the fabulous freaks are bigger, like SpongeBob or Minions, and children forget psychically normal fairy tales. Sonny - my mother's assistant, handsome!
And on the first gingerbread Luhansk, is there an imprint with such a coat of arms of the city? And yet - on a small heart is written I and some kind of picture, you can't see what is there.
Mona1, Tanya, a straw goby and a pike - sculptural compositions, stand near the ped university, children love to climb on them and take pictures, there is still a bear and Masha, three pigs and a bee.
But there are so many details that I did not dare to undertake due to lack of time.
The coat of arms of Luhansk was made by icing herself, then painted with gold kandurin.
The pictures on the heart are the coat of arms in color, but schematic because of the size, the hearts on the three gingerbread are mastic. The son also helped to sell, told that they were edible and encouraged to buy

Every third person also asks me: "What, you can eat this?"

Elya_lug, Elichka, how much work and beauty!
Sonny, smart and great! Not every child of his age can so actively help in mother's affairs!
Tanya, we are just about to explain, I also put a piece of paper with the date of manufacture in each bag.
Lera, thanks, I strive for more! My son had a holiday, and ran around the exhibition, and cotton candy and ponies on the playground.

Dear girls, I haven't been here for a long time - all have no time. There is not even time to scroll through the topic. So I just shamelessly brag and disappear again. The child has moved to another garden, and it is not yet known whether they will have an Autumn Festival, but I decided to prepare in advance, (because time is running out) and bake autumn leaves. There are 45 children in the group on the list, so cutting according to a pattern is like death, especially maple. I had to make clearings. And she attracted her husband, and she herself was poking around in fits and starts for several days. In short, this is what happened.

It turned out even better than expected. The husband and friend were convinced that the small teeth would blur and be indistinct, so there was no need to show off much. But the teeth were good. Quietly proud. Now I think, is it worth pouring and painting them with icing? In the photo they are darker than in reality (it is cloudy here and even electric light does not help.) I just varnished them and that's it.Maple leaf size 11x11cm, linden 11x9, oak 11x7. Dough according to my recipe.
Quote: Elya_lug

elena88, felling is very cool - gingerbread lovely sight! Do not fill, but draw the veins and the center line. You could cover it with varnish. I smeared the leaves with green and orange at the same time and dried them. I liked these leaves more than completely filled

The girls are gone. Lena's leaves are so neat, and Elya will soon sign up for the Stakhanovites. And after September 1, I hardly do anything. From the interesting they asked to make a basket of pies. For the first time I used painting on it (slightly, shaded the pies) and a passport. The basket is 14 cm in diameter, the passport is about 12x14 cm. To be honest, I am not very happy with the passport: the color is not burgundy, but red. The eagle is yellow. True, in the evening I will try to gild with kandurin. The Russian Federation did not fit. In short, some kind of hybrid of a Soviet passport with a Russian

harmful78, Lisa, thank you, I'm trying. Your pies are cool, like from a children's book. I like the passport. I gilded my coat of arms with thick diluted kandurin, but the icing itself was light brown. On yellow, unnatural gold comes out bright and yellow, and on brown - the correct color, I learned from mastic.

Hello craftswomen!
Stumbled upon this site and absolutely love your creations! Amazing beauty!
The gingerbread theme "got sick" quite recently. The fact is that with baking I'm bad, from the word Absolutely Capable of ruining even a charlotte, but with gingerbread, I seriously hooked. I really want to learn how to create such beauty. Admit to your company?
The first gingerbread test was on my daughter's DR.

It took one big gingerbread (added to the order) Today baked, everything is super! Nothing crumbled or cracked.

Why icing could turn yellow on a carrot
Hello all gingerbread makers. I'm new to you, I really like painted gingerbread. I am on the internet and looking for information on painting techniques and everything related to gingerbread. So I stumbled upon your site, the last few days I am your regular visitor.From theory I have already moved on to practice and make the first gingerbread, I have already done it five times. And the last time I encountered a problem that upset me a lot: I made gingerbread cookies and painted them with ichycing on fresh squirrel, it turned out so beautiful, well, at least it seems to me, but the next day, my icing turned yellow in many places. gingerbread cookies look terrible, you might think that they are old or spoiled, and I cooked them for a gift. Can any of you know what the problem might be? I would be very glad if you can tell me what my mistake is. Thank you in advance. We decorate gingerbread cookies, cookies
Quote: ledi

IraDid you accidentally add vanillin to icing?
No, I didn't. I add lemon juice to icing, maybe it's because of him, but I have added lim before. juice and it was not. Then I added saffron to the dough, but this is not the first time I add it either.
Quote: Vei

It's hard for me to guess in absentia, but still saffron could stain icing.
and now I have a madhouse at home - the child is endlessly and constantly in the ear, something is very loud and constantly buzzing, the brain does not understand, it is not able to suggest anything efficient (((
Quote: elena88

Irina Fina, this is saffron most likely. Another such effect is provided by citrus zest. I didn't have it myself, because I didn't use either saffron or zest for painting, but I read it somewhere and remembered it automatically. And the gingerbread cookies turned out to be neat, cute.
Thank you all for responding, next time I will not put either saffron or zest in the dough, I hope that the icing will remain snow-white! I am very glad that there is someone to consult with
Quote: Vei

and try not to draw icing on a gingerbread with your white icing, but on a file or any plastic board, see how icing will behave after drying on a neutral surface. If it remains white, then the problem is not in it, but in the coating, that is, in the gingerbread. And if it appears on the file with such spots, then we will further understand.
And the gingerbread cookies are still very beautiful and neat, and most importantly - the hand is so confident, as if you have been doing this for a long time. Maybe these gingerbread cookies in those places where they turned yellow, tint slightly cocoa from the edge to the center? an aging effect that will mask the yellowness?
Thank you very much for the advice with both the file and the cocoa, I will definitely try both. But now I have another question: tint cocoa with dry powder with a brush, or do I need to dilute it with something?
It's nice that I liked my gingerbread cookies, I try, I got sick with them, I really like to paint them, and then I'm sorry to eat
Quote: ledi

I have never had such a zest. I keep putting it on. It turns yellow if liquid almost transparent icing is applied to gingerbreads covered with yolk, or when embroidery is done with a brush, well, in general, when water is present. But it is painted from the yolk 100%
Vera, hello. I don’t cover the gingerbread with yolk, but my icing was really thin. But I understood that if there is no yolk on the gingerbread, then the icing should not turn yellow, even if it is liquid. Got it right?
Quote: ledi

Yes!
Quote: sugar

Irina Fina, Ira, your openwork hearts turned out great! The gingerbread cookies are neat, the painting is even, I can't even believe that these are your first works. Only the girls are right, the icing is a little thin. I suspect that the yellowness appeared precisely for this reason, in my opinion, the icing stratified.

Quote: harmful78

Mona1, Tanya, and I really liked the gingerbread. Such a straight school. Minimum effort and quite interesting.
Liza, I like that people will be able to choose the raspberry option - with dye or with printed letters - for sure for kids, then you can just take brown, pure gingerbread. I have a granddaughter, two years later, and she already knows the letter A and the letter O. But I wouldn't give her a raspberry gingerbread, it's too early for that. By the way, when I point to A on the cubes or in the book, she says: A. When the letter O, she says: Pitsenka O.)))

Mona1, Tanyusha, the alphabet is very cool, just what you need for kids! Delicious, fragrant educational material, I think any kid will surely remember the letter or syllable that turned out to be so delicious

Quote: Vei

Lera, the minions are gorgeous! I already wrote to you the child's impressions of your minions!)))
Do you prepare your eyes in advance, and then plant them on a wet fill or already on a dry one?
Yes, Lizonka, first I cast my eyes on the file, and then I put them on the wet fill.
Quote: Mona1

Ler, well, I'm shocked, of course, from the minions, from their number, and in general, in shock. And you can drop a few words about your eyes. For me, they don't even look like that round, not that they are multicolored, you have 4 colors in a row in them. The first white is that you drew a stroke on the file and filled it with icing, or is it just a big blob of icing that blurred and froze like a round. And then brown immediately dripped onto the uncured white and immediately black on top, and immediately a small speck of white? In general, like sho here - round pieces. And it's so difficult.
Quote: ledi

Yauzha fainted on her classmates. Now here! And it turns out that they are not small !!! : girl-swoon: Lera, have you ever slept at least once in a week? Well this is what work !!!!!!!! Although I don't like these cartoons (I just don't know them), they turned out cool!

Sahara, admire you!
Quote: Elya_lug

Lera! Lost, so many of these freaks. Unreal cool
My girls, thank you very much! I am very, very pleased!
If not quality, then at least quantity will win your hearts
Mona1, Tanyusha, at first she circled in gray, dried out a little (in principle, on one sheet of A4 format, the husband printed 36 pairs of eyes, so while he was circling the last, the first ones were already a little dry), immediately filled with white, immediately dripped a little brown, and then black, and I already made white highlights when all the eyes were cast on the file.
I, too, not all circles are perfect, but the picture turned out to be more or less tolerable, although it is more difficult and longer than to circle and fill the figure itself. It was relatively easy to work, because I mainly worked with one color, only it was rippling in my eyes)))
But I adore these minions, like the cartoon "Despicable Me" itself, it is very kind, instructive and the minions are very touching and funny, I even shed a tear at the end of the cartoon ...In general, there are many good modern cartoons that touch the soul, and my baby does not speak and does not understand speeches, watches them with pleasure, our favorite cartoons: "Rio", "Brave at Heart", "Cars", "Toy Story", especially the last 3 part I cried like a little child

I have a 14 cm wedding heart. I try to learn how to make all the roses, the size of the gingerbread is 14 cm. The first time I made a box, while it’s free, the more clumsy it turned out, I was in a hurry. For some reason, the cardboard was unbent inside, glued with double-sided tape. It was probably necessary to sculpt it along the very edge. I decided that it would look better in the box. In the winter, my husband did it, but I had toWe decorate gingerbread cookies, cookiesWe decorate gingerbread cookies, cookies

Vera, wonderful heart, I like roses. I haven't made roses yet. Did you make them separately, and then put the finished ones on icing? And the leaves, probably, then attached to the gingerbread?
And on the inscription - wrote with a brush? And also rings - did you make them on the file, then paint them, and then on the gingerbread, or did you draw them over the gingerbread and then paint?
Thank you! roses separately, leaves later, as you write. Rings immediately on the gingerbread, and then covered with paint

Quote: Elya_lug

ledi, Vera, beautiful heart, neat, I also like roses.
Quote: harmful78

ledi, Vera, very beautiful and very gentle heart! It is the wedding. But I don't really like the packaging Against the background of a white box, beauty is lost. A bag with a tie knocks down all the solemnity and the gingerbread itself becomes somehow easier. It seems to me that we still need a cover with a transparent window. Or there is another option - I once did this when people did not want to take the box. I cut a heart out of cardboard, put several paper lace napkins on it, so that there were openwork edges around the perimeter of the heart and put a gingerbread on top. It turned out as if the gingerbread is in itself and along the edge of the openwork. I put everything in a bag, but did not tie the bag, but tucked the edge and sealed it on the back with double-sided tape. Once again for the speech. And about the box, in principle: I do everything - some postcards, folders, everything is glue for a moment gel. And it doesn't matter what it is made of paper or cardboard. Only tapes are glued to the adhesive tape, and then: if a bow from a satin ribbon is glued to the adhesive tape, it will surely fall off. Verified So everything is glued, even paper flowers

Tanya, THANKS !!!!
There were 30 ballerinas. I drew directly on the gingerbread, without a stencil, first drawing an outline.
But for my coach I made gingerbread with a casting on the file, I didn't like it, everything was fragile, while I transferred it, I broke it in three places.

Olga_Z, Olya, very neat! Well done! And how did you do the inscriptions on the logos? Is it a brush or some kind of stamps? And I also really liked the multicolored dots around the perimeter. Such flat, side by side without gaps, like beads.
Mona1, Tanya, first redrawn the logos from the tablet, adjusting it to the desired size. Those that are thicker, I cut out the inside with a clerical knife. Thin did not cut through. Then she put this stencil on the filled gingerbread and outlined it with a felt-tip pen, and outlined thin inscriptions along the height of the letters with a needle. Then she wrote along the contours or outlined points. By points, of course, it is more difficult.
The customer was good, but very demanding. There were 10 of each type, 130 in total. And I drew them at my own speed for a week. And Leroux remembered everything, how she makes 300, then 600 pieces.
Lera, you are just a craftswoman !!!!! And fast and beautiful

And with the dots, I really have trouble (((I put the lilac ones, and the next morning they fail in some places and the holes turn out. I had to brush with a new glaze with a brush. The feeling that the air gets into the glaze during mixing and then when it dries - the bubble comes out and there is a hole in. I often come out with my eyes drawn.
When I do the fill, then I go through with a toothpick, the bubbles come out and the fill is even, and the dots - you won't pick each one. Can someone tell me how to deal with this?
Here on SpongeBob you can see - before our eyes. The idea is not mine, I drew from some picture from Ineta.

Quote: Katerina79

And what is the matter I have already figured out. For points and any small things, the icing should be thicker. Even the one who was good at drawing in the morning can throw out such tricks in the evening!
Katerina79, Katya, thank you)) And how do you remove the tails from the circles when you paint with a thick one? Or how do you draw so that they are not?

Good evening, craftswomen!
So I decided to show one more of my gingerbread cookies. Please criticize. I would like to know my mistakes.
Hare. Curved, poorly cut the template, and, apparently, deformed during transfer.

Few bears. Making them was very fun, although it didn't work out what I wanted.

Hearts and flowers. There was an attempt to create lace, but it turned out to be "circle".
Nozzle 000 (manufactured by Martellato) seemed to be thin, but in my hands it did not give the line I would like ...

Nehorushka, dresses are cool.
Quote: DaNiSa

Nehorushka, very beautiful idea with gingerbread dresses! I took it to my bookmarks!
at the expense of the rest of the gingerbread ... you have a thick filling on some gingerbread, this is in front of a hare and a vest and pants for bears. well done
py. sy. the hare really turned out so sad
kolobashka, Thank you
DaNiSaThanks for the comments! I'm really having trouble with icing density. And dyes are not enough. I tried to tint the brown with cocoa.
With dresses, the idea is not mine, initially it was the idea of ​​decorating cupcakes, my "ideological plan" was only the shape of the gingerbread under the dress and the design of the skirt itself ...
The hare is sad, apparently because he has only one carrot. Hungry.
Quote: elena88

Nehorushka, Welcome! Oh, just cleared out of the rubble - and right here. Look, here the girls have already told you that the fill is too thick. This time. Second, the nozzle has nothing to do with it. It's just that for painting, the icing needs to be thicker, and for filling it is thinner.I'm trying to paint on a finger. You dip the tip of your finger into icing and turn it upside down. Wait 5 sec. If during this time the peak has not deformed, then you can draw. If blurry, add more powder and try again. And don't be discouraged. Some (I will not point a finger) are still suffering with filling. Only a few days ago I found out what kind of icing nozzle to knead and so that the gingerbread does not deform during transfer, cut it directly on the paper on which you bake, then removed the trimmings, and the gingerbread lies untouched. Although I try to transfer it, it is still better to cut out especially complex and large ones immediately on a baking sheet.
elena88, Thank you!
Next time I'll try to take into account the nuances of kneading and transferring.About a finger, I will now know
And which nozzle is more correct? I interfered with such spirals, which for mixing ...
Quote: Nehorushka
And which nozzle is more correct?
And who knows? Well, I’m a smart girl, I’ve read a lot of Czech craftswomen, they’re all, probably, sorceresses. They write in black and white not to whip icing, but to stir. And it's better with a spoon, not even a fork. So that there are no bubbles. For a hundred years I have stubbornly tried to knead icing with a spoon. And he, a scoundrel, exfoliates after drying and gets like marble spots. But I firmly remember: "Do not beat!" Suffered to death. Began to beat the protein first with a blender with a whisk attachment. And mix the powder with a spoon or a nozzle, which they make mashed potatoes (I don't know exactly what it is called). Got better. But all the same, the spotting appeared. But what does the power of the original source mean? It has been said - do not whip - even if you die, you cannot beat yourself. And the other day I spat on Czech traditions and beat the protein with a mixer until soft peaks and mixed in the sugar with the same nozzle. powder. I don't know if other girls do this, but I'm still looking at this coating - it does not delaminate. What should you call this story? Maybe a story of stupidity or impenetrable stubbornness. I dont know. But this fight against icing takes more nerves, effort and time for me than the painting itself.
elena88, So, here only by trial and error
Everything requires skill and training
Quote: DaNiSa

but normally they do, I beat with a mixer, with ordinary blades, like eggs for a biscuit, everything turned out the first time, and it turns out to this day ... with my left hind paw ... as you like

And here I did a little plagiarism. Based on gingerbread from our birthday girl (Nansy)
Natasha, thanks for the samples of your gingerbread. That's what I did. Well, about roses from icing, we talked yesterday. I realized my mistakes, I will be corrected.

Luda, it turned out very decently I can’t say anything about roses, because I have never tried it with a nozzle, but the overall impression is very, very ...
And the question is: did you place the gingerbread cookies on the baking cloth? Otherwise, I still can't dare to buy myself.
Either the hands do not reach, or it is not necessary too much ...
Quote: fomca

Ludmila, and I have such Natasha's sprinkles in bookmarks and in Wishlist, but I could not wind up roses ((((
They are so smart you have!
elena88, Lena, thanks for the tips. I will consider. Initially, I had normal icing for drawing. This is the correct icing. But I made these gingerbread cookies not on the first, but it seems on the third day from kneading and painting. Ising was wearing a cornet and I didn't want to knead him again. I just crumpled it in a bag and began to draw a pattern. Well, I got a white-transparent drawing. In general, she cheated.
By the way, all the gingerbread cookies are from your soft gingerbread dough. I like it very much and it is prepared well, not at all confused. I'm so lazy. I also made round and oval boxes out of it. The dough adheres perfectly to the baking dish. Does not slip.
I'm going to put them all in your Temka. I baked a lot of your dough for cakes. So thank you very much for the recipe.
Lena, here I am! I forgot to answer your question. No, this is not a baking cloth. These are napkins. But I have the fabric. I bake everything on it.And gingerbread as well. I dust the fabric with flour, roll it out right on it and bake it on it. I am very satisfied.

Wow, just like me I'm too lazy to mix it, especially when a little bit remains ... And then you suffer, you see that the nonsense comes out, and you still come to the conclusion that you need to mix it up again and do it normally. By the way, Luda, you tried to make curved gingerbread from this dough. So how? Something doesn't work out for me. Share your experience, show photos. I keep trying to dazzle the box on occasion, but it wasn't like that at all, I'm very glad that you liked the dough. I myself have tried different recipes, but I still come back to it. Because it's simple and not confusing. And I like everything to be done with my left hind paw ...

Kate Fedorova dough recipe
Thank you all for the praise, I am very pleased
Sahara, I have shown a couple of my works before, but no one commented on them, in general, I have not been doing gingerbread for a very long time, so there are not many works, there are several New Year's works, if interested, I can show
Vei, DaNiSa, I will write a dough recipe here
300 gr butter
250 g sugar
225 gr honey
725 gr flour
2 tsp baking soda
3 tsp dry ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
Melt butter + sugar + honey in a water bath. Sift all dry ingredients and mix. Pour melted sugar, honey, butter to dry ingredients and knead the dough. I stir with a wooden spoon and stir with my hand to distribute the flour evenly. No need to knead for a long time !!! Wrap the dough in a layer in plastic wrap and put in the refrigerator for 1.5 hours. Then I cut off a piece and roll it out (on parchment, and cover it with cling film on top) to 5 mm in thickness. Bake for about 10-12 minutes.
the finished dough can be stored in the refrigerator until I have the longest one for 2 weeks.
You can make a gingerbread house from this dough.

according to my observations, bubbles may appear on gingerbread during baking:
1) low quality flour. baked on flour for bread - everything is fine. took worse flour, every other time, it will appear.
2) with a long kneading dough.
The gingerbread cookies are very tasty, my clients really like it!
Quote: elena88

Kate fedorova, Katya, thanks for the recipe. Divide, as usual, by 3 and try. Just the dough is over, and the small one is already eating the gingerbread. Will have to knead soon. Here we will taste

kolobashka, Varvara, if your hands are golden, then what's the difference where they grow from ?! the glaze should not shine, it should have a glossy surface. And mind you - you should, but do not have to make the nozzle smaller and the joints of the lines more accurate, and everything will be cool. Although it seems good to me with this attachment.
elena88, you flatter me. I can't find the smallest attachment. I haven't done anything for a long time, just wooden hands. We need to train more often.

Thank you very much for the comment, I'm just learning, I'm trying, but the fill on the house is thick, but I realized this when there was icing in the bag, it was too lazy to squeeze it out ... I cut it out with molds, I make a gesture myself, I find ideas on the Internet, and I found the very idea of ​​tin in the same place, but I was just practicing, I was tired and my hands were no longer working, so I decided to just decorate it ... but I will take into account all the comments

Elena.P
Hello, craftswomen! I'm a beginner) Spent over a week like many to read the forum. The sea of ​​information, photos of the works were so inspired that I decided to finally try to bake soft gingerbread cookies for painting from elena88 and decorate them with icing. I liked the gingerbread! There were mistakes with icing (I added more powdered sugar to it, it was thick and the strip did not go as smoothly as I wanted. Diluted, it became better). It is clear that you need experience in this matter!
The question is ripe now for me. My husband tried the gingerbread and is not delighted with icing, says that it is too hard and teeth can be broken about it)) I cannot take a sample myself, because I cannot take sugar (but it seems that interest will overpower and in the end, I will not I will eat, of course, but at least I will bite))). Here I sit and think, maybe the truth is too hard, because the consistency was wrong? Or, is the husband just mischievous ?!)
P.s. And this is a photo of my first gingerbread. Do not pay attention to the oval gingerbread without edging)) The icing ended and the remnants squeezed out of the cornet somehow ... it turned out like flowers on it)))
Quote: Mona1

Elena.P, Lena, I don’t see any photos yet, about icing - it’s more fragile than so hard that it’s breaking your teeth. Perhaps this is precisely because they made a very thick and, possibly, a very thick layer. And how the icing itself was done - what recipe was it accidentally mixed by hand? It seems to me that the answers should be sought here.
Quote: elena88

Elena.P, Welcome! Glad that we liked the gingerbread !!! By the way, my son devours them by both cheeks in the morning along with porridge. Precisely without glaze. He likes unpainted ones more. I don't like sweets either. So it's a matter of taste. But there is no photo of gingerbread. Try to lay it out again.
Thank you very much for your reply! Ising whipped it by hand (more precisely, rubbed more than whipped it), took the recipe from someone here on the forum (I don't remember on which page, to be honest). The photo really didn't appear. Maybe I'm not inserting correctly? ... Tell me, please, where you can find information on this issue, if it's not difficult ... I would like to share the photo anyway))
Thank you very much for the recipe and the answer !!! I'll make another attempt with uploading photos, maybe this time it will work out)

my first gingerbread cookies ... On an oval one without edging, as I wrote above, I simply squeezed out the remnants of icing. It was a pity to throw them away, it turned out something like flowers)
Quote: klimentina

Elena.P, great start, well done!
Quote: elena88

Elena.P, well, good gingerbread. Again, we need to work on the consistency of icing, but this comes with experience. For lines thinner, a nozzle. Wet on wet is very good. Bulky roses are normal. But with a brush it turned out roughly - here you need to apply less icing and shade to transparency at the end of the stroke, then it will be more graceful. Our meters will come, maybe they will say something else
elena88, thank you very much for the detailed viewing! it is very important for a beginner to get a detailed analysis of his mistakes! The nozzle, I agree, was too big. You still need to train on icing more than once. I will take into account all the comments, I will slowly master this exciting business!
Quote: ledi

For starters, very good gingerbread. Toleo for the mesh should take a smaller nozzle. That the lines were thin
ledi, thanks! I am still wielding without attachments. I made a cornet from a bag. The pens were shaking while drawing) I agree completely, for the mesh you need a thin nozzle! But I so wanted to try that what I was, so I did))
Quote: elena88

Elena.P, I do not use attachments at all. She cut off the tip of the corner of the bag and - go! I’m not saying that this is good, I just don’t, but I’ll get ready to buy everything.

I'm with bears, I did it to school for my son Mishutka's birthday. I fiddled with it decently, although I expected to spend much more time. Well, and not without some trouble. I kneaded Lera's dough, I couldn't understand what was wrong, the dough is not elastic, you can't roll it out, it doesn't fit in the oven. I sinned that the lard was cold and did not go away. Only in the morning I noticed that there was powdered sugar in the bowl. I cooked it and forgot to pour it out. I thought that gingerbread would have to be thrown away, but no, they were still sweet from so much honey. Just a couple of pieces were missing, I kneaded half the norm, perfect gingerbread. Lacquer glaze with brown dye and cocoa. DO NOT do this, there is practically no color from cocoa, but there are grains.

Yes, the colors turned out somehow, at the request of the customer. They gathered there with gingerbreads to cover my cake, 1 year old to their princess Alice. The order was placed back in August, I accepted, but I hoped that they would forget about me before October or change their minds, I was afraid of something Alice, especially to draw her eyes, I never drew and I do not like this business. But the clients did not forget, moreover, every couple of weeks they reminded them that they were hoping for me. Well, and they said that the cake will be in lilac-yellow - some kind of flowers. Well, lilac goes well with yellow, and yellow with red, and so somehow it followed each other. They also ordered letters on skewers to stick into the cake. I immediately said that the gingerbread cookies are heavy, they generally wanted letters 12-13 cm high, they barely converged on 10. But they are heavy, and even with filling. And on the fill on the petals again a puncture. I poured it already at the end of the day, the icing for pouring lay for several hours in the bag, apparently, it began to exfoliate, when it poured the petals, it was straight transparent watery. On Alice's apron and on the sleeves, you can see that it is straight transparent. When it's dry, I look - there are holes on the petals. Well, I turn on hfantazia and decorate the petals with holes, well, all the rest, with stripes along the petals. In general, as if it was conceived.)))

Mona1, Tanya, I join in all the praises. The set was really a success. I am delighted! Original, fresh, bright, but not lurid. Stylish, in short. I don't see shoals. Forms by templates cut or die cut? I am now grinding out the felling areas of Smeshariki ...
elena88, Len, everything is according to templates, except for the key. This is a felling, our Lerochka gave me (thanks, Lerchik!). In general, I think that gingerbreads like this set are not very often ordered, and keeping cuttings for all this is just not enough cabinets. It is good to have cuttings that are often in demand - hearts, Easter eggs of different sizes and a couple of pasta, the same minions or Angry beads or Smeshariki, sponge beans. Well, and all sorts of animals for kids. You sculpt cuttings from a metal tape, right?
Quote: elena88

Well yes! I just don't know why I need felling? I don’t do it to order, but for my little son and templates would be enough ... But it is so convenient to work with felling - chick, that's all. In general, I found something to do with my hands. Hedgehog has already done it, now I'll start Krosh ...

Good afternoon, Craftswomen. Have you bought Alter icing from Soosodel. And how does he behave in business?
Quote: Vei

yes, they did, it has already been discussed here more than once. According to my observations, it has two disadvantages:
1) it adheres well to the gingerbread only with filling. Without pouring, lace painting breaks off on all my gingerbread cookies, regardless of the dough recipe. 2) It clogs fine nozzles. I sift it through a sieve to weed out sugar and citric acid, which has too large fractions. I don't dare to sow through organza, since it's not just powder, there is also dry protein. In order, as they say, not to throw out the child with water.

But in general it is quite convenient if there is no opportunity to buy finely ground powdered sugar and powdered protein.

Hello!
I am to you for help. I decided to make a big gingerbread (20 X 20 cm) on the mother-in-law's DR. I would have done a little better
After cooling down, the gingerbread went with spots and bumps (during baking and immediately after it was of a normal shade and even, but after complete cooling, it became so). I painted it. It turned out even worse. Even now I don’t know how to give this. It's a shame. And there is no time to remake.
Can anyone know why this could happen? Maybe someone had a similar experience.
We decorate gingerbread cookies, cookies
On small gingerbread from the same dough, this was not. Everything was baked normally and remained uniform. Maybe it's the size of the gingerbread?
Quote: ledi

NehorushkaI think you didn't bother him
ledi,
I baked it several times, trying different modes for a long time ... And then dried it.
While the hot one looks like it is ready ... It cools down, again the same thing.
Quote: Mona1

Nehorushka, how did you realize that you are ready? At first, I also did not bother, I could not catch the moment. You have to look at the central part of the gingerbread when baking, it looks a little sunken or flat and darker and more glossy compared to the matte edges. This means that it is damp in the heart, but when it becomes dull there too, and a pleasant bulge appears, it already means that it is necessary to prepare to take it out. Especially if the edges begin to brown a little. This is already ready, but I try not to allow the edges to brown, otherwise it may dry out. And yet, large gingerbread and baked longer than small ones. one and a half times longer, especially considering that we usually roll out large gingerbreads thicker.
Mona1, Yes, there was a bulge in the center. While the gingerbread is hot, it seemed to be of a uniform shade. The edges are brownish below.
Maybe I really caught the wrong moment? .. I baked it three times.
Eh .. Now just throw it away.
Quote: Mona1

Nehorushka, why throw it away? It is not visible there under the fill. And where there are open areas, also fill with a fill, but white, or red, for example, or lilac, it is beautifully combined with yellow. If I suddenly screw up, I always touch the uncured fill with my fingers, then flowers, leaves, ladybugs immediately appear there, as it should be. The customer thinks so. )))
Mona1, but will it greatly affect the taste? It's just that I myself have tried only small ones from this batch. They came out good, soft.
And this one, who knows: girl-th: And I planned this piece between the numbers without filling, maybe then try to fill it with white: girl-th: I still have white roses there. thanks for the advice
Mona1, dried on paper, put in a pizza box. I put it on the topmost cabinet in the kitchen (it is very hot there and small gingerbread cookies always dried up there)
harmful78, but I'll try to fill this piece too. Although in general, I am still very very dissatisfied with the general appearance. I imagined him differently
Yes, I also planned to transfer it to a substrate

How did you draw your fives? directly by hand or transferred the drawing to a gingerbread? they turned out to be different for you, which in this case is striking.
I think that the mother-in-law will still be happy, but next time it is better to cut the template out of paper and trace it with a simple charcoal pencil on the gingerbread so that the numbers are exactly the same.
otherwise cute gingerbread!
Vei, yes, they turned out to be different, it's true. I drew right away and the result of the curve. It would be better not to rush, but to make templates. Well, now it will be a lesson to me.

Girls, I ask for advice, ordered the muzzle of a Pikinesis, make this picture under the spoiler on a gingerbread with a diameter of 17-18 cm. The Pikinesis will be white, only a little black near the nose.I will outline the contour, the nose too, I will fill it with white, and then how to create the effect of wool, otherwise it’s just a white plate with a nose. ))) There is long hair on the ears, It seems to be somehow necessary to walk with a brush, but it's pure white. Light gray or what? And darkening around the spout with dry paint is probably necessary, right? But I don't seem to have a dry one, only brown, and the client says that brown is a plembrak, and she will give the leaders of some piquing club, and she offered a bunch of pictures to her, but she chose this one as the most ideal breed. on the carrot, of course, these measurements will not be. Here's who will say - how to show white wool and pour a dark gray fill around the spout, so that black is better drawn on it. Coloring muzzle is desirable, as in the second photo.

wow task! i won't help
Vera, it's good that this is an order for the 16th, so you have to have time to become an artist.)))

Tanya, pikenesa probably needs to be filled in several stages. To make the ears voluminous. And be sure to shade with dry dyes. But where can we get them? Difficult order.

baby doll, Julia, happy birthday! Happiness, joy, good luck
Mona1, Tan, did you think to make the texture of the wool a nozzle? So that it is voluminous. I will try to explain. Fill with the main color, and then apply the wool with a thin nozzle. The lower strands are long, the upper ones are shorter, so that the volume is. Something like this ... I don't know if she explained clearly. The order is complex, of course. Good luck.

Yes Yes! on dried icing, dip the brush into liquid icing, and then pat the gingerbread with the brush. I did the bears

Hello girls! There was absolutely no time to write even a couple of lines. Along with the day of the teacher, she was registering the child in kindergarten, a whole bunch of running around. Everyone new - Welcome to our company! The first gingerbread cookies are just wonderful!
Nehorushka, pour, of course, the gingerbread. Don't worry, it won't be dry - it absorbs moisture from icing and the big ones collect a lot of it. Therefore, they must be very carefully transferred to the box. And if you pack in a bag, then it is better to put a cardboard under the bottom, I cut it out of the cake base.

Lada2014, I subscribe to the comments that Elizabeth wrote. It turns out a lot, so now I just ordered a batch, I will have it just in case of emergency. And so I returned to the usual squirrel, the outbreak of salmonellosis in the city has long passed.

Mona1, Tanya, your Alice is just a miracle! I liked them all very much, and the hare in particular! And the letters are wonderful! The most beautiful set, I repeat again !!!

About the Pekingese. I don't think it is necessary to make the texture with a nozzle. Firstly, it will take a very long time, and secondly, it will not be quite similar. This is how I made the boy's hair, if you look at it, it’s OK, in postcards. I didn’t like it, but on dark it’s difficult to shade with color, so for now I’m doing this. It seems to me that if using icing, then it is better to try to make the texture with a wet brush. There was a video on how to decorate a wedding dress, here's something like that. Make a separate small gingerbread or several, pour over it, and then taste. Or on one different pieces. You also need to try to make the muzzle on a separate one, and shade on dark, and on white. By the way, you say you have no dye, but what about activated carbon? He is what we need ??? In general, this time I painted different gel details, diluted them with water on a plate as on a palette, and different shades turned out. But this, too, must be tried. It happened for a long time, but these are my thoughts. We can what will come in handy ... Or what kind of thought it will push you ...

I'll show you my autumn gingerbread.

I tried the American cutting of a maple leaf, the size of the gingerbread is about 20x20 cm:

By the way, I used alter icing here, otherwise I couldn't attach it anywhere for half a year, but here there is so much filling and there is no need for thin nozzles, which is just right.

Elizabeth, how bright and beautiful !!! I am delighted!!! And from brown curls bastard. Here's how to draw them like that ???

Vei, Lisa, cool sets turned out !! everything is tastefully selected and the colors are such autumn-autumn!
Quote: harmful78

Vei, Elizabeth, cool leaves! But they are so big !!! And on sticks. They hold on fine
not really, since the gingerbread is soft. For myself, I decided that according to Gerdin's recipe, you can make such on sticks, but according to Lerin's, not, only in boxes.

baby doll, Yulechka, happy birthday! All the best to you, most importantly, peace in our house.
elena88, Linen, long strands are difficult to make with a thin nozzle, if the coat is short normally. And I read a little painting lessons, how to draw wool with gouache, and so, it says that long wool cannot be drawn with thin long lines, because it will look like spaghetti, and here it will also come out with voluminous icing spaghetti. And they write how to draw long wool, but this method will not work here, the materials are not of such properties to do this.
harmful78, Lizochka, what kind of video, do we have it here?
I'm afraid of coal, the pike is snow-white, and coal can stain even what is not needed. And I will somehow dilute and shade the nose and around with a gel, but I will spread it over the ears to light white-gray and create texture with light strokes.
ledi, Ver, if you pat the dry icing with a brush in liquid icing, then for short-haired bears it will pass, but for a Pikinesse the ears are long-haired, they do not need disheveledness. I already thought about the brush. Most likely it should be the way you wrote it, but maybe not patting, but with such long strokes somehow in general, I will practice on something, there is still time.
Here the patch still comes out, my granddaughter is also two years old on the 16th, she will have a lot of new things to bake, I also don’t know how. And this pikineese just hangs on the soul like a stone. So it is necessary to deal with him on any number before the 13th, so that time and brains, and my hands for the granddaughter to be freed. I've found one sobatsyuru, however, collie or sheltie, their hair is also long, it seems that they did not fill it at all, but immediately they applied and smeared a thick icing with a brush, thicker than the pouring one. Here, girls, look under the spoiler. Sheltie, ugly, really, and there are two collies, it seems, they worked on one with a brush, and on the other they just shaded with color. But there are colors in the same place, and here - figs for you.

And all the same, I don’t like this, it’s lumpy-disheveled, but it’s like fluff to be. Can light strokes go with a wet icing brush over the fill and until it is dry, rub it lightly with sugar? Brad, huh?
I have such a plastic thing for creating texture on mastic - wood texture (like, small stripes, like bark), I thought I could anoint it with light gray paint and walk over a dried fill like a stamp, but the plastic is tough, I think it's a bad idea. I won't make a mastic gingerbread on top, I'll tell you right away. Now I'm running away to work, maybe someone else will submit ideas.
