We decorate gingerbread cookies, cookies

[harmful78]

harmful78,

Winx? Or simple ones?

Anyone! Even if I break my eyes over the lace, on a skewer, not on a skewer, of any design - 100 rubles. Well, it's true, I've never done super big, my biggest is 15 centimeters

Mona1, what, show me?)

[mamo4ka]

About by the piece. While I was writing, I remembered a case. I had it before Mother's Day. The holiday was on Sunday. And on Monday, in a week I made gingerbread, as I remember now, for 80 rubles each and put them up for sale at the local forum. And some lady was very fired up to buy one such gingerbread from me. I tell her: you can come and pick it up from me on Friday (I think the holiday is on Sunday, if it doesn't suddenly take it away, I'll give it to the first person who arrives on Saturday). And she told me: I can only on Sunday, not earlier. I write to her again: then transfer the money to my card and take it back on Sunday. To which they replied: I give the money only in person upon receipt. I again: then take it on Friday, and she told me: I can't on Friday ... In short, after that I boiled and could hardly restrain myself so as not to write nasty things. And most importantly, I explain that even one gingerbread is the time spent on baking and painting. And than I spend it on a gingerbread, which may not be taken, I'd rather lie on the sofa. Useless

I'm interested too

mamo4ka, finally reached your kolobok. Just ask right away, no offense, because there will be criticism. First, the bun itself is uneven. That is, the face is not round, but what is that uneven circle. Before doing such important things (circles, they are very bad for me), I am looking for something suitable - a glass, a mug, a plate, and I trace its outline with a needle or a marker. Then I draw a circle along this contour. The second thing you immediately notice is the eyes. They also had to be pre-marked: where the pupil will be, what shape it will be and how much space it will take. If you don't have artistic skills, you can find a drawing on the internet, increase it to the size you need and move your eyes from there. They may not be very expressive, but at least they will turn out to be the same. And the third is incomprehensible pink things on the cheeks. They are definitely superfluous there. On the positive side, I note a good fill. She played a little on a scarf, but on her face it was very good.

Posted Friday 15 Apr 2016 11:47 AM

Just ask you not to be offended ... I understand that this is an achievement and progress for you, but I would like to note the details that spoil the look of the gingerbread. And the person himself, due to his inexperience, does not notice this yet. Like me on my first Peppa

Aya would not find fault with the face at all. I like it, the face should not be clear in a circle, especially in a scarf, but dots, yes, why? Although she herself will not stop as she carries it. Yesterday I drew cheeks for the chicken this way and that, in the end I took small peas with powder and sprinkled it

I don't know, I can't find Lisa's monsters, I've already rummaged half of the forum. I think about yes, about 13-15 centimeters. On a 10 cm gingerbread, the face will be simply unrealistically small, I can't even imagine how to draw it

my gingerbread cookies were about 18 cm in size or something, I don't remember either, I couldn't do it anymore, these are cake toppers, people save, most likely they ordered the cake, I don't know where, I only have gingerbread, although maybe they did baked (but I doubt very much). And homemade cake is generally low. But they ordered me from the palm and sent these monsters with their feet.



by the way, except for a dry thank you even before they saw the gingerbread, no one else wrote or said anything.It was not very pleasant, I console myself only with the fact that I myself am personally satisfied with them, and I think that they could not be disappointed either by their appearance or taste. And the owner of the salon ordered them, who cuts me. It would seem that the service sector also knows what a client's gratitude or lack thereof is. It’s probably stupid, but I don’t want to go to her anymore, as it was cut off.

[Vei]

Vei, Lisa, you are a heroine! It's impossible to do this with your own hands !!! (I'm talking about monsters). I'm shocked. I'm going to dunk ...

These are 8 rubles. round with letters. Diameter 4 cm. Covered with varnish.

[Mona1]

Mona1,
damn, well, it's still cheap! Did you even beat off the food on them? Didn't you?

Girls, advise. what to do. The hare's right ear falls off. The first time not yet decorated has suffered, yesterday this one. Can stick a toothpick when baking

[Anna26]

Anna26, Anh, the products are being fought back, but for six months no one has ordered yet. I did what in the photo for the photo, then fed it to my own.

[ledi]

such a bun

Larissa, what is the size of the gingerbread?
Sorry, but he didn't work out something) ... and the eyes are different, not round, but why does he need pimples?) Do not be offended, eh?))

Liza, sometimes people are very callous, they don't see anyone or anything behind them .. And they don't want to think about how much work you've put in! The job is well done and you know it! Forget and rejoice further!)

Added Friday 15 Apr 2016 3:53 PM

ledi, Vera, if you still bake in raw gingerbread, press your ear lower, like the left one .. Do not make yourself any problems))

[ledi]

ledi,
icing glue, firmly grabbed

Girls. thanks for the criticism! Since I am a beginner gingerbread business and my ideas are practically not all slammed on the Internet. I enlarged the drawing and printed it out of the dough and cut it out. It was baked round and flat, but I translated the drawing with a needle and here is the result. Yes, the barrels dripped, shifted the icing. But the freckles, my daughter and I really like, maybe a little too big, but so in the original. The size of the gingerbread is 18 * 21. The artistic hist (talent) is completely absent and the eyes are frowning. Baked for the bakery director.

[ledi]

ledi,
icing glue, firmly grabbed

pasted on a test gingerbread. but I don't like this option. suddenly, someone buys and the ear immediately disappears. Or I will not inform the consumer. It will be a shame, sorry for my work. How to do without gluing? I already think to bend the shape or something, so that the ear does not stick out so much.

[harmful78]

I already think to bend the shape or something, so that the ear does not stick out so much.

If it's not difficult, then bend it.
It's even easier to lower your ear before baking

Such a bun was taken from me today

Larissa, I haven't read it yet, I thought it was a grandmother with aching teeth, like she has a handkerchief tied like that! This is my fantasy!
And the bun is cute, the girls have already suggested to you the little nuances

Posted on Friday 15 Apr 2016 8:56 PM

It was not very pleasant, I console myself only with the fact that I myself am personally satisfied with them, and I think that they could not be disappointed either by their appearance or taste.

Lisa, that's right! You know they are awesome!
And they are such clients, their gratitude is sometimes delayed for a year! (yes, you yourself have come across this).
Today a client calls, albeit about the cakes, says: we ordered a cake from you a year ago and told me a lot of pleasantries. And I didn't have to wait long, just a year
So you discard it early!

Added Friday 15 Apr 2016 8:58 PM

harmful78, Lisa, you have a stable high quality !!!
Mickey is very cool, stop picking on yourself, everything is super!

a grandmother with bad teeth, like she has a handkerchief tied!

Virgin, I Right now I haunted a gingerbread egg in chocolate, and so it is soft inside! I will do more!

these are cake toppers

How, how do you draw them ?! Magnificent girls! Liza, how thick are you making the topper? It seems to me that if you do it like a gingerbread, plump, it will collapse on the cake. My daughter is 16 in July, I want to train and make a surprise

[kolobashka]

kolobashka, is that what the silicone mold did? Tell the technology, it's interesting already

Added Saturday 16 Apr 2016 07:33 AM

Liza, people just don't understand how long it takes. In the mind of the majority, this is the same as coloring with pencils. They do not know such nuances as stirring flowers, selecting density and drying in detail. They have no idea how many bags of icing need to be prepared, and - most importantly - they do not understand that icing is not pencils. Such perfect similarity in drawing is difficult to achieve. People do not see all this and believe that such money is paid unreasonably. well i think so

Added Saturday 16 Apr 2016 07:35 AM

It’s probably stupid, but I don’t want to go to her anymore

nothing is stupid, I would not go or go once for reconnaissance, hoping to still hear the words of gratitude. And in case of silence, I would definitely not go anymore

[harmful78]

harmful78, yeah. Well, I poured chocolate into the silicone half, pressed a gingerbread egg into it, it froze in the refrigerator, the silicone from the chocolate did not stick well. Repeated with the other side. Then a closed star poured a barrel from a bag with a nozzle. I did not spare the chocolate, it turned out to be a thick layer. These clumsy ones came out, when I make new ones, I will show them.

[Barbara]

Barbara, and the eggs themselves baked? They get thick then. And how much dough in such a shape? 1/2, 1/3?

Added Saturday 16 Apr 2016 10:48 AM

And I'll show you two gifts. I made the letters for a girl whose birthday is on April 12th. Size 8 cm


And a set for the birth of a girl. Calendar, weight and alarm clock 10 cm each, the rest are a little smaller. Gilded with kandurin. I spent more than an hour on gilding and thought: well, is there really no paint that can be added to icing so that it becomes gold ???

Liza, how thick are you making the topper?

I always have a gingerbread thickness of about 1.5 cm. They are light, they will not destroy anything, you just do not need to stick a skewer into the cake right away, but first insert a tube, cut to the height of the cake, into the cake, and then a gingerbread skewer into it.

Added Saturday 16 Apr 2016 12:51 PM

Liza, people just don't understand how long it takes.

I just now remembered that in the summer I just brought her a cream cake with strawberries and berries like Frezier, a pretty cake, and the cream is good there - ala charlotte, only it was light, summer. So she said thank you, as for the laundry soap in household goods and that's it. There were no discounts, then she didn't write or call, she didn't say anything about the taste. And the cake was incredibly tasty and very beautiful. Only I am not vindictive, I quickly erase such unpleasant moments from my memory, I do not accumulate negative. And then as for the first time I get upset and offended ((
I don't want to see her.

[Vei]

Vei,
Liz, don't be upset, this kind of consumerist attitude can often be found. Paying attention to health is not enough for everyone. Keep communication to a minimum and live in peace. There are still more grateful clients. One girl also ordered a cinnabon from me, I baked them, gave them to her in the heat of the heat (although I don’t like making such pastries to order, it’s too troublesome, and even more complicated by the fact that it’s necessary to give them hot), so then I didn't write anything on the page, or in a personal. Well, I chalked it up to her age (19 years old). We can grow wiser.

[harmful78]

harmful78, the eggs are baked. I rolled the testicle with my hands, then pressed it into shape, it rose well there, like an oval. It turned out to be round on one side, on the other with an ornament. Only now it was not smooth out of the form, in some places it even adhered to the form and came off ugly.

Added Saturday 16 Apr 2016 3:30 pm

harmful78, Liza, such lovely setters. I was so tormented with kandurin the other day.Did you do it with alcohol?

Almost with vodka

[harmful78]

harmful78, Liza, spent so much time in vain) Very gentle and beautiful!
Both sets are a clean job!

girls, what do you paint? black icing ??? when coloring it does not give color? when the child paints

Gilded with kandurin.

Liza, what kind of brush did she use? Everything is so neat, and even when I paint on my hands, I tremble.

[Alina]

Alina, the question is not clear

Alina, I did the outline on the coloring with black icing. When painting, it smears if the brush is very wet, and if it is normal, then everything worked out very well. My daughter at 3.5 years old only got a little rub in one place

Girls, here are mine. I just finished. You all have such serious Easter work - lace, patterns ... And I wanted something childish, bright and mischievous. In general, see. The idea is my own, I was carrying it for a week, I could hardly wait for the weekend)))

and what do you make of the paint-palette? just dripping dye ??? or breed with something ???

[Anna26]

what brush did you work

According to my number 2, only I cut it to be shorter. After trimming, the result is definitely better

Added Sunday 17 Apr 2016 06:05

Anna26, such a good idea was so bright, colorful, straight spring ... The only thing - it seems to me that the roses are too big. It should be smaller. Or even draw simple flowers there, such as daisies

[Anna26]

Anna26, oh what funny! Are the eggs real or gingerbread? If gingerbread, where is the seam?

girls what are you talking about? I can't understand, but I wonder

Added Sunday 17 Apr 2016 08:11

: girl_red: I would like to share about frozen icing. When I got sick and could not decorate the gingerbread (this is back in November), I stuffed a full 700-gram tray of icing into the freezer, it was a pity to throw it away. So, yesterday I took it out and thawed it in the refrigerator. He looked as if he stood in the refrigerator for two days (honestly, I don't remember how long he stood in the refrigerator before freezing, maybe three days). I whipped it up a little, wanted to pour it on, but still didn't dare. I baked simple cheap gingerbread cookies on kefir and smeared them. Aising holds up perfectly, does not crumble. So you can freeze, I think you can use it for filling later. if I discovered America, sorry in advance. For some reason I thought that icing should not be frozen.

[Anna26]

Anna26, Anya, how I love this mischievous and cute. It turned out great. And the eggs there - are they purchased like sweets? In general, I liked everything very much, except for the roses. And I would not do them even less, I would simply replace them with simple flowers. A rose is a more noble flower, and chickens are in such a kind of rural-folk style, here are more simple flowers, of those that are not specially grown, but grow in fields, meadows - daisies, cornflowers, dandelions. But I would not put tulips here either, although they are not roses, they are not field roses either.

Added Sunday 17 Apr 2016 08:54

girls what are you talking about? I can't understand, but I wonder

I would also like to understand. Also interesting. After the question, I didn't understand anything. I read later - Verus is also unclear. Thought there was a mistake in the question. But then an answer came to the question, from which I realized that I did not understand anything.

Girls, that's what 🔗

Added Sunday 17 Apr 2016 09:05

or here 🔗
I looked at such, but so far I have not decided to do it. The problem also arose: what kind of paint is there? If pure dye, how much is needed? and how to pack so as not to smear? Because my dye never completely dries on the gingerbread

[ledi]

ledi, what kind of gingerbread cookies on kefir?

🔗

Yes, the usual, the recipe and the USSR. 0.5 kefir (sour cream can be used, in general, that was lying in the refrigerator), 500 g of sugar, a teaspoon of soda. a chip of salt, spices, whoever loves what, I remember my mother added mint drops, a little oil, 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. The dough is of medium thickness and not steep and not very soft, roll out plump cm 2, cut with a glass and bake. When the syrup is cool, boil the syrup to the skin (you need to look for the proportion, I did it yesterday with icing) and pour it into a bowl of gingerbread and stir the gingerbread until the fudge turns white. we get gingerbread as in a store by weight. I must say right away that they are not happy. I diluted the icing a lot, I thought it wouldn't be enough for everything, I had to mix the thick ones. And so that it would be nice to lay them out, so that they would not stick together, but I did not. They were so dry in my basin in a bunch. I didn't know what to take a picture: girl_haha: There are a lot of gingerbread, probably there were four baking sheets

they are not happy

And soft though? And you can't keep them for a long time, as I understand it.

[Anna26]

and what do you make of the paint-palette? just dripping dye ??? or breed with something ???

Alina, if you make a white fill on the gingerbread, then you paint with black icing. You can make a white outline on a pure gingerbread. Then you drip darker circles with colored icing ... When painting, a little drop of water ..

Added Sunday 17 Apr 2016 10:34 AM

Anna26, Anna, a neat village set!)) Daisies, bells are asking for))
PS The question, of course, is rhetorical ... How do chickens, hares, eggs, etc., have something to do with Easter and the resurrection of Jesus Christ !?

Added Sunday 17 Apr 2016 10:37 AM

about frozen icing.

Vera, she also wanted to experience everything) ... maybe you can still freeze))

can and can still be frozen))

Girls, since I mainly make gingerbread for myself, I often have icing. It's a pity to throw it away, so I put it on cling film, twist it with a sausage so that the air does not remain (I'm afraid that a crust may form there) in a bag and in a freezer. It goes perfectly for filling. I defrost it, leaving it in the refrigerator overnight and just straight out of the freezer, after 1-2 hours the icing was already defrosting, if necessary I look if I need to add a little powdered sugar

Are the eggs real or gingerbread? If gingerbread, where is the seam?

eggs are candies, ordinary "m & m" -siki, if you zoom in, you can even see the letters there. But I really wanted to, I didn’t intentionally hide the letters, like the chicken herself was surprised at what she took there. My son is shocked by brown eggs, says where did you see brown eggs)))). Girls, thanks for the praise and comments.

And soft though? And you can't keep them for a long time, as I understand it.

yes, soft. We didn’t spend a long time, then put the student's daughter in a bag, then treat the neighbors, take a tea with the employees to work

[Anna]

Girls, I have an emergency! Save! Yesterday I made a filling, for eggs (gingerbread), custom eggs. In the morning I got up not dry. The house is cool, turned on the heating, 13-14 hours have already passed. And the fill is soft. Share your experience if icing is sour, let's say sooooo sour (I don’t know how it happened, I put it down as usual, brushed the nuance-crumbling lemon into icing), it will at least someday dry out or remain soft inside. It goes well with gingerbread. My daughter is already on the sidelines clapping her hands. Freebie. And for me to redo.
Anna, adorable chickens. And the roses are quite pretty, it's not for an exhibition. And as a gift, if you give no one and does not understand, the brightness and singularity will amaze everyone. Mother dear spoke in verse. We need to rest.

I made letters for a girl whose birthday is April 12

Liza, cool letters, so space-space. The set is pretty, noble gold.

My own idea,

Anna26, funny chickens, looks great, and did not pay attention to roses, because the gaze stops at bright eggs.

girls, for the price, the size of the coloring 13 * 13, palette-7.5cm
eggs 12 * 9, palette 7.5cm

mamo4ka, do you want to dry it in the oven? Set 50 degrees, you can open the door.

Elya, I was already thinking about putting them in the oven, but hurray, hurray! the process went on, probably the house was humid, I will not turn off the gas at night. I saw your master class, your successful clients.

I saw your master class

what a masterclass, give me a link

[mamo4ka]

mamo4ka, Elya_lug,
Girls, chickens made yesterday, painted 9 pieces in the evening and seven more in the morning. So for today they all flew away. And what do you think - our provincial people, not spoiled by manual work, CHOOSE chickens, where there are more roses and their size is also larger. I was shocked! And they also asked for brighter gingerbread, more flowers and bows. Well, as they say, demand gives rise to supply, and today I have Easter bunnies in flowers)))). I confess right away, if it hadn't been asked, I myself would not have implemented such a design)

[Anna]

Anna, and what is the size of the chickens. I tried to make this shape, but there were many waves, on the head, ponytail, and I could not. And you have a simple squiggle and that's it. But the chicken is incomparable.
