We decorate gingerbread cookies, cookies

[Vei]

Vei, Yes, I have to, now I'll go right in and choose. Today I was making Lera's dough again. The first gingerbread is perfectly flat !!! The latter (15x20 in size) is all in small bubbles. And that's good, I looked through the glass in time and blew out two bubbles with my fingers.

it is a perfectly even boat, the latter is not in small bubbles here, it's a pity it's already flooded, it was necessary to take a picture without covering

An exquisite giraffe wanders ... (N. S. Gumilyov)

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, great! Especially with Gumilev, whom I, as a philologist, adore! The giraffe is a miracle! And his skin is decorated with a magical pattern!

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tan, well, you are a craftswoman, you drew such a giraffe. you already have your own style, humorous. Good girl !!! Happy holiday to all of you, DONCHAN !!!!

[Mona1]

Mona1, what a handsome! Very nice gingerbread.

[I do not insist, I do not condemn]

Thank you girls. To tell the truth, today I doubted the correctness of the choice of plots for the gingerbread. After one opinion about my gingerbread with a miner, which I posted here yesterday. One of them wrote to me: "How can you eat this?" I replied: "It's very simple." HE: "Sorry. No offense to say, but just as if I have a bad association with voodoo dolls. This is my personal quirk. Therefore I do not insist, I do not condemn and how I understand you.
But personally, I really wouldn't eat it, but keep it as an example of art. "
Well, what to do, what course to sail next? ... Oh, spit and forget.

[Mona1]

Mona1., Tanya, everyone has their own opinion. (He was simply offended that he lacked such beauty). And really good work (that cakes, that gingerbread) is a pity. And, it seems to me, this is just a compliment to you as a Master. I personally would keep such a gift and put it in a prominent place Only children in their spontaneity can chew any beauty without remorse
And the giraffe, in combination with Gumilev, is just lovely

came across a video about craquelure. such a method, it seems, we have not discussed here yet

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, pleased us with a `` giraffe ''!))
About the opinions of someone ... forget! You never know `` moved '' on this earth) ... so no cake would be eaten))
You have a great course! Swim to them! I didn't find the ship

girls, today I sat with them all day, but by September 1, I did the child

and here's another

well girl

[Anna26]

Anna26, super, no words.

[Marina22]

Marina22, Marina, thank you)

[Tatyana]

Tatyana,

Once mastic, why the circles are not even)))

Well ..... the gingerbreads themselves are uneven, I'm in search of a recipe, and I tried to make the mastic as thin as possible, no more than 1 mm, right on the gingerbread and rolled it out .... For home eating)))

[Anna26]

Anna26, Anya, super-duper gingerbread, such faces, lovely!

I came with my sadness. I have a gingerbread 20x15cm. I filled it with glaze. It dries for the second day, but the color along the edge is light, where 6-7mm from the edge, and everything else is dark, as if not dry enough. I dried it in the oven and so. I don’t know what to do. Probably too thick layer. How long does he have to dry or will he stay?

[Anna26]

Anna26, Anya, very cool school gingerbread cookies, I like all three. A schoolgirl on a notebook sheet, how many lines have you drawn so exactly under the ruler! And on the briefcase there are silver clasp beads, great. : bravo: and on the shoes, too, beads-fasteners, if I'm not mistaken! These are the nuances that make the gingerbread VERY cool! You drew a boy and a girl on a gingerbread without covering right away, but how did you shade it? dry dye, very cute muzzles. Only I can't understand what is this orange on a roll for a girl

[Anna26]

Anna26, oh how cool !!!!)
Notebook sheet
And the boy and the girl are great !!! There is a bird!?. Yes!?))

holganand glaze is icing? .. or what? ..
Why does it look darker .. I don't see much difference between raw and dry icing ...
In the oven on convection at 50 degrees, let it lie for two hours))

yes, girls, this damn bird is all raspberries ... well, you understand, you still thought, I shouldn't have put this muant there (((I shaded with kandurin, in general, with what it was, I need to buy pollen for the new year. ))

holgan, is the glaze icing? .. or what? ..

yes, icing.
I don't know why it happened, the first time is like a frame with fuzzy edges ((
in my oven you can put 40 or 100 at once, periodically dry it for 40 for half an hour, but I don't observe something, I can put it on for two hours at once

And my sales went! I thought I wouldn't sell one portion, I don't have a lot of subscribers in the networks. As a result, I had to knead twice more! The gingerbreads were mostly school ones, but here there were requests for kindergarten teachers. I came up with these things for them:

Size about 10 cm, Sahara dough.

[marikosha]

marikosha, Marisha, great! In general, I love those that look impressive, but you can do it quickly! So neat, clever)

Hello! I look at your beauty and am amazed at your skill and talent! What good fellows!
Girls! And for my granddaughter's birthday I need to make gingerbread cookies in the form of cards (themed "Alice in Wonderland) and a watch.) I am an absolute teapot! Help or poke on microns, the most simple."

[Irina742]

Irina742, Ira, have you ever tried to do icing, work with nozzles for painting (or cornets), do you have food colors (not the ones we paint eggs), but for icing? Because if you have never worked with such things, then this is probably difficult, you need a lot of MK for baking gingerbread, several different icing techniques, different decoration and painting techniques. On the first page of Temka we have both videos and recipes in the content. I have gingerbread Alice in Wonderland, but I was able to take on such work only after six months of active work on making gingerbread (and in parallel every night studying on the Internet one video, then another, then a description of some technique, or something else Knowledge is accumulating here very gradually. I really do not know such an MC to teach everything. I have gingerbread on the theme of Alice, here they are:

How they, and any others, are done: Do icing for the lines (density - so that it does not spread and be like a toothpaste in consistency).Fill it with a bag with a nozzle with a thin hole or a cornet (folded out of cellophane like a bag), or cut a very tiny corner in a dense plastic bag (like from milk). Well, draw the outlines of your figurine on the gingerbread. When it dries up, then with a more liquid icing painted in the desired color (according to the consistency of sour cream type 15%), fill the space between the outlined contours, smooth out with a toothpick in the corners, tap lightly with a gingerbread on the table to expel the bubbles, pierce them with a needle or toothpick. It dries up for several hours, then you can draw some small lines with food gel dyes diluted in a droplet of vodka over the dried brush. I have hearts on the cards there - these are not drawn, I did it from mastic. She also made mastic herself (there are also a lot of all her recipes), or there is a purchased one. I prepared hearts for a long time, like any other mastic, lies in bags, does not deteriorate. Just like the hearts, as soon as I filled the gingerbread with icing, it dried up for about five minutes and put a heart or a flower on it. It sticks and sticks. By the way, at first, and even now, YouTube helps me. Type there: icing for gingerbread and here's a bunch of video tutorials for YOU - how to make it. Or type: MK gingerbread painting and looking for what fits. Well, as I already wrote, look on the first page.

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, I myself wanted to answer, but I can't even imagine where to start. The most important thing here is the colossal experience plus the endless search for the right one. And one message, I think, does not even help a person.

[Mona1]

Mona1, Anna26, girls! Thank you very much for your reply! I, in general, understood all the complexity of cooking, but so that it was !!! I never dreamed of such a beauty, if only to buy (with pleasure) I thought it would be easier, but your beauties make me think that I should try this too (after all, it's a birthday every year!) And we will only be 5, and even a grandson was born.
I will go in small steps to the goal! Thanks again! The "bread machine" is always positive and very kind people!

Irina, well, if you have more than one time, then start from the very beginning) I wish everything to work out!

[Irina742]

Irina742, and you try from the simplest, the kids will be happy with everything and you will fill your hand a little (hearts, emoticons, stars ...)

marikosha, such a cool bear, my clients also sooo love polar bears.

[Irina742]

Irina742, Ira, yes, in small steps from simple to complex. and here we have many, including me, started with gingerbread for their home for birthdays, for Christmas. And little by little this case is so addictive that it is impossible to break free, and slowly develops into a profession. And when you are in love with this business, then this is just happiness and joy, and inspiration, you want to create something new and interesting, life ceases to be insipid, if it was. So do not be afraid, try the simplest first, if there are any questions in the process, we will always prompt you.

[Irina742]

Irina742When I wanted beautiful gingerbread, I studied forums for about a month, watched videos, read recommendations, studied other people's mistakes. Then she took up her own, and it turned out with a bang! This site gave me the most, honestly. Constructive criticism, only deserved praise, valuable advice! Thanks to all the girls for their responsiveness!

[marikosha]

marikosha, Well, Marin, you are lucky that FIRST you found the forums, and then got down to work. And I had an idea instantly, on the 31st I was sitting at work and thought that I would come running home now and bake gingerbread cookies))) The fact that they turned out to be wooden for me, I already told, but for me they were terribly beautiful, and my parents gasped too))) I do not delete a photo with my first classmates on purpose, I always remember how it all began) And then this lesson drew me in! All the New Year holidays I studied master classes, began to train and learn from my own and others' mistakes.Then I found this forum, and I want to say that the girls from KP taught me a lot, they will give advice on any question. Now I am very grateful to all the inhabitants of this forum and the Lord, for finally having something to my liking!)

Phew, finished another batch of gingerbread. There is still a lot to do

I am generally shocked by what I saw .... The gingerbread cookies are incredibly beautiful! I never thought that such beauty can be done with your hands! Well, you have to be an artist! In general, I bow to the skill of all gold pens!

[marikosha]

marikosha, Marina, it's great that the sale has gone !!))
Nice bears, neat and unusual)

This is my work by September 1, there were still pencils and bells, but I will not overload you with my work. I baked the house for the second time, for our first-grader friend. But for some reason he is going hard and all the shoals are visible in the photo. And I didn't even decorate it, they were already preparing the house for shipment, took a photo and realized that it was necessary to decorate the roof and walk the clearing like dots. Maybe more criticism? I liked the collected, the pride was bursting, and the photo is just awful !!!!. The leaves were made in two versions, wet on wet, and yellow according to Tanya's Mona1 recipe, with a pat and a brush I went through. I liked the Yellow ones, and the clients were the first to grind the brighter ones.

[mamo4ka]

mamo4ka, Laris, and what are the shoals? These houses are terribly difficult to assemble! I was making the box, while I collected it, I almost went nuts! And your school is great! And I liked the yellow leaf more, but I also noticed that people always grab a brighter one!

Non-standard use of standard forms)) When there are only hearts left, and people need gingerbread by September 1!)


Size about 10cm

or when it is necessary not for the teacher, but for the educator

[Anna26]

Anna26, yes, in principle, the house was for a baby, that's why I made it bright, I also made strawberry for my daughter and niece for her birthday. So everything was bright there. The tribe was 30 years old, and delight as in childhood. Yes, I made the house for a week. Anya, Freken Bock is gorgeous. I will not take up pictures, as it is scary, frightening the translation of the picture into a gingerbread.
marikosha, these gingerbread cookies are good for the Teacher's day, I made a pattern and drew lines and fields with paints, waved. Felt-tip pens are urgently needed (I understood correctly that you have everything lined with felt-tip pens). Ukrainian girls advise where to buy and which is better. That would be enough longer.

[mamo4ka]

mamo4kaThank you, Larissa) I rarely translate, I drew this gingerbread myself (copied) And don't be afraid, try, discover new opportunities for yourself)

[Larissa]

Larissa. Yes, for teachers day are good. They sorted out everything that was on the topic. There was only one notebook, a pencil and two of these hearts, just lined. Nobody coveted them. And last night a woman calls, she says, I really need to eat. Well, I offered, and she happily took it. I quickly signed and painted them on, planted ready-made roses on fresh leaves, and voila! And I drew with felt-tip pens, quickly and conveniently! Paints, of course, is to shoot yourself ...

[pssaha]

pssaha, AAAAA ... beauty, but did you make or buy the stencil for the veins?

[mamo4ka]

mamo4ka, Larissa, thanks, of course)) I think you can achieve a better effect with an aerom)) but I'm trying))
I just drew the veins with a brush)) and the sheet form is self-made)

Girls! Thank you all for your response and support! It's just unreal beauty! Even breathtaking. I have something in mind to try gingerbread with burnt sugar, what do you think?

[Irina742]

Irina742, my very first recipe, I made a gingerbread house out of it, but did not stop at it. And you might like it. I don't even remember the recipe.

[Anna26]

Anna26, AnyaFrekken conquered me very much, I like it very much, you know how to draw the shadows correctly right away as a figure becomes alive, I have problems with shadows so far.

Tanya, I'm not showing everything on the forum, I filled a lot of bumps with shadows, while I learned, and I still mow. I don’t know how anyone, but I’m only learning from my mistakes, I cannot learn from strangers (((Thank you for the kind words, Tanyushka. And in general, thanks to all the girls!

doubted the correct choice of plots for gingerbread

Tanya, do not hesitate - they are super awesome! The giraffe is generally cute. The miner is also good, but he has so many small details. And in my opinion they are all drawn with icing, right? In such cases, I got used to making the icing thicker and try at least something, but tint with a brush, it's faster. Just recently I did a pirate, so I filled his pants and shraga with white and then painted with a brush. It seems like a trifle, but all 2 colors can no longer be diluted


In general, such an attitude is like an attitude towards children made of mastic. Some say "it's okay", others say - there is such blasphemy

So, I made it as a gift in one night, I tried to blow the snail, as expected, it didn't work out very well, this is the first test of piping, I have only gel paints
in the process, of course, I realized how it could have been done better, wrote it down in my little book)) well, flowers, it was already 9 am, so the composition suffers slightly

[holgan]

holgan, wow, super! And now in more detail about the design, how is the pouring from the mushrooms not glass? And what did you bake the hat on, tell me?

[holgan]

holgan, wow, super! And now in more detail about the design, how is the pouring from the mushrooms not glass? And what did you bake the hat on, tell me?

Thank you! The design is not complicated, the hat is in the shape of a glass bowl-bowl, only I made a shape out of foil (I pushed it tightly inside the bowl, then covered it with baking paper), the leg did this too, I picked up a cup that fit the shape and made the bottom thicker, the top thinner. Then this form was taken out with a thick part outside. The leg turned out to be a bit short, I added a few round gingerbreads under the hat, they raised the hat. Then I really decided that it was better to do it differently, but this is another time))
I poured the hat on the wire rack with thick enough icing and immediately dry it in the oven so that it grabs. I applied the icing on the leg with a spatula, smoothed it out, it did not lie quite smoothly, like on the hat, it just is not visible in the photo. I turned the leg up and down so that the icing flows. Then I also dried it in the oven. For small hats I made foil molds just by eye. Look like that's it ))
