We decorate gingerbread cookies, cookies

[Romashka_a]

this is the bear of Martha Torres, a very famous cookie artist))
there is no airbrush, this is already painted color icing and toning. But I don't know what she uses, dry paints or gel / water paints.
Tanya Borshcheva was at her MK, maybe she will be generous and share information)))

Lisa, thanks! how to achieve such a smooth transition? dry dye is applied with a brush or what? when I apply, I get some not quite cool dirty color ((dye dry French

Added on Tuesday 11 Oct 2016 11:30 am

Romashka_a, and where is the airbrush? I do not see. Piping - yes.

Anna, I just assumed because of my inexperience)))) I don’t understand yet how to achieve this with dry paints .... piping is how the head is made, right?)

[Romashka_a]

Romashka_a, the piping work was done with thick icing. The whole bear is made with thick icing, colored. For tinting, it is better to use pollen (dry dyes for toning flowers), and not ordinary dry dyes for mastic, baking ...

How is such a lid baked?

perhaps flagella roll and are laid out with a pattern. but, we can still assume that there is a board for embossing

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, but the size is not indicated there? Maybe they are very tiny ?! So there is a Chinese cookie press, but hardly, some guesses

[ledi]

ledi, Vera, there are no sizes.)) Here in this blog, these boxes and not only, so many miracles, I felt just mediocrity, how much more need to learn, even simple curls, and they are there, just AH!

🔗

Tanya, I remembered somewhere in the video I saw how they made a gingerbread heart, it was big and there the braid was glued like on a loaf, but it was simpler. And there are so many curls on the box

[Tanya]

Tanya, I think that these are bundles, as they make from yeast dough. One of the photographs shows how the flagellum is made. And they rise very roundly, so it won't work in the form

Girls, strongly pressed the plastic print ... the view is completely different)) they are obviously spreading flagella ...

Aniko (the author of this blog) published a book about 2 years ago, in which she gave recipes, including this test for bulk gingerbread, I bought almost a second copy)) but where I stuck it, I don’t remember for the life of me! I already wanted to see so many things in it, to refresh my memory, but I cannot find the book, as I fell through the ground. And after all, there are not so many places in the apartment, de it was possible for her to hide, maybe I gave it to someone to see, but they did not return it, but I don’t remember that?
But in any case, this is a dough with a small amount of fat and soda, they roll the flagella, stack everything, grease it with milk and bake it.

Girls, and I'm for advice. I looked at the cockerels on Instagram today. I want these straight I can not! I sit here and think about what to do: make and indicate the author of the idea under them; write in a personal and ask; Or do quietly and that's all .... In short, I don’t know ... For good, I would have written in a personal and asked, but I’m afraid - what if they oppose, what to do then ??? something like that

[harmful78]

harmful78, Liza, this topic has been discussed more than once ... you will make your own spices, put them out ...
Since the pictures are on the internet, anyone can copy ... The same as the cakes .. look how many copies are around .. good or bad, but their own ..
Do not worry, do your own, you still add something of your own .. everyone's hands are different!))

Added on Tuesday 11 Oct 2016 02:35 PM

Vei, Lisa, thank you very much for the tip!))
I hope you still find your treasure-book ... so sorry ... honestly ... it's a storehouse of knowledge ...

this is a storehouse of knowledge ...

Yes, to be honest, it was nice to hold it in my hands, but by the time I received it, I already knew almost everything from this book. That is why she got lost so easily. Then I wanted to show it to newcomers more than once, but in the end I can't find it.
I didn't pay attention to this topic with pigtails just because I wasn't going to do it.

[pssaha]

pssaha, Tatyana, yes, I know. But everything is so simple there that nothing can be subtracted, nothing can be added, okay, and the truth is everyone is copying. And these cockerels will disperse unambiguously throughout the country soon at the speed of light

Found this book on Google, for $ 25, it is on sale, in English.

[NatashaFeechka]

NatashaFeechka, thanks, I made a 3D typewriter .. look at page 71))

[harmful78]

harmful78, Lisa, under the photo of my gingerbread, I would write in the comments words of gratitude to the author for the idea, especially since you know who the author is.
I think she will be very pleased.
Another thing is to save a bunch of photos, and then, when it comes to gingerbread, you don't even remember who you got the idea from.

Girls, and I'm for advice. I looked at the cockerels on Instagram today. I want these straight I can not!

is there really no such picture on the Internet? Or the author of the gingerbread and came up with a picture? You could have copied from the drawing, or you have to look for an artist and ask permission. Let's say ceramic cockerels were made from the pictures and nothing, but here there are gingerbread cookies and gingerbread cookies are now a dime a dozen. Only they are different for everyone.

[Tanya]

Tanya, be careful: such separate links are a serious violation of the Forum Rules (clause 10).

Oh, sorry, I didn't know. I'll clean it up right now.

And I'm already all in my thoughts in the new year. I think while there is time to make samples and take pictures. The problem, as always, is the same: I want EVERYTHING! But it must be so that it was both simpler and more complicated. The only thing is that I don’t want to do houses at all And the main thing is that you’ll just decide what to do, and then bam - and something new and interesting Pinterest is already afraid to open

[FLOUR is 500g !!!]

Aniko (the author of this blog) released a book about 2 years ago in which she gave recipes ...

🔗

🔗

There is such a recipe for gingerbread from Aniko. Please note that FLOUR is 500g !!!
(Just the screenshot is made with repetition).

[_Milana_]

_Milana_, and I’m on that blog that I didn’t manage to post a link, there is a dough recipe written in English and not quite so, in terms of honey and sugar. And soda is also written there 18g, but they are given there for 1000g of flour. It is unclear why this is so.
And I finished my bicycle, and 2 boxes, well, a bunch of trailers here, but I did give it away yesterday.
Gingerbread with a bicycle - 20 * 18.5 cm

Box - diameter 14.5 cm, height - 6.5 cm

Box - heart - 16 * 15 * 6.5 cm

Well, just daisies

In general, she was a shock worker for capitalist labor. )))

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanyusha, most of all I liked the heart box and the Romakhs !!!!
Retro-gingerbread of antiquity was not enough for me ... prostiiiii ... I really want to put a newspaper imprint on it) let the haze ... and the inscription worn in block letters ...eh, the fantasy played out)) You have such a sleek newcomer))

[pssaha]

pssaha, Tan, in such an extreme, everything was done, except for daisies - for the first time, I was looking for drawings, I did templates for everything, yesterday I baked, the day's task was to decorate quickly - until 5 pm, in order to have time to take a picture, otherwise the customer must be given back at 8 am ... Therefore, the imprint of the newspaper - I, honestly, do not know how to mold it on varnish, so sho, the main thing for the client, there was a bike. A lantern nearby is a bonus.

[_Milana_]

_Milana_, and I’m on that blog that I didn’t manage to post a link, there is a dough recipe written in English and not quite so, in terms of honey and sugar. And soda is also written there 18g, but they are given there for 1000g of flour. It is unclear why this is so.

I think this is due to the fact that Aniko prepares different doughs for different gingerbread products, which differ in their properties. And Lisa wrote that there was more than one recipe in the book.

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanyusha, I liked the big one, and the lantern looks very original, I, too, on a gingerbread with varnish and would not think of something else to draw, and how to age. It turned out modestly, but original. Casket, I also liked the heart most of all, I recognize your rounded shapes.

Added Wednesday 12 Oct 2016 09:50 PM

And I brought a little Halloween, the order was made, although it was very hard work, I fell ill, fever, sinusitis, sneeze and all the other delights to a heap, I could hardly draw, my hands trembled terribly.
Gingerbread 9-12 cm, silhouettes sprinkled with black American sugar.

Lisa wrote that there was more than one recipe in the book.

one recipe was from Aniko, the second from Tunde and the third for bulky gingerbread.

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, and gold looks much better than silver. For an hour now I've been writing a phrase, good night everyone, we'll talk about the rest tomorrow.

[Mona1]

Mona1Wow what a big bike! And beautiful! The box-heart wounded in the very heart (I apologize for the tautology). I also have extreme this week, I just went to work from sick leave, I come in the evening - dinner, lessons, preparations for the next work (school) day. As a result, no more than 2 hours a day is left for gingerbread. And also an urgent order. Thank you girls for the idea of ​​the 17th birthday gingerbread. Here I report on the work done.

[Anna26]

Anna26, Anh, they turned out to be healthy fighters, muscles are so relief, just like real athletes turned out, and not one, but several, difficult. And it is clear that it was not copied from the gingerbread, but somewhere I just found pictures of the struggle and realized, right?
Lera, well, last year I still remember pumpkins for Halloween, and this year they are also cool, but I especially liked the witch here on a broomstick. Some kind of elegant, prim old lady in English.
And I treat this holiday, no matter how anyone speaks, as folklore, and, by the way, before Prince Vladimir, our ancestors were all pagans. Goblin, brownies, mermaids, black cats, fortune-telling on Christmas Eve, carols - well, then renounce everything. Now some modern cartoons are much more demonic. And Halloween is beautiful fairy tales, carols and chants, folklore in general.
That year I made a series of gingerbread cookies for this holiday, but somehow it is not customary for us to celebrate it, unlike the western regions of Ukraine, so I did not have a single order. Therefore, I will not make a new one, and if anyone wants, last year's photo will do for ordering.

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, thank you. You are right, I was tormented with them, it seems that there is nothing complicated, but again the size of the gingerbread is 10 cm in diameter, respectively, the figures are even smaller. I broke my eyes last night, but the customer is happy, so it’s not in vain. And yes, I swung the pictures from the Internet, copied them and forward

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, thank you very much!
Sometimes I have the impression that only you like my work.
You are a true friend!

[Sahara]

Sahara, why is that ?!) I also really like your work, Lera!) Especially from the last - "BUY!"))) And your scale always amazed me!)

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, thank you very much!
Sometimes I have the impression that only you like my work.
You are a true friend!

and I miss your work, you so rarely bring it. gingerbread is cool, but I don't like these horror movies

Added on Thursday, October 13, 2016 4:49 PM

Anna26, wow! how it all turned out super! The gingerbread with the inscription is simple, but so beautiful, or rather the inscription adorned it. Anya, do you immediately write with icing?

Added Thursday, 13 Oct 2016 16:51

Mona1, well, finally brought it! Successful! Only with the inscription that something is wrong. Probably Anya's style would fit here

Added Thursday, 13 Oct 2016 16:53

Tanya, I really liked the heart box, how all the same lacquer and embroidery decorates

[ledi]

ledi, Verochka, the inscription - I write everywhere in one handwriting, well, I am not able to do otherwise. Well, maybe you need something here with monograms, like on the curls by the lantern. I thought, at least to write the number 35 with monograms, already in the process of decorating I went to Google, I never found anything sensible, but the sun is setting, and I also need to dry it and cover it with canurin, and it will get dark soon and it was just NECESSARY have time to take a picture. In general, time trouble.

[Tanya]

Tanyawhat gingerbread

Added Thursday, October 13, 2016 6:16 PM

Anna, the gingerbread is super, and the fighters are just like real

I decided to exhibit my summer works on the theme of magic birds of happiness. I was very inspired by one order for a literary competition, the emblem of which was the Blue Bird. And then my customers picked up this topic.

Here it is - piping in its purest form))) I shot my hand before drawing on the gingerbread. By the way, I almost never draw a preliminary drawing on a gingerbread, as a rule I draw right away. Therefore, here I first tried to catch the movements in the drawing under the film, so that later I could draw directly over the glaze without sketches. It helps me.


again training options:



this is only a small part of all the birds, I don't know why the photo was uploaded upside down.
But further interesting variations on this theme have already gone. The most interesting for me from a creative point of view, I got great pleasure from the process.

Now we need to cook dinner, feed the family, tomorrow I'll lay out the rest. Although many of you have already seen everything in IS.

[Elizabeth]

ElizabethI am in happiness from these birds

[ledi]

ledi, no, Vera, I scratched at first. And the inscription turned out to be imperfect, just not visible from afar. Well, I wrote with the usual icing, but for the inscription, I suspect, you need some special one. For me, inscriptions are generally a sore point.

Added on Thursday, 13 Oct 2016 20:13

Mari_M, Thank you)

[Vei]

Vei, Liza, oh, as I remember my bird, I will shudder, how difficult it is to draw it, and here there are so many of them, and even all by hand, without a drawing, and even piping. In general, I faint. And how different is white and when painted, so elegant! And what is the size of the gingerbread, probably 12-13 centimeters?

[Vei]

Vei, oh-oh-oh-oh-oooh, it's just a blast of my creative imagination! They are delightful!

so many of them, and even all by hand, without a drawing, and even piping.

Tanya, this is just piping and you need to do it, it's faster and easier at times. But to draw, I also did not immediately catch the main drawing of the tail and what lines and how to draw. But after 50 pieces, I finally discovered it for myself)))
the next birds were already more interesting and better. I didn't want to repeat myself, so after the first order for a literary competition, where the birds had to be the same as on their logo. But in the subsequent ones I have already given free rein to my imagination))

[Sahara]

Sahara, Lera, your gingerbread cookies are perfect, you just look and admire!
Anna26, the fighters are so real and I like your signatures. such monogram classic, generally Turgenev. And sometimes you don't want to bring the consistency of icing to perfection at 2 am.
Vei, Smart birds! The main thing is one color is used.
Sahara, Vei, we are still studying and studying with you.

Romashka_a, an unusual bouquet, very original.
pssaha, here the machine is directly maddening. I envy the artists with white envy, but I can even tint or draw clumsy strokes.

dried under hot air

Sahara, Lera, thanks for the hint, I dried my own under a conventional fan heater. She cooked gingerbread for her student, and took her as a token of gratitude for the medicines. I decided to make a small mesh, in the end I lost the drawing. I don’t make a small mesh conclusion anymore.

Lera's dough, but with the addition of 20g cocoa per 1 kg, the cocoa was not of the best quality, for a long time I did not understand why the gingerbread cookies were baked, but wet.

and also found a webinar on piping, maybe someone will come in handy

video appeared?

[mamo4ka]

mamo4ka, Lorik, read my complaint about two in the morning!)))) Yes, it happens. A couple more times I set the alarm at half past four in the morning. But I am terribly long recovering from such feats, for several days then I can’t get enough sleep in order to enter the usual regime. But since there are not so many orders, I do not want to refuse anyone. But what am I ... On the forum there are girls much more heroic!

Added on Friday 14 Oct 2016 12:36 PM

Vei, Yes

[Vei]

Vei, Lisa, thanks! I looked from beginning to end. Interestingly, such training is paid?

[mamo4ka]

mamo4ka, Larissa, thanks for the reference!
Vei, Liza, thanks for helping insert the video tutorial!
Much informative and useful, I watch a video on piping for the first time, although I feel that it is not mine, but it is useful for development to watch.
By the way, I want to ask you this. The craftswoman in the video uses bakery bags so thin and rustling. I have disposable polyethylene, they are like ordinary dense polyethylene, and these rustle like thin paper, what are these bags? And isn't this type of bag used by many Hungarian craftswomen, when they paint gingerbread with these bags, without any attachments at all. In many videos, I noticed that they have the same thin, rustling and from above they are simply tied into a knot, they are so thin and pliable. But at the same time, they are strong enough that the hole does not expand when pressed. What are these bags and where to get them?

[Romashka_a]

Romashka_a, the piping work was done with thick icing. The whole bear is made with thick icing, colored. For tinting, it is better to use pollen (dry dyes for toning flowers), and not ordinary dry dyes for mastic, baking ...

Tatyana, yesterday I ran all over Minsk in search of pollen, we didn’t have it on a campaign ((or rather, I found one. overdue:))))))))))))))))))
Tell me, please, where do you get this pollen? can it be ordered from the same china, for example? or from Moscow? I tried to tint with ordinary dry ones, but there is no smooth transition and some kind of dirty color turns out (

Added Saturday 15 Oct 2016 03:03 AM

Lisa, thank you very much for the video !!! There are so many useful things)) especially for beginners like me)))))

[Tanya]

Tanya, I have them, too, rustling, generally not polite. but not like a film for flowers. They are also labeled in red, do you have the same? Plain Chinese Bags

Where did our Elena 88 go?

Added Saturday 15 Oct 2016 09:43 AM

Tanya, I have a question for you on the screen. Do you just outline the outline or do you draw all the details (parts, inside the shape)?

[Vera]

Vera, I don’t have bags without inscriptions, Lily Lyulyok once scored a lot. It was written that disposable polyethylene, oh they are so plump, so I got reusable. Mine and dry. with a red inscription, I saw a bunch on Ali, and did not order something, I stumbled ..
And I circle all the lines that I can't draw for myself with a small screen. Or where accuracy is very necessary, there I scratch with a needle in the old fashioned way.
Verochka, girls, if there are any questions about the screen, then in Temka ask where the screen is, otherwise it will be lost immediately, someone will need it and cannot find it.
