[Anna26]

Anna26Anya, where have you disappeared? how did it end?

[Vera]

Veraand girls I'll try to answer. Yes, yes, yes, the pastry chef noted that Anina's toppers. Go to Anna's instagram a lilac cake with fairy-tale characters. and follow the link to the pastry chef and voila .... the toppers are marked. Nice to everyone!

[Olgabozhok]

Olgabozhok, almost 2 weeks have passed since the stained glass report. It turned out very nicely. How are they behaving now? Do they stick? color migration? how are they stored? And most importantly, what do they taste like?

PALETTE PETAL DUSTS for toning and detailing. This is something! I have been dreaming about this for a year now, but it is sold only in America. It's scary to order in the light of the relationship between our countries ... you never know what ((

Dreams Come True!!! Now I have it !!! The most complete, 72 colors. Hurray, hurray, uraaaaaaaa !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[I want a gingerbread]

I want a gingerbread, Congratulations!!! I have this set in my basket waiting in the wings. Soon my birthday will probably go broke)))
Is it possible in live photography?

[MsBee]

MsBee, Thank you) My daughter gave it to me. An acquaintance brought her from the States. I bought it on Amazon for $ 74.

They're big. 3 * 3cm and about 5mm thick. sooooo saturated, I tried to smear a little, the color is immediately visible, and it is shaded easily. It's even easier than eyeshadow))) so, I think, there will be more children and grandchildren.

[I want a gingerbread]

I want a gingerbreadWhat a beauty, I'm bastard, I really want to want to want to))) I found it on ebay, I'll probably order it anyway))

[Yulia]

almost 2 weeks have passed since the stained glass report. It turned out very nicely. How are they behaving now? Do they stick? color migration? how are they stored? And most importantly, what do they taste like?

Yulia, the surface was completely dry and did not stick at all, just in case, I nevertheless dried them for a week (Covering them with clean sheets of paper so that they would not get dusty) Then I packed them and gave them away But the daughter still ate one, according to her, it does not stick to her teeth, it tastes the same as usual Yesterday I was visiting a friend, there in a conspicuous place my gingerbread with a fish "flaunts", they say that it is a pity to eat)) So under the packaging it is also completely non-sticky, so feel free, Yulenka, make such gingerbread !))

Girls, it spun me around, such a meat grinder at home, I don’t want to tell, so there was no time for a chat. But thanks for worrying, yes, Lara is right, the cake maker noted me. And she did not mark it, allegedly because she had lost my page. Well, of course it was impossible to ask in WhatsApp. Now I don't think I need to remind her. Thanks for the advice, you are my good)

[Mona1]

Mona1, Mona1, Tanya, dear Tanya! I want to say thank you so much for a short master class on gingerbread in a message dated 17/11/2017; (I can't link to a specific message) in response to my request to tell. I write and exhibit photos not because it turned out beautifully, but this is my first experience, and my hand was trembling, and there was no talent. But I really want to say thank you - one family - my - you definitely made it happier)) it's so interesting to draw) we baked together with our little son, we'll load up our naive gingerbread for our relatives tomorrow) we'll surprise) once again, thank you so much, you didn't waste it in vain its time to describe the process.

Good afternoon, craftswomen! The question is so delicate - did you order funeral cakes? Google is not an assistant to me, not that not a lot - not at all (Maybe someone has something for example? You can in a personal. I would be very grateful. It is desirable without printing, equipment wet on wet + inscription, since I will sell very much cheap, up to 50 rubles / piece.Shape or circle or such an intricate square as below in the photo:




Well, a little of your creativity. Many ideas, especially massive ones, for the holidays, gingerbread, are still borrowed.I try to be creative in individual orders. They are not frequent, and, basically, these are bouquets for some reason)

[Elfa]

Elfa, Lena, very unexpectedly and pleasantly read today. I didn’t even expect, of course and didn’t count on such a pleasant review. But now I have become a little happier, because I have made someone's life warmer and more joyful. It is very pleasant, thank you very much, I am sure that all your loved ones appreciated your work and your little sons too! And gingerbread is such a thing, it delays and then you can't break out in the good sense of the word. And the fact that this is the first experience and somewhere it may not be ideal everywhere, but these are the first ones - they are the most expensive, they will remain so. If you don't give up this activity, then your hand will fill up over time and you will see growth every time, but these are also very good for the first. If you have any questions, you can write to me in a personal.



KaterinaM, Kate, flowers and figures are very neat, I really liked it! And what is the height of the figure?

[KaterinaM]

KaterinaM, I would not decorate the memorial gingerbreads at all, I would make them stuffed with dried fruits, and bathe them in sugar syrup. Or you can ask in church how it is right. The ceremonial kitchen is the ceremonial kitchen.

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, numbers 10 cm high.

I want a gingerbread, Julia, I would not do it at all, but a friend asks, with the inscriptions "We remember. We love. We grieve", "Memorial". I had a chance to see something like this with the inscription "Memorial" and ornaments on white glaze, everything was printed on a printer, not on paper, but directly.

asks a friend, with the inscriptions "We remember. We love. We grieve", "Memorial". I happened to see something like this with the inscription "Memorial"

Such gingerbread would not go down my throat ...

with the words "We remember. We love. We grieve",

For sure, for people to distribute gingerbreads, I would have made just Easter eggs, for example.

[KaterinaM]

KaterinaM, so maybe just black and white? White fill on the square, black label and vice versa. Without any other decor.

[kirpochka]

kirpochkaNatalia, thank you, I would most likely have done so, 40 days fall on Radonitsa, but the customer has her own idea ...

Selenia_Irisha, Irina, she stopped at the circle, and the inscription also asks for, and the pattern ("not floral, of course") ... I decided on the color of the inscription blue-gray, gray-green. I baked the gingerbread cookies, today at lunchtime I will make a couple of samples (with a wet border on wet and embossed) and send them for approval. I broke my head.

Good morning! Thank you to everyone on this thread for the beauty you create. You are warm, light, comfortable.
Eyes seen enough, soul caught fire, hands tried as best they could. She pleased her relatives with gifts, she herself is pleased

Girls, please tell me which one is better to buy an airbrush?

[lilycha]

lilycha, Airbrush in pastry art: a question

Girls, good afternoon! You haven't been here for a long time ... 🙄 I want to ask - do many people work on albumin? For some reason, the icing on dry protein is very bubbling ... Not over-whipped 100% !!! When painting on glaze, the paints lie flat, nothing floats. But when I pour in the gingerbread, there are so many bubbles and bubbles !!! ☹ Then I pierce them with an awl longer than I filled in the gingerbread itself ... 😭 and it's impossible to remove everything, there are so many of them ... Russian protein, Roskar. Beat small. or Wednesday. mixer speed. What could be the reason?

[poglazowa2011]

poglazowa2011exactly how step by step are you doing?
I really do not on albumin, but on albufix, but I will not say that there are a lot of bubbles.

I mix the protein powder with a powder spoon so that it mixes evenly with each other. Then I add water and a little citric acid. Beat small with a hand mixer. speed, then medium. I also tried to pre-soak the squirrel - no difference ... Nothing bubbles on a live squirrel ... And here ... 😣



MsBee, where do you buy Albufix and who is the manufacturer? There is sugar in Albufix, lim. acid, protein, etc., do I understand correctly? Do the sugar grains clog the nozzles?

[poglazowa2011]

poglazowa2011, I always do with soaking, in the sense of protein with water I stir, then powder.Do you pour through the bag? Maybe the hole is too big? Also as an option. Isn't icing watery?

I fill it in different ways - with a bag and nozzles. But the filling is bubbling everywhere, and thick - piping, volumetric filling, even small details - somewhere a bubble will definitely pop out, or even several. And it's so dreary to clean it all up afterwards! ..
Right now I am writing and thinking, but because of the lim. acid can't be like that? Maybe she gives such a reaction? It is necessary with lim. make juice ...

[MsBee]

MsBee, tell me, please, do you take Albufix or packaging in 5 kg packaging? And if the second option, then where, if not a secret?

[KaterinaM]

KaterinaM, yes no, we can buy from 100 grams, this is a confectionery store, but they do not send, that is, they only work offline.
If I am not mistaken on the Internet, you can buy craftology in the store, too, from 100 grams.

[MsBee]

MsBee, thanks for the tip)

Girls, hello everyone! I haven't been here for a long time. We did a lot of beauty))). I also wanted to show my first gingerbread. All the same, I decided and did

Girls, dear, we have dropped the topic! Come on, come out of the shadows, share your beauty, otherwise it's a mess! Now I’ll finish my 320 and I’ll also crawl out (if I don’t fall without feeling)))) In general, the general mobilization !!!

Dear gingerbread fairies! Tell me please!

The situation is this: I pour icing on the gingerbread, let it dry for a couple of hours, then paint on top with diluted gel dye. I leave it to dry. And the next day I find that the edges of the lettering / element I drew are blurred over the fill! I was so upset. What should I do if I paint under icing?

[alyona_kuchaeva]

alyona_kuchaeva, Alena, probably not UNDER icing, but by icing, right? A couple of hours is not enough for the subsequent painting with diluted gel paints. I usually flooded it in the morning, then the inscriptions in the evening. Or I fill in the evening, and paints - in the morning of the next day.
It may also be that it is very hot and the icing has already dried out, not only outside, where it was touched with a finger, but also inside, but the icing itself for pouring was quite liquid, when it dried it was matte, not glossy. When dry, it absorbs paint like blotting paper. Well, as if on a blotter, it diffuses, as it were. Well, or another reason - the gel dye is too diluted. For inscriptions, it is better to dilute not in water, but in alcohol or in vodka as a last resort, it dries faster. Well, analyze, based on all these possible points, what influenced you. Glad if I helped.

I read out of the corner of my eye that the icing should be glossy after drying, I'm just starting to decorate, tell me pliz. I get a matte finish.

[Mona1]

Mona1, thank you very much for the detailed answer! Very helpful! How to make glossy glaze? 🤔 I usually have it matte.

And in what ratio to dilute the gel dye in alcohol / vodka?

[alyona_kuchaeva]

alyona_kuchaeva, Alena, I make the filling thicker, that's when it does not flow straight, but like sour cream 15% and I put it in the middle, leveled it with a spoon and then shove it to the edges with a toothpick, then tap on the table and move it back and forth, so that leveled out. Well, the drying temperature should be high - in summer it's good, in the heat, or someone dries in the oven or with a fan, but I don't do that, I won't tell you how. But when it rains and the humidity is high, or in the fall, when the heating has not yet been turned on, the room is cold and dries for a very long time, then it’s a shah, not a surface. In general, in short: Ice density and temperature-humidity. This is what affects. I want to say that I do icing on live proteins, not according to Spence. Therefore, I will not tell you how Spence icing or albumin icing behaves, I don’t know.

[Mona1]

Mona1, I also cook on ordinary proteins. I'll look for oven drying, thanks

[alyona_kuchaeva]

alyona_kuchaeva, Alyona, I sometimes dry in the oven, it is very convenient if the gingerbread is poured and you need to paint right away. Oven at 50 degrees-maximum (I even open the door a little) for 5-10 minutes, and you're done. I poured this gingerbread, 10 minutes in the oven and immediately began to draw on it

[alyona_kuchaeva]

alyona_kuchaeva, I heard that it works great with a heat-blowing fan. In the oven, it seems to me that the gingerbread itself will be very dry. I also heard that they are dried in a vegetable dryer, there are many tiers, you can conveniently place gingerbread on them. But you also have to try, I don't know how it will turn out. I dry it simply on the table or under a table lamp (incandescent lamp, it radiates heat). When it rained heavily, it was the only way it dried up, everyone did not fit, but at least the most valuable ones were saved.

I dry it in a dehydrator, quickly, I like it. I also add glucose syrup to icing for shine.

[MsBee]

Drying in a dehydrator, quickly

And at what temperature?

for shine I add glucose syrup to icing

MsBee, Nastya, can you tell us a little more about the syrup: is there any proportion?

Gingerbread recipe-1
Like, say, girls)))
While mine are asleep, I write quickly.
The first recipe, the gingerbread cookies are chubby, and very, very soft, but they are quite suitable for painting, I think that they will go to the Christmas tree, as, despite the thickness, they are light.
honey-500 g
oil-200 g
icing sugar-200 g
flour-1 kg
soda - 2 tsp. with a small slide (about 12 g)
ground spices - 25 g of cinnamon, 5 g - ginger, 3 g - cloves or a spicy bouquet at your discretion
eggs - 5 small pieces (I got 280 g), if the eggs are large, then 4 pieces are enough.

Lera, your recipes just need to be decorated with separate themes, for bookmarks)))) I really liked your first recipe for soft gingerbread, but since I'm not a gingerbread cookie, but I specialize more in cakes, I don't need gingerbread often and little by little - three- four gingerbread for the cake. Accordingly, a recipe for a long-term storage test in the refrigerator was needed. So that every time you do not knead a small lump of dough. This one fit perfectly. I replaced the powder with sugar, it also dissolved normally. And of course, from your past recipe I added orange zest. I love gingerbread with her, zest is now my favorite spice for gingerbread. Thank you so much for sharing the recipes!

[Olgabozhok]

OlgabozhokGod, what a gingerbread! Just awesome! Do you dilute the dye in vodka / alcohol? What is the ratio?

[alyona_kuchaeva]

alyona_kuchaeva, Alena, thank you !!! : friends: I used to mix it with vodka. But lately I have been drawing with water, right on a large palette (or even two) I dilute it to the color I need, combine different shades. I use the "Stretch" method - that is, I have drawn a contour with a brush with paint, and then with a semi-dry clean brush I stretch this paint over the rest of the surface, and thus I get an additional visual volume.

And of course, from your past recipe I added orange zest. I love gingerbread with her, zest is now my favorite spice for gingerbread

I also always bake with orange gingerbread zest, zapaaah: girl_love: Sometimes I also add lemon zest, it also turns out very interesting))

[plasmo4ka]

plasmo4ka, dry at 40 ° С
And I add glucose syrup when mixing icing at the rate of 1 tsp. for 1 kg of powder

[MsBee]

MsBee, Nastya, Thank you!

I decorate my gingerbreads for the third time in my life, but I like them.
