Easy Cake Decorating Ideas for a Mom's Day Cake

Your mother will be delighted that you have decorated a cake on her special day. After eating mother's day cakes all of those other year, Mom would appreciate some thing sophisticated. There are simple and options which are easy to create. You can decorate a mothers day cake with just a few basic cake-decorating supplies. No complicated frosting flowers necessary.

Edible Flowers

Buy chemical-free edible flowers within the produce section. Leave them as-is or sugar the flowers by gently brushing all of them with egg whites, sprinkling superfine sugar in it and allowing them to dry on the wire rack overnight. Write each child's name in icing and put an edible flower alongside each name. The icing could be colored to match a child's birthstone. Also place flowers round the outside edge of the cake.

Crossword Puzzle

In case your mom is a crossword puzzle enthusiast, decorate her cake just like a crossword puzzle. Create a grid with icing or place square or rectangular cookies around the cake. Put white icing within the squares (or on the cookies) where you'll write "Happy Mother's Day" or even the names and birthdates of her children. Decorate another squares with chocolate icing.

Quilt Cake


In case your Mom makes quilts, produce a simple quilt pattern around the cake. Before frosting the wedding cake, score grid lines having a toothpick and frost the different areas with various colors of frosting. Outline each square in icing and put a berry or dot of frosting in the corner of each square. Write her children's names around the cake, with one letter in every square, or draw a shape (like a heart or star) in every square.

Berries

Spell out "Mom" and her children's first initials around the cake in berries. Use blueberries for boys and raspberries for women. Also place fresh berries round the outside edge of the cake. In case your frosting is thick enough, show the children's names on the sides from the cake in blueberries. (Raspberries are extremely delicate to be pressed firmly in to the frosting.)

Edible Photo


Some bakeries can print an image of Mom and the kids on edible paper. Make a choice favorite photo that includes everyone, or several pictures showing each child participating in a favorite activity. If you use several photo, you can have them printed sufficiently small so that all the photos fit on top of the cake or place several photos on the sides of the cake.

Kids Go Wild


Give each child a tube of icing and allow them to write their names around the cake. Help smaller children sign their names, or allow them to place a blob of icing his or her signature. Let the kids cover all of those other cake with lines, dots and squiggles of icing.
