Enter the wonderful world of cake design with KnifeLeader.eu! So what is cake design? Do you think this type of cake comes straight from the USA? Well, it's not! Incredible as it may seem, it actually originated in France! In fact, this culinary art form originated in France in the Middle Ages, when pastry chefs created large tiered cakes decorated with flowers and sculptures in sugar paste. This is still the case today, with such a craze that there are TV shows that deal specifically with this theme! The art lies not so much in the making of the cake - although there are some amazingly original cakes, such as the gravity cake, which defies the laws of weightlessness - as in the way it is decorated, with mirror icing, food coloring or sweet decorations. A multitude ofpastry utensils and cake decorations have been created, and the number continues to grow. The only limit is your imagination!
