Cake Stencils

Easter is coming up and I'm already thinking about baking ideas for spring. Whether you're hosting an elaborate bridal shower or a casual brunch, you can always add some elegance by using the indispensable Cake Stencils kit.

Easy and fun to use, the handy decorating set includes 8 food-grade plastic stencils for all your baking needs. The beautiful patterns include a delicate snowflake design, cute little birds nesting on tree branches, flower petals, and lacy doily shapes. It also comes with several cake and frosting recipes as well as stenciling instructions.

This kit will be in my baking drawer for many years to come. You can even crush some candies or cookies to create a design. How nifty is that? I think I might try using edible gold or silver leaf on a cake (or two) this year. What about you? Any fancy decorating tricks you'd like to learn?

How fun these are! And simple to use. They'd make any plain cake a work of art.
