How to make a cake for a hockey player yourself from store sweets
First of all, it is worth preparing the basis for decoration. If there is no talent to bake pies or cakes, you can use the store option. It is enough to choose a dessert with a minimal design of the upper part, which then will have to be leveled with a silicone spatula.
Next, make a hockey cake using the simplest products:
- It is worth buying two types of cookies. It is enough to purchase cookies in chocolate (these will be the pucks) and the usual sand treat. It is necessary to lay or install a “puck” in the middle of the cake. Crumble light cookies. From the powder make 2 clubs crossed above or below the "washer".
- If the cake is decorated with white cream, then you can make a real installation of the gaming moment. Use the melted chocolate to draw the layout of the field. From the wafer sheets to build a gate. Players can become figures from table hockey.
- Against the background of a white cream cake, you can make an imitation of broken ice. You need to lay chocolate cookies on it. Break a thin bar of white chocolate. Set and sprinkle the chocolate blank around the cookies. This will result in a picture of breaking ice with a puck.
Using the simplest techniques and showing a little imagination, it is quite possible to recreate an episode from the presented sport. Additionally, you can arrange a tray on which to place a dessert. The easiest option is to “dress” the cake with a scarf of your favorite team.
What materials can be used to create a decor
Like any other confectionery, a hockey cake can be decorated using such "materials":
- Mastic is suitable for creating figures and elements of hockey attributes.
- Cream and chocolate icing can be useful for creating a pattern on the surface of the cake.
- To make interesting elements for decoration is quite possible from marzipans.
In any case, the cake for the hockey player is easy to make using several options for a delicious finish.
Fancy shape options for a sports dessert
A hockey cake does not have to be round:
- Confectionery can be coated with black cream, imitating a washer. Cut out the silhouette of the hockey player from mastic and lay it on the surface. Additionally, you can make an inscription.
- How do you like a helmet-shaped cake? Around it, place cupcakes that will mimic the pucks. From any cake you can form a helmet using cakes or cookies. Cream the workpiece and paint with chocolate.
- A club cake is an option for a small company. It is easy to make it from cakes of biscuit by folding a real club out of parts. The powder will be cookies or even cornflakes.
