Decorating a cake for a Christening

I am used to decorating my adorable little cupcakes, so decorating a cake with fondant is a challenge. Finally we got a cake decoration very special for the occasion.

Fonfant is a paste similar to plastiline but edible, used as a covering for certain preparations such as buns, cakes, muffins, etc. The ingredients of the fondant are: unflavored gelatin, cold water, glucose, glycerin, butter, icing sugar, flavoring to taste.

Make sure that the fondant has the perfect elasticity to start covering the cake, otherwise the fondant will become brittle and the molding process will be more difficult. 

Fruit Skiwers

Fruit skewers are good for eating in summer time, because they refresh us. They have low calories and provide water, vitamins, minerals and fiber. If we want to use them as dessert, we can add marshmallows and gummies to give them a sweeter touch and if we also complement them with melted chocolate, that is already a success assured, no one will be left without trying them. Fruit skewers are a good choice for desserts and summer parties because they entertain children with their different colors, textures and sweet flavors.

 

Ingredients:

- Fruits: Bananas, Kiwis, Pineapple, Strawberries

• - Sweets: Marsmallows, Gummies

1.- Wash and peel the fruits.
2.- Cut the fruit into pieces.

When I found this link that talks about the ten fruits that most benefits can provide to your health, I was very happy to know that three of the fruits of my skewers are on that list.

Kiwi for respiratory problems and cholesterol.

The blend of minerals, vitamins and phytonutrients make kiwifruit a protective food against respiratory diseases and heart disease, improve cardiovascular health, regulate blood pressure and reduce cholesterol levels.

Strawberries for tension.

The intake of five or six strawberries a day covers the recommended daily dose of vitamin C, reducing the risk of developing different types of cancer, such as the breast and stomach, help reduce blood pressure and ensure cardiovascular health.

Pineapple for several types of cancer.

It has a high content of bromelain, an enzyme that helps fight cancer cells and various types of infections. It also helps metabolize food, so it has diuretic properties.

Do not hesitate to prepare this dessert to accompany the meals, because besides being very healthy, it is very easy to do
