4 quick and easy ways to decorate any cake

Easy cake decorations that look amazing! - by Laura Barry
  • 17 Dec 2019

We show you four quick and easy ways to decorate any cake that look amazing! 

A cake is one of those food items that can serve a multitude of purposes. From Birthdays and anniversaries, to family gatherings, celebrations and even - just because! 

 

However, when it comes to beautifully icing and decorating a cake, not everyone feels quite as confident at achieving that 'wow' factor. 

Fortunately, we have 4 quick and easy ways to decorate a cake in the video above!

1. Bundles of berries

A smattering of strawberries, blueberries and raspberries over white icing or cream is a delightfully simply yet visually lovely way to present a cake. 

2. Chocolate and nuts

Pulls together a selection of dark and milk chocolate sweet varieties and spread them across white icing or whipped cream, with a few cashews thrown in for interest.

3. Lovely lollies

Perfect for kids, a selection of jelly lollies in red, yellow, green, blue and orange make for fun cake topper. 

4. Fairy cake

Pick up a selection of musk lollies in pastel colours and crush them altogether before sprinkling over the cake. Add a few pink marshmallows for scale.
