Valentine’s Day: heart-shaped cake decorations
Heart-shaped molds, cookie cutters, and red or pink food coloring for a cake or cookies with a Valentine’s Day theme.
Heart-shaped molds and cookie cutters
The heart-shaped silicone molds provide a neat base for a layer cake or entremets. The heart-shaped cookie cutters, in several sizes, cut cookies to assemble or give as a set.
Colors and finishes
Red and pink food coloring, used on their own or blended, add color to icing and fondant. Heart- or letter-shaped sugar decorations complete the surface without any extra modeling.
Frequently asked questions
Which mold should you choose for a heart-shaped layer cake?
A silicone mold with sharp edges makes it easier to release the cake and keeps its shape while baking, unlike a regular cake cut into shape after baking.
How can you get a vivid red without thinning the fondant?
Concentrated gel or powder food coloring adds color without adding water to the mixture, unlike liquid food coloring, which can change its texture.
Can you use this theme for a couple's anniversary?
Yes, heart-shaped molds and cookie cutters are suitable for any occasion celebrating a couple, not just Valentine's Day.
