Valentine's Day: heart-shaped cake decorations
Heart-shaped molds, cookie cutters, and red or pink food colorings for a cake or biscuits with a Valentine's Day theme.
Heart-shaped molds and cookie cutters
Heart-shaped silicone molds provide a clean base for a layer cake or entremets. Heart-shaped cookie cutters, available in several sizes, cut biscuits to assemble or give as a set.
Colors and finishes
Red and pink food colorings, used alone or in gradients, tint icing and fondant. Heart- or letter-shaped sugar decorations complete the surface without any additional modeling.
Frequently asked questions
Which mold should you choose for a heart-shaped layer cake?
A silicone mold with clean edges makes unmolding easier and preserves the shape during baking, unlike a standard mold with the shape cut out after baking.
How can you achieve a vibrant red without thinning the fondant?
A concentrated gel or powdered coloring adds color without adding water to the mixture, unlike liquid coloring, which can alter the texture.
Can this theme be used for a couple’s anniversary?
Yes, heart-shaped molds and cookie cutters are suitable for any occasion celebrating a couple, not just February 14.
