Cake Stencils FAQs and How To Use Guide
- How do I use the Cake Stencil?
Step 1: Secure your stencil to your cake using one of the following techniques:
a) Cocktail Sticks: Stick food safe cocktail sticks through the each hole in the stencil and into your cake
b) Masking Tape: turn the sticky side of the masking tape away from your cake and loop through one of the side slits on the stencil. Fold the masking tape back on itself so it sticks to itself. Then wrap the stencil around your cake and take the other end of your masking tape and loop through the other slit in the stencil. Pull tight so that the stencil is held firmly in place around your cake and is straight.
Step 2: With a palette knife, use buttercream or similar to “paint” over the stencil and fill in all the holes in the stencil.
Step 3: Using a scraper ensure that the thickness of the icing is the same as the stencil material.
2. Is the Cake Stencil Reusable?
Yes, our Cake Stencils can be used again and again! Care should be taken to ensure that your Cake Stencil does not become damaged.
3. Can I put my Cake Stencil in the dishwasher?
No, the temperature in the dishwasher will cause your Cake Stencil to warp. The best way to clean your Stencil after use is to use warm soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth (do not use a scrawler as it will scratch the material). Then rinse with cool clean water.
