With only two minutes to decorate an entire cake, how do you think you would do? Personally, I think I would make a mess. Then I'd calmly tell the recipient, it really is the thought that counts, or I'd grab one of these easy-to-use cake stencils! That's why this little tutorial by Chef Tony of Got Cake? is so useful. The masterful chef shows how easy it is to decorate an entire bavarian cream vanilla cake in under two minutes.
Of course, Chef Tony has a more skillful hand than the average person, but really it's all in the technique. The video shows that it is important to let the tools do the work for you. With nothing but a piping bag, he is able to quickly decorate the cake. Not only does it look tasty, he creates a beautifully decadent chocolate design. What is most notable about his process is that he holds the piping bag in place. It's not the piping bag that moves, it's the cake.
With a steady hand, Chef Tony squeezes the piping bag and with the other hand, he carefully spins the cake on the plate. This expedites the process, all the while ensuring a design that is symmetrical, even, and intricate.
