HOW TO USE A CAKE STENCIL Royal Icing Raised Stencil (1) Cover your cake with fondant and let it sit until the fondant dries. (2) Prepare your royal icing to the right consistency (thick but spreadable). Color as desired. (3) Using your fingertips, apply some vegetable shortening to the surface to be stenciled. (4) Place the stencil on the cake; make sure it sits flat. (5) Secure to the cake stencil with the needles. (6) Then using the offset spatula, apply the royal icing. Use your icing scraper to scrap off the excess icing. (7) Finally, remove the needles and carefully lift off the cake stencil from the cake. (8) If your cake stencil doesn’t cover the whole cake at once, ensure that one application dries before you start on another side. Stenciling With Dry Edible Dust (1) Use your fingertips to apply vegetable shortening on the surface of the cake, then attach the cake stencil. (2) Go over the cake stencil with vegetable shortening again. (3) Then using a blush brush apply the edible dust. When you dip the whole surface of the brush into the edible luster dust, always ensure that you shake off the excess. If you don’t, you would have too much edible dust on the cake stencil and the design would be smudgy. (4) After covering all the designs on the cake stencil, ensure that you clean off all the excesses on the stencil before lifting it off the cake. Stenciling With Wet Edible Dust (1) For this method, you need edible spirit to liquefy the edible dust. The right consistency is that of a liquid gel paste food color. (2) Test the paste on a piece of fondant before you apply it on a larger surface area on your cake. (3) Then using a small cake decorating brush, paint over the patterns on the cake stencil. Ensure that it doesn’t seep underneath the cake stencil.
