Water-lily for your dishes
How nice when dishes are decorated in a some nice way, right?!
So, my idea is to make water-lily! I will explain how:
You may take the following vegetables for it: garden radish,
black radish, kohlrabi. The vegetable's shape should be roundish. Cut it on the same principle as lily looks. It should have 5-6 petals. So, at first slightly cut peel in 5-6 even parts. Then the second layer cut in the same way and so we may have 3 or more layers. In the middle make some hollows and put in them some straws of carrot, to make stamens.
Cream for Cake Decoration
Who said that you can't color cream? Several drops of food dye of different colors and your cake will become a masterpiece! For example, white and yellow camomiles on the green field, or the little ship from cookies sails on cream sea.
One more idea to add some cacao. Build a cake in the form of a mountain, smear it with cream. Place the half ruinous castle from biscuits cuttings. And the last touch - sprinkle the cake with cacao powder. Let the castle be mysterious and dark.
Cream is very "capricious" to work with, that's why you should know several rules:
- cream should be very cold (not less then 24 hours in a fridge)
- it's necessary to chill bowl and whisks, you can just put them on ice
- add 1 tbsp sugar powder and 1 tsp starch for 200 g cream
- whisk slowly, gradually adding speed
Cream is a perfect decoration for any cake, it will make a cake look more festive and unusual!
Creative ideas for making meals interesting
Everyday we eat the same food, sit at the same table, and do the same work… The life is boring, don't you think?
No! You can easily change the situation!
Start the day with a funny dish and I'm sure your spirits will rise!
My idea is to decorate food in a different way each time, or at least for the holidays.
It is not so difficult, you should take the same products as usual, but use your imagination a bit and that's all! Take a sandwich, roll sausage, cut the cucumber, and stick some olives.
Look at the pictures of this post - now you believe that you can do it? I'm sure you can!
Please your relatives, little sisters, brothers, or children with this idea.
More bright and colorful
Easter comes and you should already think what you will do for this holiday.
I want to use this idea this year and advise you to follow my advice.
People used to color eggs on this day. I want to make the process more creative and color the eggs with this tip.
If you want to color the eggs, but you don't have much time for painting flowers, rabbits, and different patterns, but still want them look beautiful, try to make the following: color them using the sponge!
This creative idea may result in a real piece of art!
Take a usual sponge, cut it into some pieces (for each color you want to use). Pour some water colored with special paints into a bowl. Now dip the sponge into the water and slightly touch the egg with it. You can use sponges of different color to paint the same egg, and it will be more bright and colorful!
For the final touch, find a small basket (or even a straw hat!) and put the eggs into. Decorate the basket with ribbons and flowers and it can serve as a perfect decoration to your festive table.
Amusing snacks ideas
Snacks are the perfect field for experiments. You can realize all your designing dreams by decorating these meals! They will amuse both- children and grown-ups.
It is very important to make interesting snacks as you put them on the table first.
I'd like to give you some ideas how to decorate the snacks for a holiday or just to brighten the every-day-table.
The first idea I want to share is how to make a fly-agaric. It will be perfect addition for cold snacks made of meat.
Boil an egg. Cut two egg tops from the both sides. Take a tomato and cut it in two parts. Cut out the pulp in the center. Put the tomato cap onto the egg stipe. Put the prepared "mushroom" on the salad leaf. Decorate the cap with mayonnaise drops. Now it is ready to serve.
The second idea is to make egg frogs. They will be good for a salad of fresh vegetables and cold snacks.
Boil an egg. Cut the bottom part of the egg off, and make a slight cut at the egg top so that yolk can be seen. Cut out the "tongue" of the tomato skin and put it into the egg top. Stick small peas into the egg to make eyes. Use onion slices to make the pads.
Now your meal can be served both with fly-agaric and frogs!
Hope these interesting ideas will be to your taste.
