Cake Decorating Combs

Cake decorating requires some special tools in your bakery supply cabinet in order to get the textures, shapes and styles correct. Cake decorating combs are one such tool. Like a hair comb, these plastic or metal tools have “teeth,” or ridges, on one or more sides. These ridges may be in different patterns that create lovely and decorative ridges along the sides or tops of cakes that are covered in frosting—cake decorating combs are not typically meant for cakes decorated with fondant, this is because fondant is much thicker and stiffer than other frostings, like buttercream, to use this type of bakery supply tool on a fondant covered cake would be likely to ruin it. In fact, these combs are almost like sculpting tools, used primarily to manipulate smooth frosting for a different kind of look, one with contours, scalloped edges or even swirls and vertical designs, too. Cake decorating combs are handy tools for those who want a uniform look. These tools may require the decorator to add a greater amount of frosting to the cake initially, so that the ridges on the combs do not pull right through to the cake beneath. An interesting technique is to spray white frosting with coloring, when the cake decorating comb is drawn through the frosting the top layer of color is scraped away in places leaving a striped design. Add this essential tool to your bakery supply cabinet and delight your customers with a perfectly designed cake.
