Sugar decorations Halloween creepy, 8 pieces

Eight unusual Halloween motifs – cheerfully spooky and instantly eye-catching

Halloween is all about the details – and this set surprises with eight unusual, cheerfully spooky sugar figures you wouldn't expect. The Halloween Sugar decoration Spooky contains 2 spooky ice creams, 2 witches' cauldrons, 2 ghost faces and 2 Gingerbread men with skeleton details – motifs that go beyond the classic pumpkins and bats and give any Halloween decoration its own playful touch. Each figure is intricately designed, instantly recognisable and contributes in its own way to the overall spooky picture – eerie, colourful and unmistakably Halloween. The figures are made from royal icing – a mixture of sugar and egg powder that is piped in multiple layers and fully hardened. The result is dimensionally stable, slightly crispy figures that reliably hold their shape and can be placed cleanly and without damage onto baked goods. Eight figures per pack – enough for one large cake, eight cupcakes as individual toppers, or a combination of both.

The figures are ready to use straight away – no modelling, no drying, no preparation required. Simply take them out of the packaging and place them directly onto Buttercream, Ganache, Cake icing, apricot glaze or icing – on these surfaces the figures stand firmly and adhere without any aids. On smooth Fondant it is advisable to secure the underside of the figure with a small dot of melted chocolate – this keeps the figure safely in place even during transport. On cupcakes, one figure works perfectly as an individual topper – a ghost face, a witches' cauldron, a spooky ice cream or a Gingerbread man with skeleton details turns each cupcake into a little Halloween masterpiece. On a cake, the figures can be arranged freely – flat on the surface, upright along the edge or lightly pressed into the Buttercream for a varied, spooky overall look. Since the set contains eight different motifs, a varied Halloween tableau automatically takes shape on the festive table – no motif is repeated, every figure a focal point in its own right. On brownies or biscuits too, the figures instantly add a delightfully eerie accent – simply place them on the still-moist icing or a dot of Buttercream.

Royal icing is very sensitive to moisture – if exposed to too much dampness, the decoration softens and the figures lose their shape. On very moist creams such as freshly whipped cream, mascarpone or quark, place the figures only shortly before serving. On Buttercream, Fondant, Cake icing, icing or Ganache they can be placed a little earlier without any problem, as these surfaces release less moisture. If the baked goods are stored in the fridge, keep the time there as short as possible – the humid air in the fridge can also soften the decoration over time. Do not store in damp rooms or near steam. Store any leftover figures in a dry, cool and dark place at 12–20°C – never in the fridge, as the moisture will immediately soften the decoration and the figures will lose their shape. Best stored in the original packaging until used.

Eight little figures – and the spookiest night of the year is on the table. Because when the witches' cauldron bubbles, the ghost face grins and the Gingerbread man with skeleton details stands on the cake, Halloween has truly arrived – eerie, cheerful and unforgettable. Spookily good. Happy Halloween!
