Graduation, regardless of whether from pre-school or college, holds special meaning to the graduate and his or her family and friends. Bakeries add to the achievement by offering custome made cakes to help make the celebration a success. Since the normal graduation time of year falls in the spring, together with plentiful bridal showers, weddings and anniversaries, this tends to be a awfully busy time for decorators and bakeries. It is extremely crucial that you plan ahead because of this demanding time. The most popular decoration that we sell is the graduation caps, from Bakery Crafts .

It is best to provide 4 to six standard graduation styles for patrons throughout the busiest weeks of this time of year. Provide a beautiful display with the cakes for customers to view. Draft the order blanks so clerks can note the design chosen and the correct colors and dedication. Cake creations may include a computer generated school emblem or photo on Edible Image , plastic caps, plaques, picks and diplomas, or icing arrangements. The next graduation designs are ideas for your display.

Dessert Size: 2-in. by 4-in. slices
1/4 sheet serves 12
1/2 sheet serves 24

full sheet serves 96

Pipe on a white shell border around the middle segment, top and bottom edges using star tip No. 20. Add some multicolored sugar pieces as decoration.

Hint: Make use of wafer paper, to generate a diploma - brown edges either with paste color or airbrush spray. Next, hold cautiously over steam and soften edges into a curl. Write on with Cake Decorating Pens, Position on cake.
