Bow Tutorial

January 15, 2012 / Jessica / Cakes, Jessica Harris Cakes, Tutorials / 13 Comments
I love this little bow! It’s SO simple to make and simple in its style. All you need is a little template and a little modeling chocolate and you can make your own!!

Here’s what you need:
When using a small amount of modeling chocolate, I like to roll it out on wax paper. It keeps me from having to use crisco or cornstarch.



And you’re done! I love how little it is!

Have fun playing with the size. Copy that template and size it for whatever cake you need. Just use a little melted chocolate on the back of the bow to attach it to a cake.

Enjoy!

    cute! and easy! I think I’ll be using this when I make a Hello Kitty cake this week.
    Question: will this work as well using fondant?

    Michelle: Stay tuned for a how-to on that cake. Within the next week or two I’ll have it up. I did a step by step tutorial but am missing the final picture…so, I’m re-making it and will post it SOON!

    Love this bow. Can I make it large? By large I mean 5 inches long and 2.5 inches wide?

      Just print and scale the pattern accordingly. You’ll need to use some rolled up paper towels for support until the bow dries.

      When you go to print it, just increase the size on your printer or make a copy of it 150%-200% bigger. Blessings!
