We decorate gingerbread cookies, cookies

[Larissa u]

And I'm vintage ......,

Larissa u, ahhhh! I love your vintage, your taste, your style and yourself !!!!

Vei, Liz, thank you very much! How kind you are !!
My huge problem is photography !!
And lighting !! We have the sun once a month! Clouds and dark! I have to do it in the evening, when artificial, otherwise I won't take a picture of a single cookie until summer. And, of course, all beauty is lost ...
Well, at least so ...

I will faint and lie down there ... meditate

move over, I'll lie next to Larissa, very beautiful gingerbread!

Eh, and nothing, sho I've been here for several days. There are no more lying places!)))

Larissa, well, you choose the mode on the camera - White setting - incandescent lamp?
I love your photos and gingerbread, they are so individual !!!

fomca, Light, no camera at all !!
I only take pictures of iPad!

Larissa U, Larissa, a couple of weeks ago, I read the whole Temko in a few days. And I remember your posts, when you didn’t have attachments yet, but decorated from a bag with a cut corner. How I bought the attachments and how I said: That's another matter entirely. And your works became more and more beautiful from time to time. It has passed before my eyes in a few days, so the result for today is simply amazing! And this vintage is another confirmation of this! Thank you for the beauty and for an example of how hard work can achieve any heights.
By the way, about Lizonka Vei at the very beginning I read how she wrote that she was very interested in the gingerbread business and would like to do it seriously. And now she always has such masterpieces that I immediately thought: But why can't I do this, or at least look similar?
And at Sahara for me everything is surprising, however, I did not read in Temka about the beginning of her journey, she came to us as a ready-made professional.
This is all I mean, that newbies should not give up if something does not work out there once or twice. Not the gods burn pots. Let's learn!

Mona1, Tan, I read, but it seems to me that this is not about me at all! I can't do anything, I think!
Thanks, of course, anyway !! And toss it, of course not! Nobody! this is such a meditation !!!

Larissa u, Larissa, vintage gingerbread is SOMETHING !!!! I always stare at them, very beautiful and stylish and your photos are one of the best!

Sahara, oh, Lera, thank you!
girls want to laugh ??
I recently had a hospital stay here, for about two weeks (the first thought is to bake it! And do icing !! How much free time will be !!
It will be possible to paint !!! and nobody bothers !!! And the food is brought in and the dirty plates are taken away !!)
The husband said. No, I didn't say, I just twisted it at my temple!

Larissa, what hospitals? Judging by the changes on the avatar, you are just getting younger before our eyes!

Aaaa Lorik, I am eating with pleasure! I also want to!!! I love all that very much !!!!

come on there .. this one ... don't joke like that! it's better to do decorating at home

nooo, girls, prepare more places and lying, but more! Larisa has already mastered cocoa painting !! show us Larissa !!!!

DaNiSa, Alain, and there is a topic, I have already shown there

Larissa, and you show me here too! but not everyone knows about those Temko, especially newcomers, let them gasp here, it won't be superfluous !!!

[My cookies]

I made cookies today ... according to a recipe from Vei Mezeshkalach ... I liked them soooo, and my children, that I decided to bake them! ... but covered them with mastic ... since I didn't succumb to icing ... but experiment there was no time ... and with the inscription it was a little confusing ...there should have been a print on sugar paper, but where I order the girl left for another city before the 16th, and I needed the 9th ... so I had to make a stencil (my husband cut it out), and then painted it with a gel dye with a sponge ... not very neat! but this is the best that I could already do ... some cookies were redone several times, because for some reason the inscription blurred ... I did not understand why ... maybe a lot of paint turned out ...
Thank you very much to the girls for their help in working with icing, although I still have not succeeded, but I will try and learn !!! I also wanted to say thanks to Natasha Nansy for her help with the inscription ... she suggested that I could paint it by hand with a sponge ... otherwise I didn't even know how to get out! Thank you very much to all of you !!!!
My cookies, order for 30pcs.



The cookies turned out to be big ... Dimensions 10.5cm by 6.5cm ... could have been made 1cm smaller, they would have fit better in the bag, otherwise I could hardly have tied the ribbon!

Lyaila, in the general mass, nothing of the kind is visible. All are good!

Laila, in the general mass, nothing of the kind is visible. All are good!

Thank you very much ... yeah ... in the total mass it seems like everything is merging .. and everything seems to be fine ... but where closer 3 cookies I took a closer look ... there are visible irregularities in the letters .. and on the oval strip ..., but I hope the customers will not notice anything of this ... and for the future I will study ...

ZeZeDo not invent Laila, everything turned out great! Very neat and okay, no flaws are visible, beautiful gingerbread cookies, customers will be very satisfied, you'll see!

ZeZe, Lyaila, you have got very neat gingerbread! Nothing is noticeable there, I did not see any blurring of paint, everything is fine!

Thank you so much... . oooh, I hope ... they haven't answered anything yet ... with the next cookies you have to try to be perfect - so as not to worry yourself! to really like it! Natasha, thank you very much ... yes I did the blurry ones ... in the morning, before giving up ... I did it at night ... or rather at night .. until 4 in the morning ... I went to bed with peace of mind ... I get up in the morning ... and there the letters blurred a few straight lines .. became bold ... oh .. I almost had a blow ... but I pulled myself together, rolled the mastic, re-painted with a sponge through a stencil ... peeled off the old mastic from the cookies and closed up new ones ... it turns out you can get a little wet with a paper napkin - and the paint no longer smudges ... I immediately packed it, and for delivery! but all the same, some letters were a little uneven, and the stripes came out a little crooked ... the first time I did this ... but I hope the customers did not see anything ...

great cookies! white + red = winning color combination

thanks, Alena!

Lyaila, what a fine fellow! And husband! It’s necessary to cut out every letter!

Thank you very much ... yes, in comparison with the work of our craftswomen .. I have a primitive of the level of a garden nursery ...
Vika, thank you very much ... I'll pass it on to my husband! : a-kiss: Thanks a lot !! yeah, without him I would not be able to cut this ...

[Ilona]

Ilona, Elon, and all the girls who have not seen it yet, come here! There it is !!
https://mcooker-enm.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=405952.0

yeah, there it is! I saw, and this can be repeated only to those who can draw

Oh yeah! Nowadays this is fashionable! My friend is fond of various painting on gingerbread! only he does not come to our HP ...

[Larissa u]

Painting on mastic with cocoa

Larissa! I can't get away from the vintage, and here's a hare!
Sahara, Lera! How much patience you have, baskets are straight - ah!

Larissa u, I don't even know what to praise first of all))) Your new avatar or your creations?
You are just an electric broom and a great young fellow! While everyone here gasps and faints, you've already ripped so many gingerbread cookies!
All-all handsome, and a hare, and a bear, and a lion! Respect!
You are blooming in the photo, beauty! What other hospital, huh? Create at home!

Larissa, how do you draw cocoa? Do you dilute with water or what? And then it dries up does not fall off? I'll probably lie down too ... no ...I'd better roll my jaw!

Ilona, I take a plate and put it down so crooked, I have vodka below. And at the top is cocoa. And I mix cocoa into vodka. I spread it on a plate, where there is more, where less, you start when, you will immediately understand.
And I already made a rose, and even made a landscape (thanks to Tanyusha for this idea, well, so interesting !!)

oh, very useful information! thank you, Larissa! I would definitely drink a glass in one

Larissa u, I also paint dry so I can do it! True, I got along with some water.
Lorik, come on there with the hospital, sort it out quickly, you can't please the hospital walls with your presence. The gingerbread cookies will be waiting for you at home, they will be bored!

Ilonauntil I go to bed !! I found a job, I go out on Monday. The doctor promised to support with medication until the summer, and then I'll take a vacation, bake gingerbread - and go ahead for the operation!

[GenyaF]

It's so cool how many wonderful gingerbreads were shown, you give the gingerbread to the masses!
GenyaF, Zhenya, beauty, festive mood!
Ilona, Ilona, ​​the houses are wonderful! The sheep are so mischievous, they are all different. I noticed your big ones back in OK and plagiarized, do you mind?
Marina22, I really liked the gingerbread, they look rich and soundly.
salomeya29, Anastasia, beautiful bells. Most of all I liked with the picture, very New Year's!
SaharaLera, I am delighted with your works, so diverse, neat, bright. I wish you dimensionless days, so that there is enough time for gingerbread, for family, and for rest.
Karry79, Katerina, good house, good-quality, well done son, helper is growing!
ZeZe, Lyaila, although she said a lot, but the gingerbreads look dignified, simple and neat, also a bow, well done, husband too.
Larissa u, Larisa, you surprise and surprise everything, gingerbread in different techniques, some more beautiful than others! Well done, perpetual motion machine!

[Elya_lug]

I'll show you my gingerbread. I baked the Hungarian mezeshkalach for the second time, but decided to make the gingerbreads larger, so that it would be more convenient to draw and give a big one more pleasantly. She gave away almost everything for the New Year and Christmas, some of them lie waiting for their owners, have not yet reached them. My husband grumbled at me: "There are gingerbreads all around, but there is nothing to eat."))) Sheep looked at Ilona, ​​for which she thanks a lot, the rest is saved from the Internet, well, where the hands turned. I read what attachments you use, I probably do it wrong, but I have Korean 0 and 00, and I did the contour and draw with them.

just like mine
Ale, very beautiful gingerbread! Sheep are great, generally cool characters - they always turn out cute
I also have Korean nozzles, I use 000 and 00

Elya_lug, Elya, pretty ones! Socks fascinated!

What am I going against that? Take it to your health! Moreover, the drawing for them, I also did not invent myself What I liked and turned into a gingerbread!
The socks are really cute - they are funny)) Pleased! And the Christmas trees too.

The lambs are cool! cool socks ... so narrow ... striped! The beauty!

Elya_lug, Ale, the sheep are cool! I must also put on their hats

I also found MK on gingerbread on 🔗

[Larissa u]

Larissa u, Wonderful vintage !!! I want it for a long time, I like it very much, but for some reason I can't feel it.
ZeZe, such gingerbread cookies are neat, I don't see any flaws at all. What a fine husband!

Painting on mastic with cocoa

once again I regret that I did not study at an artist
Elya_lug, Good gingerbread !!! I also use Atekov's nozzles, but for some reason, without nozzles, just out of a bag, I can draw lines better. I want to completely abandon them. The only thing it stops is when you do the filling, change the nozzle to another, larger one, and then you work. It's just that with a bag without a nozzle, this will not work, you need to fill a separate one for filling)))

I also found MK for gingerbread

need to learn how to make roses

[Victoria]

I'm already here with "Valentine's" gingerbread)))
This set has been screwed up with an airbrush. I haven't really learned how to use it yet.


These will fly to a friend in NY

Well, the rest ...

These are very little ones.

I have already shown these, I just wanted to boast of boxes))))

Victoria, do not fig yourself how you dashingly started in February !!! Well done!!! I like it so much! They are all neat, and where is your constipation? And you make the boxes yourself? But as? This is my sore subject - gingerbread boxes. It is not clear what to give them away ... I haven’t found boxes to buy yet. Sitting and doing, of course, is a separate heroism.

Victoria, but I like everything! I already looked at your albums on the social network, took them into the bookmarks! I will come back! ... for samples, if you don't mind))))

Ilona, Thank you! Boxes are really heroism))) But sometimes they are really needed)) It's expensive to buy, and sometimes they are disappointing in quality. Making them is easy, just dreary without any adaptations. Yesterday I talked to my cousin, he is engaged in printing in Omsk. I showed my abs on Skype yesterday. He orders felling and stamped boxes, bonbonnieres, etc.))) Here, I want to go on exploration, look. Can buy such a press, and along the way produce boxes
I will lay out MK, according to which I made boxes.
🔗 - here I watched how the window was made, I took the film more tightly, packaging.
🔗 - there are double walls, with single flimsy ones, very for gingerbread. Paper, density 300 g / m2
And these are fast and stylish 🔗 I think I've already posted links here?)))

where is your problem?

I wanted to shade along the edge, but it turned out that I smeared the whole gingerbread))) White they looked better))
fomca, Sveta

aelita1702, Vika, beautiful gingerbread! Lips are straight, like real, sweet, flirtatious, I want to kiss)))
Hearts are superb, I especially liked the ones with wings and double hearts! How many centimeters have you had with wings? I have such a tiny 3-4 cm, I don't even know how it will look.
Gingerbread cookies in boxes look very good, for a lot)))

Girls, and who knows how roses are like in the photo Babovka, to make of icing? I tried it from protein cream, so it turns out, but from icing some kind of garbage turns out (((

Sahara, Lera, thank you! With wings about 7x3, and double ones are even less than 5x2.5. Convenient for symbolic gifts instead of useless valentine cards

Vika, thanks! Another question for you, do you fill flowers with a toothpick, or do you make stains with a thin tip and darker icing? I looked at MK YouTube, but I get such a daub, I did this - I dripped a drop lighter, then made a curl (comma) with a thin tip in a dark color, and then tried to spread this line with a toothpick, maybe I pick this flower too much, but we need certain directional movements?

aelita1702, Victoria, gingerbread cookies are just lovely !!! And I am delighted with the boxes!
How??
I saw everything, thanks! Boxes are a really sore subject !!

aelita1702, I am in a fall, very beautiful gingerbread, just class!

Nothing is noticeable. And the size of the set? And I just ordered such a set, height 10cm
You have got beautiful gingerbreads!

the height of the letter is 11 cm. But they do not seem huge, because they are probably narrow. But the alphabet ordered is simply huge))))

Vika, you have these gingerbreads ... I don't see any screwed-up gingerbreads ... they are shaded perfectly! great idea!!!! and your boxes are generally cool! here you are, you are already preparing for the February holidays! thanks for the reference to the boxes ... everything seems to be clear ... we must try!

aelita1702Where do you get the cardboard? If in a bookstore, then the boxes will turn out to be expensive again, and it is difficult with sizes, there is no big thing ...

Ilona, I take cardboard in stationery stores, A1, A0 format. And in Russia there is a company called Bereg, they sell designer paper, and I make these boxes out of their cardboard. It is inexpensive if you do it for yourself. In general, in printing houses you can ask around, maybe where microcorrugated cardboard can be found.

[Elya_lug]

Elya_lug, Elichka, very elegant gingerbread! Angels are lovely! I'll take a note, your decor of their platys!

Babovkais this your gingerbread? Can I show one at a time?

[Sahara]

Sahara, Lera, I made this video

and recently, this one looked


I make divorces with a needle, just tudy-syudy in a circle. You look at the daub, but it seems like nothing will dry out))) I drip first the main color, then I drip a little light and use a needle)))

Vika, thanks! So you drip dark at first, and dilute with light - I'll try this way.
I tried to repeat the first video, it did not work ((On the second, she just spreads a drop with the background. I'm going to train. Thanks again!

aelita1702, Victoria, thanks for the interesting video

[Larissa u]

And I master all the cocoa!

Larissa u, Larissa, amazed! You are an artist with us! Is the icing smooth on the gingerbread? Real drifts turned out!

yeah yeah .... I haven't mastered icing here yet ... but here the craftswomen are already doing this .... when will I catch up with you .... where are the mice falling into a swoon ... to fall with them! Larissa great job! now I'll look into Temka ... I'll still pooha and poahay there ...

Larissa, I am amazed ... this is beauty !!! someone else claims that she never knew how to draw ... awesome !!! even the first bear was already quite recognizable! and the lion too! and the bunny vaschsche handsome! and then there's the landscape ... awesome beautiful!

Larissa u, Lorik, and what recipe are you making gingerbread? You have them as dark as mine. I use Gerd's recipe more often. Mine really like it.

Ilona, Ilon, made a bunch of dough according to Nadia's recipe (carambole), and I use it, I just need a sea of ​​cocoa there, but it tastes like chocolate! And I like the color for painting

I want to try that too. Is it here or in the Internet to look for?

[Lera]

Lera, I understand correctly that the photo that you put above is not your photo? If so, then we cannot display other people's photos through the gallery of the bread machine. Only your own !!
This is so for the future. The forum administrator has to constantly clean our bread maker of other people's photos. This is the time that we all have very little.
Girls, be careful !!!
Lera, and you insert these photos through another resource. This is not prohibited.

And that's okay. We all learn.

[Tanya]

I have another gingerbread.
I already wrote that for the first casket I tried to bake the wall three times.
The first attempt was to bake from two halves by placing the box on its side and placing the dough on top of it.
Failed. Since the dough is not fixed on the side by anything, then when heated, the dough slid and baked in an indefinite heap near the box.
I ate it with great pleasure. I really liked this gingerbread.
Second try, a long strip of dough that has been baked separately on a baking sheet and then, while warm, is placed inside the box and cooled.
I have already shown this box.
The third attempt was made following the example of Lencore. Remember she showed how she made little boxes. I cut out a few gingerbread cookies in the form of hearts without the middle. Then she connected them and got a wall.
So I did.
Here's what happened. True, I didn't have enough test for the lid.



The hearts seemed to be cut out all the same, but all three turned out to be different. I had to beat the protruding edges.

Luda, what a smart little box! Did you glue the gingerbreads for the walls with icing? It is a pity that there was not enough for the cover.
And individual hearts are super!

Tanya, Thank you!! Yes everything is correct. I glued individual hearts with icing.
The box didn't work. Let's assume that this is a sugar bowl!

HuskyHow long have I wanted to make a box! But I can't imagine that my parts won't break !! ??
People, beauty!

Yes, it’s not easy with boxes. I tried it in different ways that year. and it cracked and slipped away. It is better to either bend it hot or bake it on a convex surface, and then trim the excess that slightly increased during baking and slipped off while hot. My walls also broke when they were removed from the mold. This year I baked a box for a flower-shaped gingerbread house as you are a heart. It seems to be normal with the house, but if there is one box, then it is too small.
Beautiful hearts and a box! Sorry there is no cap

Lyudochka, what a beauty! even without a lid .. I really like it! and on top of the red covered this glaze from Vei looks very nice white on red! I made the box myself

very, well, very beautiful! what kind of dough? red on white is gorgeous!
but I can't even draw these droplets exactly, or rather, I start for health, but at the end of the line, what is going on

what kind of dough?

Alain, dough from Levitan. Recipe "Old Polish Gingerbread" I really like the dough, although it is more suitable for thick gingerbread in several layers. You can't pull me by the ears from such gingerbread. From the very last dough (I kept a little for myself), baked it in the size of 17X21 cm. Cut it into three parts and layered with jam. Well, how delicious. Therefore, there was not enough for the cover. I really wanted to eat the thick gingerbread.

and on top it was covered with red glaze from Vei

Aha !! Her dear. Moreover, I have small gingerbread from dough from lenkor with the addition of cocoa. Baked somewhere almost a year ago. Before the new year, I found them in a box. They also turned out to be soft.
So I used them. Nothing happened to them (and to me too. I tried, I know)
And of course, when coated with Liza's glaze, these gingerbread cookies turned out to be darker than the main box of "Old Polish gingerbread" dough. This dough is light.

Ludmila, and if the boxes are baked according to the Khlebnikova method. somewhere here the video was of her round house

year and perfectly preserved ?! if it is stored in a metal box and not decorated, did I understand correctly? icing probably won't last for a year, what do you think? and they don't give away dust?
I'll start the experiment! dough from Gerda

I am also now finishing up the one-year-old "freshness", the dough from Gerda. nothing happened to them. I kept it in a cardboard box. Some were decorated with icing, some were naked. DaNiSa, icing can be stored for years. Nothing will happen to him. He is afraid only of moisture and direct sunlight - it burns out. And that's all. Nui, of course, does not like being dropped into products with him or impudently touched, this is with regards to all sorts of airy details.

clear .. thanks for the answer!

Alain, they were first wrapped in foil and then already packed in a metal cookie box. Were not covered with icing. Just like the blanks lay. Rather, I forgot about them.
And I have ones that were covered with icing last year. I use them as Christmas tree decorations. Absolutely nothing happened to icing, as well as to the gingerbread themselves. I also had gingerbreads, each wrapped in foil and folded into an ordinary cardboard box. These gingerbread cookies have already become tough. But I have no doubt that if they are placed next to apple slices, they will regain their softness.
I have these last year's gingerbread on my improvised Christmas tree this year. (her daughter's tree was completely dry and we used it as a Christmas tree for gingerbread)

Before the last NG I was on a course on gingerbread. I kept my works in a cardboard box. So from them icing fell off from me. Just when I opened it to look again. I didn't eat gingerbread, they were hard. They lie further.

I made the box myself

Lyaila, I don’t make a box myself. I just collect it throughout the year, like a plushkin. I definitely leave it with the windows, I don't throw it away. You look and come in handy.

but I can't even draw these droplets exactly, or rather, I start for health, but at the end of the line, what is going on

Alyona, train on cats draw on the file. Although I think that they are not ideal for me either.
It all depends on the pressure of the hand on the cornet. First, keep your hand in one place and press until you get a drop of the desired diameter. Then we start moving with our hand, but at the same time the pressure on the cornet weakens. At the end, where the tail is, there is no more pressure, but we simply stretch the icing as if with the tip into a thin line.
I don’t know, SOMEONE UNDERSTOOD ANYTHING?

Lyudmila, and if the boxes are baked according to the Khlebnikova method. somewhere here the video was of her round house

Yeah, Lisa and I already talked about this. She also gave me such a hint. Need to think.

I hope I answered all the questions and didn't miss anyone else.

[Matanya]

Well, here I finally got to you ...
I'll show you a little of my gingerbread ... I took into account all the amendments ... and tried to the best of my ability and time ...

Tanya, super! Where have you been with boots before ?? We liked it very much! All the same, painted gingerbread is something that I always talked about!

Matanya, Tatiana, wow! What boots with pampons! It's there and the presents are already inside! The beauty!

Matanya, Tanya, beautiful gingerbread. The idea with boots is cool !!! Everything is so neat

Tanya, what a beauty! The boots turned out great! also with gifts inside ... Well done! tried ...

And the pampons on the sides are such round pieces cut out along with the boot?

Yes, Tanyush, everything was cut out together ...

Sister!!! At our pace, it's time to bake gingerbread with monkeys - for the next new year! ))

And everything is simple for me. I baked 15 gingerbread cookies (size 10cm) for the Old New Year for caroling children.

And there are also 15 pieces of white sheep and they probably will not be taken away, the client does not answer calls

but I like your gingerbread ... I didn't bother with the shape of the gingerbread ... I cut out the round ones and then drew on them !!! great idea .. lamb like it, cool hooves from beads turned out! and the snowmen are cool!

[Olga_Z]

Hello, I want to share with you my first gingerbread. I still have to work on them and work on them, but I have been reading you for a very long time and now I decided to show

Welcome, Olya! With the initiative !!! Look how much I mastered at once! Well done for taking it! It will be smoother every time! I liked the striped whales, funny!

Olga_Z, Olya, I also read this topic for a long time before showing up))) Welcome !!! It's very cozy here

aelita1702, Ilonathank you girls
I will train and read Temka further, it is very interesting

[Mona1]

Girls, I accidentally read here that the recipe for honey gingerbread is used to make roe. It is among the Pomor peoples such ritual gingerbread for Christmas. And not everyone ate them, they left a few pieces and they stood in a prominent place in the house all year round, protecting the family. And a year later they ate them. They lost neither aroma nor softness. Read who is interested.
🔗
So a year can be stored. There, by the way, at the end of the recipe a dough is given, very interesting - no eggs, but with water in the dough, no soda. Of course, only honey and spices are related to this dough with our gingerbread. But it's fun to try.

Mona1, Tanya, in general, the goats were made and are made with burnt, sometimes even with the addition of honey. A year later, no one ate the goats himself, but gave them to the cattle, which surprised me, but this was precisely because they did not taste very tasty. They were made of rye flour and kneaded coolly so that you could bake 3D figures of animals and the dough did not float, which is why the taste was not the best, and even more so after a year ... And yes, the goats are not just Pomor cakes, but gingerbreads 3D animals like Dulevo toys made of dough only. In general, this is not what Natasha Rusak is now baking, such gingerbread cookies have recently been baked, and since ancient times the goats were ugly)))

Well, it can, they baked ugly on purpose, so that they scared away evil spirits from housing.

Oh, girls, you are all so great! We've done so much! I am just delighted with Sahara baskets and vintage Larissa U gingerbreads. And Lyudochka Husky's heart-shaped box drives me crazy!

I’m skipping this Temko for now, because I have to finish a lot of scribbling for work. My colleagues gave me a boost. But I will certainly come back to you. I have ideas for Valentine's Day.

[Girls, I found such an awesome site, there is about gingerbread - well, all the secrets Here, I share:]

Girls, I found such an awesome site, there is about gingerbread - well, all the secrets Here, I share:
🔗

Girls, today I went to work after a long New Year's holidays.And the employee from the doorway immediately says to me that she started "gingerbread fall". I was at a loss for what to say to her, but she immediately continued. That my gingerbreads began to fall from the tree. I again did not understand anything, and she explains to me that they break off the ribbon and fall from the tree to the floor and they pick them up and eat. He says that they have become soft and very tasty! It dawned on me and I told her that it was probably damp in her apartment, she agreed, said that it was really damp. She asked, how do I know what is damp and then, in disbelief, she began to look at me. Well, then we talked and decided that the gingerbread still began to soften from the moisture of a living pine tree, she has a big one and she even pours some garbage on it so that it doesn't dry quickly. Here is such a gingerbread fall

[Girls, I accidentally wandered into a gingerbread site and disappeared. I share]

Girls, I accidentally wandered into a gingerbread site and disappeared. I share 🔗

WOW !!!!!!!!!! : girl_love: Elya !!!!!!!!! : girl_love: Only I already wanted to go to sleep, tomorrow I'll go to work

ledi, spaaaat! Gingerbread cookies will wait!)))

Damn ... And I wanted to knead the dough, but here such aoo

The dream is over! And what smooth gingerbread they have! I can't do that

because you bake herdino, not Hungarian dough, although I had a smooth herdino ...
and Aniko and I are friends))) and I also have her book

Lizka, you still forgot to show your tongue and twist your handles teasingly, so that we would all envy :)))
And I also get Gerdovskoe even, sometimes cellulite. But, Liza, yours can suddenly give out a large bubble on the front side with a bump, eprst. It's probably because of the parchment ...

did not quite understand this passage))) you get a cellulite mezeshkalach ???
there is not enough flour, do not roll it out on a baking sheet, dust the baking sheet evenly on which you bake and there will be no bubbles.

Elya_lug, Elya, thanks for the link! The beauty!

Lisa, in what language do you communicate with her?

And today I am impressed by this video To know more what they say there!
I want to be a seller of such a counter as in the beginning of the video!
It's a pity that I can't draw at all ... yesterday I also tried icing, twirling cornets, and decorating a couple of gingerbread cookies ... I like everything for the first time ... but I also study and learn ...

Gerdovskoe sometimes behaves this way (also from the same batch as the mezeshkalash, the same flour. Probably it was ridiculous, it's a pity I didn't remember the packaging). Mezeshkalash mischief differently - with a large bubble on the floor of a gingerbread)) I'll try to bake on a baking sheet.

mine too, but I bake without parchment

I think yes, not enough flour, I baked. it could not be transferred to the baking sheet. Stretched out. But I didn't want to deviate from the recipe. When baking the scraps, the dough is already smoother. I'll go to your Temko I'll take pictures

go to the topic of mezeshkalach, so as not to flood here, we will do a debriefing there. there should be no bubbles, on the contrary, this is the easiest dough to work with.

Lizka, you are a treasure!

Well, how can you sleep now ?! I've been looking at everything for several hours ... completely gone

[annnushka27]

annnushka27, we communicate with Aniko in English.
I will insert your link into the video format:


Pay attention to the color of the dough and baked goods when the trays are removed from the oven. Ready-made gingerbread cookies are light, not fried or ruddy. By the way, they all have mostly wood-burning stoves, which at one time made a very strong impression on me.
and also note that when, at the beginning of the video, the rolling of the dough is shown, there is a huge layer of soft thick dough on a table well dusty with flour. She rolled this dough and lifted her hand under the dough, checks that nothing sticks anywhere, then she cuts it out and calmly puts it on a baking sheet. The cut out mold is in flour, therefore it will not stick, not swell, but will rise evenly.
Ilona, also look that this auntie has very thick gingerbread cookies, I roll out the dough of this thickness for gingerbreads from 25 cm in size or if I was immediately asked to bake thick gingerbread.

[there is such an amazing gingerbread cult in Hungary! And they don't have gingerbread cookies, but honey bread! Their bakeries are for many years, passed from generation to generation, so much beauty and deliciousness are baked and sold. But the most important thing is that people there love it, buy and order. At weddings there will be gingerbread cookies, but what about us ??? If you put a compliment on the cake, then yes]

And today I am impressed by this video To know more what they say there!

I watched this video once, but Varga Zhuzhanna does not give out secrets))) says that the dough is kneaded in the dough in the evening, kneaded again in the morning, the dough is dense enough, uses only cinnamon and cloves from spices, emphasizes that flour must be of the highest quality; in addition to flour and spices, the dough contains honey, sugar (not powder), eggs (it is not clear what fat content is supposed to be there). For icing, he uses only fresh proteins and powder, does not add lemon juice. Gingerbread is soft, they are stored for a long time at 18 degrees, in a colder place they become hard, in a warm place they soften, in principle, these are the properties of honey. The gingerbread cookies are baked in wood-burning ovens, well, Lisa has already talked about this.
I tried to find her recipe on the Internet - it's useless)))

But I found many interesting Madyar gingerbread recipes, including immediately soft and ready-to-bake, maybe there will be time - I will make a separate topic of Madyar gingerbread, of course, if the girls are interesting to you.

of course interesting, you ask! I have been studying and watching them for a year! In my opinion, they are the best, here's another Pardubitsky I'll try and compare, I'll decide)))

At weddings there will be gingerbread cookies, but what about us ??? If you put a compliment on the cake, then yes(((

Vei, Lisa, I agree with you. Still, Russian gingerbread and Madyar mezeshkalach have different prehistories.
In Transcarpathia, the tradition of giving away gingerbread for a wedding has always been, one big personalized gingerbread was made for the newlyweds, which was then stored for a long time, and small gingerbreads were given away to guests and children from the surrounding area, but later this tradition was supplanted by all kinds of cakes, but now they are becoming very relevant again, I myself handed out gingerbread cookies to the children at my wedding. I think, in fact, the demand for gingerbread has not fallen, most likely the craftswomen have died out))) My grandmother was engaged in mezeshkolachi, I remember her double hearts and large dolls with mirrors, she also made horses and hussars, and patsurki are yellow-pink small circles, strung on a thread along with a small cross, it turned out like church beads - rosary, and also a yo-yo with an elastic band and colored lollipops, in general, a lot of things were done and sold on church holidays, I often helped her and went with her on holidays, but then I was 6-7 years old and of course I did not delve into technology. Now I started to do this, but there is no one to ask. By the way, my great-grandmother had a confectionery factory in Debrecen.

yes, these countries generally have different prehistories ... Russian gingerbread cookies are different and were decorated differently, but for too many years we did not have small enterprises and bakeries, only large productions with a mass and soulless product. And weddings are different, okay, that's a separate topic.

Girls, communicate, very interesting!))

I've read a lot yesterday about the correct gingerbread dough, it turns out, it is correct to divide it into 2 stages. The first is to brew a part of the flour with heated honey (with sugar, sometimes water, oil) at 70-75 degrees, and then nothing is added until this clot cools down to room temperature - up to 25-27 degrees, only then the rest of the mixed flour is added with baking powder (or if the dough is only honey, or honey with a small amount of sugar, then sour cream is put in, and baking powder and soda are not), softened butter, eggs. And then the dough is kneaded by the second stage. So Zsuzhanna probably brews in the evening, and in the morning after cooling down, then kneads with the rest of the ingredients. I found a similar recipe on our forum.

[Vei]

Vei, Lisa, well, wow, you thoroughly approach the gingerbread!
annnushka27, Anya, not at all.
Sahara, Lera, your roots are amazing! Revive traditions, it's so cool. There is no such thing in our area.
DaNiSaAlena, have you come to your senses?
I also noticed what huge gingerbread they make, of course, there is a place where to turn around. And I liked how they lay out large figures from small gingerbreads, or make boxes, or braids on top of a gingerbread ... And how many people are on the courses.

not a fig came, kanesh ... just ran and kneaded the dough

[How to transfer a blank from icing from a file to a gingerbread]

How to transfer a blank from icing from a file to a gingerbread
And today I have such gingerbread cookies For the wedding anniversary they ordered

Nansy, Natasha, well, your gingerbread cookies were incomparable before, but each time I admire more and more! What a talented, clever girl you are! And all by herself, with her mind and work! ...

Nansy, the beauty! wedding adorable!

Girls, Lisa, Alena, thank you very much! Well, so nice, well, vaaaaschee By the way, I made babies in strollers on a file, and then glued them onto a ready-made gingerbread, very convenient, thanks again to Lera for suggesting this method!

Nansy, Can you describe in more detail how to transfer to the finished gingerbread from a file later, on what glaze, does it fit evenly, and the whole drawing or individual details? Today I want to try.

lesunya, here you go... and also look here push
Well, let's listen to Natasha how she does

I did this: I made babies with contours on the file, when they dried up I took it off the file (I put the file on the edge of the table and along the edge of the table I lower the file down, holding the icing element with my hand, only everything must be done very carefully), on the back I smeared it with icing (thick, which for contour) and glued it onto the already prepared gingerbread (that is, the carriage had all the fill on the gingerbread and it dried well). It lay down evenly, it looks good live, because the baby seems to be convex

Natasha, you have great gingerbread !!! so clear .. at first I just saw the gingerbread and thought that it was someone from the Internet laid out for ideas ... but it turns out it's your gingerbread ... I'm just fainted! Well done! you are already so cool! and the lines are straight, and smooth, and bright, colorful! straight sapsem pro already !!! You will take me as a student !!!
where for the bride and groom - it turned out sooo gently! Good girl!

I'll take it! :))))) True, I'm still a teacher :)))) Thank you very much, Lyaylechka!

oh, by the way, what size are you gingerbread cookies with, with strollers?

about 11 cm

Thank you all for your prompt response, I'm running to try)))

[Nansy]

But I made this one as a compliment to a large wedding order.The color in the photo is shamelessly distorted, in fact, the gingerbread is covered with red-brown Hungarian glaze

Natasha, from your cutwork I am a bastard, I love lace in itself just like that, and even on gingerbread everything is to portray and come up with - bravo !!!

Natasha, you have great gingerbread !!!
and the big gingerbread is so beautiful! such thin lines, straight! and the surface is so cool!

Nansy, Natasha, even the distorted color does not spoil the picture! the beauty!

girls, thanks a lot. so nice!

Nansy, Natasha, your cutwork style gingerbread is simply mesmerizing. Bravo, bravo, bravo !!

Husky, Lyudochka, thank you very much! Oh, I already blushed

Nansy, Natasha, the compliment is simply gorgeous !!! Even the distorted color I like)))) The inscription is so beautiful, I can't do that. I still can't try Richelieu, there is no time. I also want glaze and embroidery)))

[DaNiSa]

everyone is already spreading it on the wedding and Valentine's Day, and the current New Year's and I finally got to the computer
dough from Gerda, gingerbread size 14x10 and 10x8, cut by hand

DaNiSa, Alyonka! you have such funny sheep and snowmen, each has its own character, it's just super! Now I looked at and laughed, because they charge positively, just like living characters!

Vei, Liza! Thank you!

Oh, Alena, what beauties, lovely.

DaNiSa, Alenka, what cute, super! Goats with twisted horns are just class! And everyone else is very healthy!

Mona1, Nansy, Thank you! : girl_dance: very nice! otherwise I saw enough of yours and already started to complex

ooo, and here I brought my cookies ... and you just made some little lambs .. ahh, well, there are still snowmen ... The lambs are cool, they are also of different colors and breeds! The very first picture looks cool ... dad is argali, mom is a sheep and a little lamb !!! and gave it as a family
Well done! everywhere in time! and cool cookies! I like! but I never did it anymore ... I even lost my inspiration along the way ... otherwise the dough is in the refrigerator ... and waiting in the wings ...

thank you Lyaila! her, gave dad and mom a current, because the enta family hasn't got a lamb! so they don’t eat them, but they hang on the wall

DaNiSa,Alyona, I like all your gingerbreads !! Very beautiful sheep and lambs !! I like the drawing. In the big photo, tell me how you did the drawing. It seems that it is dotted along the contour of the drawing. This is true?

thank you, Luda! very nice! I first made the drawing as usual, in stripes, and then it became boring for me to do that and on each strip I put dots in a row and immediately it became somehow more fun to look, so, yes, it turned out to be a dotted drawing.

DaNiSa, Alena, little lambs !!! Did you cut it by hand? And yet, tell me where you get the transparent bags? Where, in which departments to look for them? I can't find it in Pavlodar. I bought a soldering iron with a sharp sting, I'm doing it myself, I'm already bored.

thanks, Vika! I cut out manually, first printed it out on plain paper of different sizes, and then cut it out with a knife: crazy: I immediately began to dream about cutting down the bags I take at the flea market in the department where all sorts of bags are sold in rolls, and every little thing, well, there are such as strainers, napkins and other ... It was Lyaila who advised me, at first I also racked my head, well, where to pack?
what are you doing with a soldering iron ?!

soldering packages)))))

And you can also ask around for bags in shops for florists, I buy in my store

and here in this store, their eyes bulged and they say - why do we need this ?! as if I offer them to buy it, but I don't want to buy from them

in Pavlodar, probably the same story (((

Girls, look for a polypropylene bag (or BOPP bag) in online stores, or in general it is better to contact manufacturers, they often have small sizes in stock and you can buy a small batch.
I order directly at the factory, take from them in packages of different sizes, there are 100 pieces each and their price is very good.
Maybe you have something like that there?
Where I take it, delivery is only in Ukraine and Moldova ((
If anyone from Ukraine needs coordinates, I'll write.

yes it, I already and so happy))) found out where this is for sale. and even close to us, and in general, almost nothing else is needed

[bearbear]

I finally tried making gingerbread too. Oh and addictive !!!!!! I don't know about you, but compared to cakes, this is just relaxation for me! Here are my firstborns

bearbear, pretty gingerbread! Yes, this business is delaying, in December I put on myself to the point of nausea, it seemed that I didn’t want more, but now it pulls again))

for me too relax !! only when no one distracts me: girl_haha: wonderful mittens !! and I would also write from which test I made, generally wonderful

bearbear,go ahead, uuuuu how many gingerbread !! I like the drawing. I still will not dare to do this.

[Vei]

Girls, I accidentally wandered into a gingerbread site and disappeared

Thanks for the site !!! When to work? All ideas are already mixed in my head))))
Vei, SaharaHow much do you know? Very interesting! I want to combine the stories of different gingerbread cookies and learn. Then, when I decide on MK I will be clever
DaNiSa, Alena, can you somehow highlight the links about the history of gingerbread?
I then decided to conduct an experiment with the Lenkor dough))) I always did not like grains of sugar. All the ingredients are according to the recipe, but I decided to burn the sugar. The dough turned out so beautiful. So, I'm baking ... And the dough, like the worst cellulite, looks at me from the oven. In a hole, in a fold And I have urgent and interesting orders ... What to do? I ran to the store for the night looking for oil, I’m standing there buying, I’m thinking about the dough myself and suddenly kaaak knocks me)))) I put a double portion of butter in this recipe, and so there’s a lot of butter, and I’m also a double one))))) do a double portion at once.
Experienced gingerbread cookies, tell me, is it because of the oil, not because of the burnt?

Vika, and I never have any grains of sugar, I make all the gingerbread cookies according to Lenkor's recipe, maybe you have some kind of sugar that is hardly soluble? Or have you tried it with different sugar? With mahanula oil, of course, most likely because of it you have problems. An interesting thought about burnt, you should also try it, but burnt does not interrupt the smell of spices?

I will definitely highlight everything! and I will link to them at the beginning of the topic! when it comes to them

Natasha, they are not felt when eaten))) It's just that the dough is not uniform in texture, but I want it to be like a dumpling dough
Yesterday I didn’t try it with burnt, there’s no time, and it’s scary already. But next time be sure))) The taste of spices did not interrupt

So I don't even feel them in the dough, the dough is homogeneous, but I really have very, very fine sugar

[aelita1702]

I have new gingerbread
I really like these))) I am not a master of details, I could have finished it. But they are gone. I tried it)) Who cares, I found the idea on Pinterest 🔗 This is my page, but there are so many ideas. It is very convenient, register, enter cookies or gingerbread into the search, save it on your board. Conveniently. And then my ideas are scattered on different computers, I'm always looking. And here in one place. And in general, if you see a beautiful gingerbread on any resource, with a slight movement of your hand you can save it to your Pinterest without even opening it. This is me for information, for those who are not yet in the know)))
In general, I found a cameo stencil there, and from this photo I went to MK. There the photos immediately contain a link to the resource from where they were saved.
MK, although everything is clear without it 🔗



Well, the letters)) You always think how to decorate them

aelita1702, Vika! Or Vita? Good gingerbread! I can't keep up with you: girl_haha: And I just baked hearts. I also registered on this site, but I can't navigate there

what cool letters! very nice! take note!

thanks girls!

aelita1702, Victoria, very high quality fill. I can't do that. How do you cut letters? Do you have cut shapes? Or do you cut it out by hand? And what size are they?

Luda, I ordered felling from Lyubimova Anna. They are huge))) As for the fill, it is ideal on small surfaces, but on large surfaces I always suffer. All I want to go to the MK to the guru to see how large areas are flooded. I just tried to spread it with a spoon, but something turns out unevenly.

[NataST]

Girls, good night! The inspiration visited me at night looking. My daughter has been worried since the new year that all the beautifully decorated gingerbreads have passed by her, all as a gift. So I decided to make her a personal gingerbread. At the same time I train in a new technique - cocoa painting. Really addictive Well, since the daughter is a fan of horses, ponies, unicorns - the choice of character is obvious!

NataST, Natasha, are you an artist? Lovely unicorns!

ledi, Thank you. No, I'm not an artist at all, but I've been good at copying from someone else's pictures since childhood.

NataST, Natasha, in childhood it also worked out, but now ... it doesn't work. Did you outline the outline or immediately?

I drew right away, opened the picture on the tablet and back and forth with my eyes and drew

NataSTNatasha, well, how cool you are at drawing (I know, I know that you are drawing, but drawing is also not easy and it is still drawing), well, the Artist is simple!

Natasha, NataST, here I have nothing to say. Drawing is beyond my reach for me. Bravo!!

Well done! I would definitely not copy this picture))) now I am sitting, I practice simple cats to draw by hand)))

[Husky]

I haven't looked at the topic for a long time - and here such beauties appeared !!!

Husky, Luda, a very beautiful box! So what if no lid is a candy bowl-bonbonniere, very elegant and bright!
I won, I also decided to "practice"))) It is very difficult to bake smooth walls, and to assemble - generally horror))

Matanya, Tanya, such funny and smartly gingerbread cookies, and even with gifts - I'll take the idea away, if you don't mind)))

ledi, Verun, very beautiful! Did you paint blush for snowmen with dry paint? The sheep are super, turned out to be so playful)))

Olga_Z, for the first time, very cute gingerbread!

Nansy, Natasha, well, there are no words - it’s worth it !!!!))) Pretty! Everything is so neat, with skill, the colors are perfectly matched, prams with babies are above all praise! About the middle with Richelieu, generally keep quiet))), not a single blot and such grace!

DaNiSa, Alyonka, I repeat after Liza - very positive gingerbread cookies, you can't look without a smile, especially a cool medallion with a snowman and a Christmas tree, lambs, sheep, goats - everything is very cute and cool!

bearbear, pretty mittens!
aelita1702, Vika, very stylish gingerbread, everything is done with taste, the letters are very delicately decorated - in the spring!

NataST, Natasha, it's a beautiful unicorn! Did you draw right away without any markings?

Sahara, thank you very much for the feedback on my cookies

Yes. made with a brush

[Sahara]

I tried to repeat the feat of Luda - to make a box, and that's what happened))) It is very difficult to bake even, the same rims for the walls, in addition, I did not press them after baking and they turned out to be humped, I had to stick icing on the sides unmeasured)))
Dough according to my recipe, decor - icing, gelatin glaze according to Lisa's tip.

Sahara, Lera! Nice casket! What did the sides bake on?

ledi, Vera, did the side panels according to the same principle as Luda Huska, do you remember her heart-shaped box without a lid?
It turns out like hoops, I cut out a big heart with a smaller heart, I got four such contours, I wanted the walls thinner than the walls, but when you cut out the middle, then everything sticks and crawls along the canopy, in general, horror, I don't know how Luda coped, I certainly do not I will tinker with this more)))
I think it's better to start learning to work with mastic in the near free time, it hurts me to like your decorations on the houses
Ver, is this harder than icing?

Sahara, Lera, a good box !!! And I still can't make up my mind)))

Lera, and how did you bake the wall for the box? How? Don't understand what kind of gelatinous frosting from Lisa is? I don’t seem to know this? The recipe for the studio !! What about icing? You have it very thick. And what do you paint with? What is your nozzle number. I believe that I have thick lines, but yours are even thicker. And another question. Why is there so much icing on the side of the box? Did you cover something? Do you have something with the gingerbread box wall?
You know, seeing your awesome gingerbread cookies, I would not say that the box was made by you. I think this is not your best work. But the small hearts, it seems, are made even with a different icing. It seems softer.

Lera, while writing, you have already explained how you did it. And you that cut out hearts were shifting from place to place. I didn’t understand what was fidgeting.

Sahara, Lera, everything looks good together! But if you find fault, then I did not really like the sides of the box, it looks rough in comparison with the gingerbread cookies and the lid. Are the lines really thick, or is it on purpose? But in general, I can't imagine how you bake these boxes, I once tried to bake on the side of the mold, all the dough slipped and baked in a lump, well, I stopped experimenting, and it seems soooo laborious to cut the edges! It is necessary to try to bend the hot layer, only it seems to me that it will crack from my test, but you still need to try

It's not difficult if there are all sorts of devices (weiners, plungers), it's very hard for me to sculpt figures

Husky, Luda, I say that the boxes are not mine. In fact, not thick lines, this photo is enlarged, the box is the size of a palm, small hearts 2 cm each, I drew with the tip of 1.5 PME (my beloved, Korean ATECO is in no way comparable, with these straight icing slips out), lid I painted the heart with number 2, and covered the walls - because the rims from the hearts did not coincide at all, I cut it out directly on the parchment on a baking sheet, but the width of the rims was 4 mm and they stuck to the cutting, even if it was abundantly sprinkled with flour. The icing is really a bit thick - these are the remains of icicles for the house.
Liza would say better about gelatin glaze, I don't know the exact proportions of gelatin and water, I did it by eye, I looked at the Madyars - they write everything differently. But I will say that the gelatinous one - I liked it better than the varnish on the yolks, the gingerbread cookies are very shiny and if you need to remove the icing, then there are no traces, the varnish if you rub it a little - it becomes dull.

On the boxes - I have another idea, try to drink in the form - the bottom together with the walls and pour peas or beans there, well, how are sand baskets made. I also saw a round box on the Madyar site, the walls of which are made of small rectangles, which are connected by icing along the perimeter, it is a pity that I do not know how to display pictures (((
Girls, what if I saved the photo in my folder, and then can I put it here, or is it also impossible? I'm just in computers oak oak)))

It is possible, not through HP, but through another resource. Or links (not direct).

Well then, here is a link to this box, here is the gelatinous varnish, but she writes 3 tbsp. spoons of water for 1 tbsp. a spoonful of gelatin, it turns out very thick, it is impossible to paint. In general, this site has many different recipes and beautiful works.

🔗

Lera, in which folder did you save the photo?
If here on HP, then later you can use it at least 100 times.
When uploading photos to the message, several options are highlighted, including your photo gallery. You select it, there you find the photo you need and calmly copy the link - either full or a preview. And you insert it into the message text.
And if you need to insert a photo from a third-party resource, then right-click on the picture, select "copy image address", and paste this link to the image address into your text using the button with the image in the service line (where the fonts are, globe, etc.).
And you will be happy.

Ol, thanks
I hope I didn't mess anything up
here is the box I was talking about

I did everything right)) and a cool box! this is an option just for me, to build the walls of the box from pieces of cookies

DaNiSa, Alyon, do not think that it is so easy to assemble in pieces))) You need to wait for each to dry out and attach well before attaching the next one, then perfectly align each piece and adjust it to the previous one, well, so that the icing is evenly distributed for fastening , in general, fuss-fuss, certainly not for me. Of course, I tried to make a similar one, but there are walls made of small ovals with wavy edges, it's worth it to dry unfinished, icing smeared - mom daragai))) in general, I'll put it out later - for the girls to have fun)))

Lera, I confess !!
I take all my words back. You are hero!! Having learned the dimensions of your box, the dimensions of the wall thickness and the size of the little hearts ... yes, I will not even undertake such a thing. It is not possible to keep them in your hands. And you also painted. I'm shocked !!
And don't say it's not yours !! I am sure that with such diligence and desire to make a box, you will win it !!
But about the gelatinous glaze, I missed something.
Lisa should be tortured. I have not read something like that anywhere on the forum.

and I don't think ... it's just that perseverance is needed for this, but I can sit and poke around, if only no one distracts

Yes, Alyonushka you are right to one hundred percent, the main thing here is perseverance, and since you have this magical quality, then of course you will succeed, unfortunately, I have huge problems with this business, so it is very difficult for me
anatana, beautiful bird! Good, confident lines, with time it will be even better, the most important thing is that you like it and gain experience!

DaNiSaAlena, we have already noticed this When I came here, the Temka was 60 pages long))) and you put everything on the shelves

Lera, thank you !!!!))) You can try this one And another question, here are the nozzles for me, I don't like it at all. Now I work without attachments. Is PME really much better?

[TanyaNam]

She brought me to show you my first cribs

TanyaNamOh, it's already spring near the tree! Girls, you can't keep up. And you are already decorating the hearts! Come on, fellows, go for it, and I'll steal ideas from you. Tanya, good gingerbread! I liked the lamb and the bouquet! Only with the letter "O" you messed up a little, what happened?

TanyaNam, well done, what are you trying, what are you learning! Pretty gingerbread cookies, well, in some places you can see uneven lines, but you will fill your hand and they will be even, even! But I really liked the sheep and the flowers look so elegant

ledi, Thank you.
This is not with "O", but something happened to my hands

TanyaNam, Tatyana, really liked the bouquet of flowers.

Husky, Thank you so much .Nansy, how can I not try when you spread so much beauty I already stocked up with a bag of gingerbread molds

[Gingerbread Smileys]

She brought her crooks! Since I wanted too thick gingerbread cookies, I rolled them thicker mezeshkalachiki! As a result, it was difficult to fill with icing. I thought a hundred times, maybe decorate with mastic ... BUT! Still icing! And I still can't use templates, and I would need everything faster, at random, but all at once on a gingerbread)))
Gingerbread Smileys, did for my son to school, he has a birthday boy tomorrow!

Sveta, I just trudge from them, they are so cool!

Svetik, you have such cool and positive gingerbreads !!! And nothing crooked)) And you gave birth to Fedya right on Epiphany?

Girls, thanks !!! But there are flaws!
Zoya, yes, he is my boyfriend at Epiphany !!!!

I congratulate you and Fedya! I wish you health, strength, patience and happiness !!!

Zoya, oh-she!)))) Thank you very much !!!!

Well, only you know and see them And I keep looking at the girl with eyelashes, coco!

Svetik, happy birthday to your son! All the best, kind and wonderful to all of you!

why are these crooked things !? what a beauty! but I liked the face in the third row of the second! : lol: Natasha look at how he looks at kokEtka
Sveta, happy birthday to my son !!

fomca, Cool emoticons! It's cool to give away such on April 1)))

well, you are straight - a lot of ideas))) How not to forget

Sveta! Happy birthday to your little son! And you parents of health and patience to grow it! The emoticons are great! What did you paint with chocolate or icing with dye?

ledi, Vera, I drew everything with icing.
Girls, dear, thank you for the congratulations! We will bring everything to life!

fomca, Sveta cool emoticons))) I especially liked the big white mouths, hilarious. And I join in the congratulations !!!!

girls look, I saw the gingerbread house cake, great, right?

Is there also a cake inside?

aha, also a cake! shocked herself! I wanted to take it first to Temka about the houses. and then I decided that it was still gingerbread in the form of houses, how many ideas for decorating facades ...
although ... no ... it's better to transfer it later all the same to Temka about the houses ... but, okay, I'll take it there and leave it here

[anatana]

This is the gingerbread. Unfortunately, not a very good photo. I will accept any comments. I'd like to learn how to make beautiful gingerbread. So far, I just can't learn how to make a straight line. Can you tell me something ...

anatana, very cute bird! what doesn't suit you about her? and at the expense of straight and confident lines, this will come with experience. https://mcooker-enm.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=35010.0 and look at this post. Did you go here? https://mcooker-enm.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=35010.0 a lot of everything is written here

Thank you. I will read. What a pity that there are only 24 hours in a day and of them only a few evening - night hours are free)))

Elena, the same story! now I enjoy our Bread Maker in peace and quiet ... at half past one in the night

anatana, Elena, I can say that my first lines were much crooked! Good bird, very good for a start! And everything else will only come with experience, that's for sure

anatanaElena, I believe that you have a great gingerbread and a super bird, and not for a start, but just the right and beautiful work.
Of the comments on icing, there is only one thing - there is not enough volume in the fill, or they were greedy for the icing, or it was of the wrong consistency and you were afraid that you would not smooth out the fill.
And your lines are confident, nothing trembles, all squiggles are of the correct round and not broken shape.
if there was a better quality photo, one would think that the work of a master.

Thank you all for your attention and kind words.
How do you achieve volume in the fill? I didn't want to be greedy. But it turned out to be dim in the end. And in general, when I look at the work of the craftswomen from the forum and their fill is whiter and more voluminous. I can't do that.

Elena, you may have the wrong icing consistency. if it is not so white and does not fill up in volume, then you didn’t beat it, take a picture, show it - the collective mind is power

And what icing should be whipped? And I read that only the powder is gradually introduced into the protein, without beating.

Elena, Ah ah ah! but what about the link? come down here!
do as it says there and you will be happy

Wow! Thank you. Interesting, but sk. gram in 1 protein, otherwise I don't have weights.

anatana, Lena, I don’t know how you got there with straight lines, but the curls are very confident, I get them every other time.

about 30-40 grams, when I weigh the protein I always get 30-31 grams - 1 piece, these are not very large

[aelita1702]

They asked, for example, to make gingerbread in the store, so I made different ones.

Natasha's wedding spied)

this is the fill on the file. I wanted to try the stained glass window. Will be ready soon. Look cool, just not to screw up))))

Well, again football))) These are the most popular and not very difficult to perform, if you first cast on the file))) 17x15 cm approximately

Dough from Lenkor

aelita1702, Vika is not a fig for herself !!! multi-colored is generally awful! and who else says that something is not working out for him ?!
but the girls in profile are chocolate?

Alain, this is all icing. I am far from chocolate, cream, cakes, cupcakes and a lot of everything that you do))))

aelita1702, Vika, how cool! All the gingerbreads are so beautiful!

aelita1702, Vika, awesome gingerbread! I've been sitting looking at it for half an hour! Everything is so colorful, butterflies, Kitty, owls, in general everything = everything!
Stained-glass windows - dump head !!!! Please tell us in more detail how you cast on the file, in the sense of each fragment separately?

About the tips: I think PME is the best, they are polished both inside and out, made of high quality metal or otherwise they say medical metal, the tip itself (cone shape) is slightly longer than ATECO and narrower, which gives a better view for painting, does not rust and as I said, icing easily slips out of it, in general, I'm happy with them, like an elephant)))

Lera, thanks! These are only two fragments 10x10) Tomorrow I will show the pictures.

Vika, I probably asked incorrectly ((((Did you cast the whole flower on the file at once? I mean, made the outline black, then filled it with red and completely transferred the flower to the base) or cast each petal on the file separately and put them together on the gingerbread?

Did you cast the whole flower on the file at once?

Yes, all at once. I would clink a petal on a petal, this little thing))) Just the word stained glass probably confused you))) I should have written "a la stained glass"

Thank you, I understand))) I really like this style, I will look forward to the pictures!

aelita1702, Victoria, how great everything is! Aaaaaa! I am delighted! I like everything - butterflies, and profiles, and really liked the football emblems! And you write that it is very easy to cast them on a file. Well, for me this is just nothing clear. I'm not a gingerbread guru yet. Tell me - did you make these emblems entirely on the file or just soccer balls? In general, what is the sequence? And further. You have so many flowers used in gingerbread. You make several bags of flowers at once. Or do you first draw everything in one color, then do another, then the next? And another question. There in the first photo there are kittens that you spied on the wedding in Natasha. There eyes and noses shine. This is not icing, is it? Chocolate, I guess?

Tanya, thanks !!! I immediately poured the balls separately to dry. Then she began to cast the emblem. The middle strips on which the balls were cast were the last to be put on the fresh icing.
I don't mix colors all at once. First, I draw everything with one, and when I interfere with the next color, what I painted is already grabbed and then does not merge. Although always different. It depends on what I draw. Owls, butterflies are all the remnants of color icing from the emblem))) In general, the most boring thing is when you breed colors))) Especially when you need a lot of them.

This is not icing, is it? Chocolate, I guess?

This is icing, only it hasn't dried up yet and therefore it shines. I was in a hurry to take a picture)))

[Mona1]

Mona1, Tanya, forgive me for getting in))), but maybe you will be interested in this video.

Casting technique on file or parchment.

I could not resist))) I post another video, here, in principle, the same technique, but if I understood correctly, the girl draws on caramel, in general, a very original box turns out.

Oh, Lera, how I need it, well, I really need it, thank you !!!!

[Victoria]

Here are my finished "stained-glass windows")))
The right one did so. I poured a cookie along the edge with red, where the picture should have been filled with chaotically white. I put a casting on top. And it turned out ugly Zaporola did.
The left one was done in a slightly different sequence. First, I also randomly applied white icing on the gingerbread, under the place where the picture should lie. I stuck the casting, then I already filled the edges with red and they, the stained glass window and the side fill turned out to be on the same level and already pretty. Although it was necessary to make cookies just square.
Photo from instagram pulled out, blurry something)))


Cats, whom I learned to draw by hand yesterday))) Some unicorns can be easily painted with a brush, but some can't do the simplest cats the first time))) and again LOVE


And girls, I have a lot of JOY today !!! : gi
Victoria Bredis, whom I adore, holds MK on gingerbread in Astana in February, very close))))) I was lucky, there is only one place left !!! I am so glad!!!

Victoria, congratulations! so are you going to the courses?
your stained-glass windows just dump your head !! cats are generally drop dead! here the head is cooking! Where are you doing the gingerbread? just like that or order?

DaNiSa, Alena, thank you))) Gingerbread, when there are no orders, I do it just like that, then they still take it))) These are for Valentine's Day and in general for an example. I baked the cookies from new forms, there were no thoughts on how to decorate))) They gradually come)))

so I caught fire, went to the site to Anna Lyubimova, typed in the basket of molds: girl_haha: I'm sitting here trying to persuade my husband

aelita1702, Vika, they are wonderful! The stained glass windows are simply gorgeous! I fell in love with kitties, took them to me

aelita1702, Vika, I can't even find words to express my delight !!! I take all your photos to my bookmarks)))
Stained-glass windows look very rich, I even like it more without a frame. Your cats will fly away!
And the letters are just class - simple and ingenious! I didn't even think that white hearts look so cool on a red background!

aelita1702, Vika, thank you, now everything is clear .. I really liked the stained glass windows. to tell the truth - I did not understand what you screwed up on the right, I looked, considered. I didn't find anything. Maybe not noticeable in the photo, but both stained-glass windows look great. And from kitties I bastard, graceful such kisul. And also tell me, these tiny hearts on the fill on the letters and over the pussies, is this how they are done?

Girls, thanks for the feedback. How nice)))

Your cats will fly away!

your words, yes to God in the ears)))

but it interested me more with a stamp

I’ve never done anything in my life, but I don’t do scrapbooking))) stamps are mainly from that area. And I want them too, but expensive infections))

And also tell me, these tiny hearts on the fill on the letters and over the pussies, how is this done?

it's as easy as shelling pears, it's just two drops)) put one drop, and then pull another to it.

aelita1702 Cool cool !!! I'll try to do that today!

aelita1702, super, golden hands!

[I cannot evenly tint the dried glaze with dry dyes, it turns out with spots. Maybe some kind of special brush is needed?]

Good day! I want to show my first gingerbreads for Valentine's Day! Faced a problem -I cannot evenly tint the dried glaze with dry dyes, it turns out with spots. Maybe some kind of special brush is needed?
Another question : when I paint flowers wet on wet, I don't have time to paint the whole gingerbread, the background dries and becomes crusty! Am I drawing slowly, or is there something wrong with the fill icing? (I make it according to the recipe: for 3 proteins, 500 grams of powder and 5 drops of lemon juice)
And the last question: I make gingerbread dough according to the lenkor recipe, sugar crystals appear on the finished cookies, how can I avoid this ??? (They are clearly visible on gingerbread with cats) Can you please tell me what is the problem?
I would be grateful for any advice)

MartaIgwhat adorable gingerbread !! people are already preparing for Valentine's Day! By the way, I also had sugar crystals, I'll wait and listen to what the girls say maybe this is because the sugar is not completely dissolved? your cats are wonderful! and what size is the gingerbread itself with cats?

DaNiSaThank you for the kind words) I also thought that sugar dissolves poorly, but it seems that I always tried to grind it well with eggs.
Seals measuring 14 by 11 cm.

MartaIg, very beautiful gingerbread, very! Are the flowers on the hearts mastic? I read about tinting, you need a brush with artificial bristles, and with what dyes do you tint? I tinted with pollen, but small details, such as blush on the cheeks, did not notice stains, but there the tinting surface is tiny

Girls, I make a recipe from Lencore, but, firstly, I put much less sugar than in the recipe, otherwise it is simply impossible sweet, there in the recipe 420 g, I put about 250, and secondly, I use fine sugar and it dissolves when beating with eggs. I have never had grains of sugar on already baked cookies.

MartaIg, Marta, nice gingerbread. The idea with cats is cool !!! And the hearts are all cool!
Regarding the test, I have almost the same))) And about wet-on-wet I think, you just do not have time. The fill did not seem to be thick, it lay nicely. You draw as quickly as possible, and then at the end knock a little on the table with a gingerbread.

MartaIg, Marta very good gingerbread, tasteful! I've already seen these cats in "Sweet Provence")))
very carefully repeated, well done !! about painting on wet fill, Vika is right - you need to draw a little faster

MartaIgMarta is also such a nice cat! And in general, girls, spring is coming, judging by your gingerbread!

Nansy, thank you) I'll try with fine sugar, mastic flowers, tint with pollen with a brush with natural bristles, today I'll try with artificial tint!
aelita1702, Thank you! I will fill my hand, you look and start drawing faster))
SaharaThank you! From there I took the idea :)
Mona1, Mercy) my hands are itching to start painting gingerbread by March 8)

MartaIg, Martha and everything, who didn't like the grains of sugar in the Lenkor dough))

Yesterday I, when kneading, melted sugar 2/3 of the part in corn syrup, and beat the third part with eggs. The dough turned out smooth, cool))) And gingerbread, respectively))

[How to tint dry gingerbread dye]

How to tint dry gingerbread dye
decided to share the video. here just tints with dry paint. but it interested me more with a stamp. how much do all sorts of gadgets facilitate the work

[Katerina79]

Girls, hello!
Take me to your friendly company!
I really like your atmosphere here, so positive!
I began to study gingerbread before the New Year and I really liked this business))
I will show a couple of my "creations")))

Katerina79, Katya, welcome. Gingerbread cookies are pretty, neat. And what is the recipe for the dough?)))
I talked on different forums, this is the warmest

Katerina79, very nice! : friends: how many newcomers are in our regiment! and gingerbreads are so beautiful than the other! mdaaa, these are no longer newcomers ... girls, what do you think?

beginners-beginners))) just these newbies, for months on YouTube they looked at master classes and in the bushes I spied on this Temko from "these"

Girls, thanks for the warm welcome!
And about the recipe, I was just about to say a BIG THANKS to Lera Sahara !!!
I only add a full serving of 30 grams of alkalized cocoa.

Katerina79, well, cool, what else to say!

Nansythank you
When I painted the heart, I watched your MK

wow, I'm glad the mk came in handy!

Katerina79, Katya, you are welcome! The gingerbreads are good! the filling is beautiful, the dots along the edge are neat, and in general all the work is done by 5 with an asterisk!
Glad you liked my gingerbread recipe
If it's not difficult for you, tell the girls how they taste to you and how soft they are. and how did you work with the test?

And our forum is really the most comfortable and friendly, the girls here are very responsive, they will always support, prompt, help and share their experience.
And our moderator, Alyonushka, does everything so that we all feel at home here!

Sahara, Thank you so much!
The gingerbread cookies are really delicious!
At first I made half a portion for testing, I was a little lacking in the taste of spices.
The next time I added the zest of one orange, 30 grams of alkalized cocoa, 2 tsp. cinnamon, 2 tsp. ginger, a pinch of cardamom, a pinch of nutmeg.
It turned out great!
It tastes like Gerda's dough.
I knead with 1200 grams of flour (Khutorok) in a Bosch combine and sprinkle flour on the table, without fanaticism
Hearts 9 cm and height 4 mm were baked for 10 minutes.
After baking, the surface is even, without bubbles.
The recipe is very worthy!

Katerina79, funny, great!

[Sahara]

Sahara, I also wanted to ask you about the bags. You wrote that you take it from the factory somewhere. Will you hand over your accounts and passwords?))

Katya, here 🔗
you also have ribbons on))
🔗

Lera, thank you! The prices are very good. I wonder how much the delivery will eat

[Olga 81]

Hello girls! How do you like this idea

Olga 81, how lovely! Girls, do you have any thoughts on how to bake such spoons? Maybe try it right on ordinary spoons?

🔗 from puff pastry I saw on spoons. maybe gingerbread so you can

spoons lovely! Olga, these are your photos?

I made spoons out of puff pastry, so I baked right on spoons, it was great and here you can also try

DaNiSa, Yes, my pictures and spoons I did in a mold presented for the new year.
Here's a mold

And such a result

I hope you don’t consider it an advertisement
The recommendations for the form use shortbread dough, but I decided to experiment with gingerbread. Unfortunately, I will not say the exact recipe for the dough, because I did it almost by eye according to the recipe for roe, and as a result, I got what happened. 10 cm spoons after baking

I wanted to. 8.99 form stands

Olga 81, Thank you

not on your nelly! on the contrary, it is a very good idea! thanks for sharing with us!

Olga 81, cool mold!

[MartaIg]

Good afternoon girls! I am exhibiting my bunny, I took the idea on a samovar, I don’t remember who, thanks to the author for that!

abalde.MartaIg,

MartaIg, Super bunny !!!

MartaIg, stunned, cool!

Miloviza, Sahara, Nansy Thanks, girls!

MartaIg, very cool bunny !!!

Katerina79, merci)
DaNiSa Thank you! The eyes are afraid, but the hands are doing!

Martha, I looked at yours, and I also wanted to do this in this thread)))

[MartaIg]

Again, the gingerbread by February 14!

MartaIg, Martha is very beautiful! You are a fine fellow, you paint like a pro! Your last gingerbread reminded of your youth - these gum at that time were very popular and delicious))) Thank you for bringing me back for a moment, in those sweet and calm times)))

beautifully! But this yellowness around the moon, figures and along the edge of the gingerbread is what you did? Is it so conceived or the photo showed it so?

DaNiSa I tried to shade with flower pollen

MartaIg, very beautiful work. The bunny especially liked

Olga_Z, Thank you! I myself trudge from this bunny)))

MartaIg, beautiful gingerbread!
