DECORATIVE TECHNIQUES AND RULES FOR
GARNISHING
1. Be creative with color.
A splash of color can bring your dessert a life.
2. Combine textures.
Adding different textures to the plate adds
excitement to the visual appeal of dessert course
and enjoyment only continues when eating
commences.
3. Compose your plate as you would do a
painting.
There are many ways to compose a plate.
Consider the plate as if it were a blank canvas
composing the frame for a photograph.
4. Consider the vessel
Don’t serve to tiny plate which may have garnish
popping off and on to the table once the tines of a
fork hit the dessert.
5. Let it be dramatic.
Have a little fun of your dessert. Employ tricks to
add some magic to presentation.
6. Don’t make it too tall or wobbly.
A slice of layer cake looks fantastic standing up on a
plate. But if it’s too tall, there’s a strong chance of it
toppling over even on a short journey to where it is
being served.
7. Be consistent.
When plating desserts for a crowd, be consistent
in your design and in serving size.
8. Master the art of royal icing.
A lot of people are terrified of handling royal icing,
but with time, patience, a steady hand and a little
know-how, you'll find yourself piping intricate lace
on your own gorgeous designs.
9. Contrast temperature.
Combining temperatures can be a beautiful thing,
but your plating does require some consideration.
