Baking Forms for baking should be covered with parchment or pick up special holiday paper packaging. They are embedded in a metal container and do not allow the dough to stick. In addition, the form must be filled only by 2/3, because the dough during baking will also increase in size.

Kulichi should be lubricated with egg yolk for an appetizing ruddy crust. Take a wreath and, without skimping on the yolk, miss the entire top of the baking. After that, the pastes can be sent to the oven heated to 190 degrees, 45 minutes. After I have finished everything, I say a prayer quietly. So that the cakes are successfully baked and all loved ones to taste.

While decorating already glazed pastries, show your imagination. You can use a curly sprinkle, make various figures from mastic, add a food dye to the glaze and make your paste unique.

“Kremlin” cakes are decorated with various figures of chocolate, add elements of oil cream, decorate with fudge. By the way, you can decorate the cakes with the whole friendly family. Try it. It's fun. You will definitely feel that the bright holiday of Easter is already on the threshold.
