Learn a unique method to create amazing portraits with chocolate that can be used to decorate a cake!
This tutorial will make anyone look like a master artist as Chef Yener shows you a very easy way to create portraits made with chocolate. This technique can also be used to create logos and other images, not just portraits. All you need is a printed image, chocolate in a piping bag and some fondant. Then add colour either with an airbrush or paintbrush.
While not everything on this list is absolutely required, these are the things used in this tutorial video. Of course you are welcome to find alternative ways of doing things and we would love to hear if you’ve discovered an easier method or better tool to achieve good results.

Aww thanks Yerner yes will definitely try to use Candy melts for this technique and show u a pic.By the way I have a fb website called Sharon’s Creative Explosion Cakes. I have done some edible marker images and 3d cakes. It will be an honor if u could take a minute to visit my page and write a comment about what u think of the cakes Yerner. Thanks in advance
Hi Yerner… Loved the class. Can we use Wilton Candy melts for this? Is it the same method when using modeling chocolate? Last question if I am not a airbrush fan can I use petal dust to shade in?
Just watched, BRILLIANT!! I will try to do this, practice will hopefully make perfect. Thank you Chef.
You are welcome
What kind of airbrush are you using? single or double action?
I can’t wait to see this one. I know is going to be amazing like always.
Love it
