Pine Trees Cake Stencil Side by Designer Stencils

Create a woodland scene with the Pine Trees Cake Side Stencil by Designer Stencils. This evergreen tree design brings a forest-inspired finish to Christmas cakes, winter celebrations, rustic weddings, and camping-themed birthdays.

Stencil green trees onto ivory buttercream for a classic holiday look, or create snowy white trees against a blue cake. The wide design makes a striking focal point and can be repositioned to extend the forest around a tier.

Sizing & Details

• Design size: 3⅞″ h × 11⅝″ w
• Stencil sheet with tab: 4¼″ h × 14″ w
• Includes one rectangular cake side stencil.

The artwork is nearly 4″ high. Choose a cake tier with enough clear height for the trees, allowing extra room for borders above and below.

The 11⅝″ design width describes one placement, rather than a complete cake wrap. Plan additional placements according to your cake’s circumference. For smaller decorating areas, mask unused openings to apply a selected section of the forest.

Cakes & Desserts to Decorate

• Christmas cakes: Create an evergreen border around a smooth buttercream or fondant-covered tier.
• Winter wonderland cakes: Use white trees against blue icing for a snowy forest effect.
• Rustic wedding cakes: Add a woodland accent to ivory or earth-toned tiers.
• Camping and nature-themed birthday cakes: Build a forest backdrop for separately added decorations.
• Square and rectangular cakes: Work on one flat face at a time, masking any design that extends beyond the available space.
• Sheet cakes and brownie slabs: Use the tree band across a sufficiently large, flat top, with room above for a message.
• Rectangular cheesecakes: Sift a light cocoa forest onto a smooth, level top shortly before serving.

Decorating Options

• Buttercream: Spread a thin, even layer of smooth, stencil-consistency buttercream through the openings onto a firmly chilled buttercream cake.
• Royal icing: Create raised tree details on dry fondant or fully set royal icing using a smooth, spreadable stenciling consistency.
• Airbrushing: Apply edible airbrush color in light passes over smooth fondant or firm, dry buttercream. Keep the stencil close to the surface to preserve the tree outlines.
• Powdered sugar or cocoa: Lay the stencil flat on a horizontal dessert top, sift lightly, and lift straight up. Use this method on flat tops rather than vertical cake sides.

A single contrasting color creates a clear forest scene. For trees in different shades, mask selected openings and work in stages, allowing each application to set before working nearby.

For Best Results

Start with a smooth, firm surface free of condensation. Keep the stencil level and apply your decorating medium thinly to preserve the tree details. Gently peel away from cake sides, and let each section set before positioning the stencil nearby. Clean and dry between applications.
