Step cooking
Glaze preparation
- Pour a teaspoon of gelatin into a small container and fill it with two tablespoons of cold water, mix. Gelatin should stand and swell well.
- Pour a glass of granulated sugar (180 grams) into the pan, fill it with four tablespoons of water.
- We put the pan on a small fire and cook until sugar is completely dissolved, constantly stirring with a spoon.
- When all the sugar has been dissolved, the pan can be removed from the heat and immediately add the already swollen gelatin. Beat all the ingredients thoroughly with a mixer until the mixture turns white (2-3 minutes). The consistency of such a glaze can be adjusted by whipping time. To get a more liquid glaze, beat for about two minutes, as soon as white appears. If you continue to whisk more, the mixture will acquire a thicker and denser consistency.
Drawing on Easter cakes
- Cakes that have cooled can be glazed immediately after whipping.
- Dip the top of the product directly into the container with cream, evenly distributing it on the surface.
To get drips, the glaze should be made not too thick. To do this, briefly beat it. It is necessary to apply the topping immediately after applying the glaze, since it hardens very quickly.
As a topping, you can use special multi-colored elements, as well as poppy seeds, chopped dried fruits. You can also add food coloring to the glaze, which will give a gentle pastel shade to pastries.
Then the surface can be sprinkled with coconut flakes, which will look good on a pale blue or pink background.
