SPRINK - BAKELS

 “Sprink” is an all-purpose release agent made from canola oil and lecithin ITdoes not contain any water. It’s ideal for the coating of all baking surfaces including cake tins, baking sheets and difficult moulds. It works well with baked products that have a high sugar content.

"Sprink" is a great companion for Cake Decorators who enjoy working with fondant.

1. It removes Cornflour or Icing Sugar marks, when applied apringly to maked areas.

 

2. Prevents sticking - try it on your Tappits or Clikstix cutters, difficuly moulds or cutter - do not be too heavy handed, a little goes a long way.

 

3. At last but not least it adds a bleautiful gloss finish to fondant cakes. It takes approximately 12 hours for the icing to absorb the moisture, so take this time into account when spraying.

• Unlike some methods used to add shine, “Sprink” will not stain or affect the colour of fondant and it is tasteless and odourless.

 

Assembling a Gingerbread House

Step 1

Join one side wall to one peaked wall. Pipe icing along the bottom of the side wall and along the bottom and inside of the peaked wall. Join the panels so that the side wall is positioned on the inside edge of the peaked wall. Press the sides together and attach to the base. Hold in place for several minutes until the icing begins to set.

Step 2

Attach the other side wall and peaked wall in the same way.

Step 3

Press together, and let dry at least one hour before going to the next step.

Step 4

Pipe the icing along the roof angle of both peaked wall panels and along the top side walls. Pipe icing along one long side of one roof panel. (This will be the peak of the roof.) Position one roof section, so it meets the peaked wall and side wall edges.

Step 5

Hold this half in place while you add the other roof section.

Step 6

Adjust so that each side is evenly pitched and the center seam meets. Press and hold in place several minutes to allow the icing to set.

Step 7

Let your house dry at least two to three hours before decorating

Homemade Marzipan

HOMEMADE MARZIPAN has a grainier texture than commercially made marzipan, which is passed through heavy rollers to create a smooth texture.
The flavour of homemade marzipan can be adjusted to taste by adding more or less almond essence. The colour of the almonds can be maintained by mixing a glass or glazed bowl.
When using raw egg, there is always a risk of salmonella, so use homemade marzipan quickly, and make sure you wash your hands well between separating the egg and mixing the marzipan.

Ingredients: 225gr Icing Sugar; 225gr grown Almonds; 1 large Egg white; 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice; Almond Essence (a few drops). Add a colour if you wish
.
Mix the icing sugar and ground almonds in a bowl, add the liquids and stir together. Knead the mixture until smooth. Store in a polythene bag until ready to use. Use within 1 week of making.
