Shades of taste, color and smell are added with the help of other natural ingredients. For example, you can do caramel glaze With brown sugar, fruit fudge sugar- with apples and apricots, chocolate - with chocolate. To make the color stable, it is recommended to add a little citric acid.
You can experiment: replace the water in the recipe with juices or rich alcohol (rum, cognac, even white wine).
To make the white glaze “snowy”, you need to make it in a plastic, glass or ceramic bowl, stirring it with a non-metal spoon or spatula. Metal degrades the color of the product.
If the recipe uses raw eggs, finished product After decorating, for safety reasons, it is recommended to heat it slightly in the oven to protect against salmonella.

Different goals

Liquid glaze is poured over the tops of cupcakes or donuts. Glaze with the consistency of 20 percent sour cream is used for patterns and designs on cakes. Or you can make the icing even thicker and use it to glue one half of the cake to the other. A brush will help with this.

Powder

It needs to be ground very carefully. Right within a few minutes. And when you open the lid of the coffee grinder, a “sugar smoke” should come from the powder. Yes, and of course, it’s best to make your own powder, not store-bought. Moreover, it is done very quickly.

In addition, it is better to sift the powder.

Lemon juice

It is often used as a substitute for water when making glazes. And sometimes they add a few drops to the glaze for flavor. Lemon juice adds glaze great taste and smell. And if the baked goods are very sweet, then it makes sense to use more lemon juice, this will create a contrasting, voluminous and interesting taste.

On whites and yolks

Dyes

Of course, there is nothing wrong with using food coloring from a bag, but you can add natural coloring products to the icing. For example, a spoon raspberry jam- so the color will turn out red, and magical raspberry flavor. A pinch of turmeric and a piece of butter will give you an intense orange tint.
