Ingredients
- powdered sugar – 150 grams;
- water – 4 tablespoons;
- gelatin – 1 teaspoon;
- vanillin – 1 gram.
Preparation
1. Gather all the necessary ingredients for the powdered sugar glaze made with gelatin. You can substitute the vanillin with a few drops of lemon juice if you prefer. Make sure the water is at room temperature.
2. Combine the teaspoon of gelatin with two tablespoons of water.
3. In a small saucepan, add 150 grams of powdered sugar, 1 gram of vanillin, and 2 tablespoons of water. Place it over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture comes to a boil, then remove it from the heat.
4. Incorporate the bloomed gelatin into the sugar syrup and stir until it is completely dissolved.
5. Pour the mixture into a convenient bowl and, while it is still warm, beat it with a mixer until it reaches a light thickness. This should take about 3 to 4 minutes. Your egg-free gelatin glaze for Easter cake is now ready.
Since this glaze sets quickly, apply it immediately. Alternatively, you can place the bowl in hot water to keep it workable. After glazing the Easter breads, sprinkle them with decorative toppings right away. This amount of glaze is enough for 5 to 6 medium-sized Easter breads.
