Ingredients
-
250g icing sugar
-
Flavourings
-
64ml water
-
Food colour
Methods
-
Sieve the icing sugar.
-
Gradually add water and flavourings, then stir well to form a smooth icing of the required consistency. Do not add too much water as it is absorbed very rapidly by the cake and produces icing that is too thin.
-
Divide the mixture into two portions. To one portion, add colours drop by drop until you obtain the required colour.
-
Pour the second white portion over the cake to cover the whole cake evenly.
-
Pour the coloured portion over the cake to make it flow down the sides.
