Ingredients

  • 1 packet of colorless flavorless powdered gelatin (12g)

  • 5 tablespoons of water (75 ml)

  • 1 kilogram of powdered sugar

  • 2 tablespoons corn or almond glucose

  • 2 tablespoons margarine

  • 1 teaspoon almond essence or white vanilla

Directions

  • Hydrate the gelatin in water for 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Place the pan over low heat or in a bain-marie and add the hydrated gelatin, glucose, margarine and essence. 
    Stir until the mixture is homogeneous, without letting it boil, and turn off the heat.
  • Pour the mixture onto a smooth, floured surface.
  • Start mixing the gelatin with the powdered sugar, little by little, until it forms a homogeneous and malleable mass.
  • If the dough is too dry, add more glucose or almonds.
  • If the dough is too soft, add more powdered sugar.
  • Knead the dough for a few minutes until it is soft and smooth.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • After resting, the dough will be ready to be used to decorate cakes, cupcakes, sweets and others.
