Mexican Paste
Serves/Yields:
Prep. Time:
Cook Time:
Category: Fondant/Gumpaste/Sugarpaste
Difficulty: Easy
This medium is good for making flowers & decorations. It sets harder than regular fondant with cellogen and it is less likely to be affected by humidity. **Please note ** Measurements have been made with Australian standards - please check conversions into US.
250g pure icing sugar
3 level tspn cellogen

1 heaped tspn pure glucose (the extra thick kind)
2 tspn copha
35ml boiling water
Mix icing sugar & cellogen in bowl making sure cellogen is fully blended.

In a separate bowl, place glucose, copha & pour boiling water over top. Stir until all the copha & glucose have dissolved.

Add liquid to icing mixture and mix roughly.

Turn out onto a sugared surface & need/mix until combined & smooth. By the time you finish it should resemble regular fondant.

Store wrapped in airtight bag/container.

---------------------------------------------------

This paste dries out fairly fast... only break off what you need to use and keep rest covered. Once dried it is very hard and will shatter if dropped.
