hi everyone, i'm looking for a recipe for sugarpaste that doesn't use gelatine as i'm a vegetarian. can anyone help?
A health food store should have a "gelatin" replacement and it should indicate how to exchange it for traditional gelatin. Then use any recipe you have.
hi, if by sugarpaste, you mean fondant, I have a recipe from The Artful Cupcake that doesn't use gelatin, though it does use an egg white. Just to warn you, though, I haven't tried the recipe yet so I don't know if it's good. My husband is vegetarian so I'm planning to try it at some point. Anyway, the recipe (summarized by me) is
1 egg white
2 tablespoons of liquid glucose
1 1/2 pound confectioners' sugar, sifted and additional for dusting
Small amount of vegetable shortening, as needed
Mix the egg white and glucose, then add the confectioners sugar gradually. Put dough on a surface sprinkled with confectioners sugar and knead it til you get a paste. Add a little vegetable shortening if the dough gets dry or cracks. Once you have a good consistency, you can keep it in the fridge for up to two weeks in a sealed container.
Marshmallow FOndant does not use egg or gelatin...
Isn't that vegetarian enough ? Marshmallow, Water and Powdered sugar.
Have you considered MMF ? Hope you'll find what you want...

Hi, just to let you know, marshmallows are made with gelatin.
Sorry, I forgot that part...yes. you are right. I don't know if it is possible to find a Fondant recipe without all these things. Is your husband the only one who will eat this cake ? If not make the cake and remove the Fondant ? are you making a cake w/ out eggs ?

Thanks, I'm the one with the veggie hubby, but I'm not the original poster who had the request -- that's angelahorn, she said she was asking because she herself is vegetarian.
But I also thought of something else in case it's helpful, the Wilton and Satin Ice brand fondants don't have gelatin in them.
I think for the texture and strength, homemade fondant probably needs gelatin. However, a vegetarian gelatin is available.
The recipe posted by Cheesefairy is the "original" sugarpaste [rolled fondant recipe. Over time, as the recipe was adapted, gelatine replaced the egg component.
AActually I tried with receipe wat cheesefairy uploaded It works I made teddy bear figurine on my choklate cake
AHai dear, I ll give u simple receipe u can replace butter for shortening here it is
60g white vegetable fat 30ml lemon juice 30ml water 750g icing sugar sieved Place fat,lemon juice and water in a medium pan and gently heat until the fat has melted. Stir in 250g of icing sugar and keep stirring until the sugar dissolves. Leave pan on low heat until mixture boils. Remove from heat and gradually add enough of the remaining sugar to form a soft paste. Beat well after each addition. Lightly dust the work surface with icing sugar and knead the icing continually until smooth and silky and no longer sticky. Store well, double wrapped in cling film and plastic food bag. Tint with colour as required.
