Feather Icing RecipeOrigin: Britain Period: Traditional |
Ingredients:
1 batch basic glace icing or lemon glace icing 
Feather Icing Preparation:Method:Make a standard batch of glace icing in a pale colour (white, yellow, lime green etc) then prepare a small batch of glacé icing in a contrasting colour (brown, dark green, red etc). Make certain that the darker icing is thicker in consistency than the basic, pale, icing. Cover the top (and/or sides) of your cake with the basic icing in the usual way. Immediately, when the base coat of icing is still wet place the contrasting icing in a piping bag fitted with a writing or fine nozzle. Pipe parallel lines about 12 to 18mm apart across the cake. Now take a fine-pointed knife and quickly draw it through the icing at right angles to the piping, going in alternate directions (ensure you wipe the point clean after drawing the line). Allow the icing to set before serving. |
