A fondant that doesn't flake off. Special frosting recipe if there is no mixer

The beautiful Christian holiday Easter is coming soon and we have already begun to prepare for it with might and main. Choose and look for the most interesting ways to color Easter eggs using paints or other products. There is still a lot of work. But today I want to propose to focus on only one topic. For example, I have already chosen how I will bake the Easter cake, but I have not yet decided how to cook the icing for the Easter cake. As it turned out, there are a lot of such cooking recipes and you can easily get lost in them, because even the icing can be different, and how many related problems can arise with it. For example, classic sugar icing can crumble and fall off the cake ahead of time, which will spoil its festive look. And what if you want colored glaze or chocolate. How to choose and what to cook in the end? Let's figure it out together.

How to make icing for Easter cake - the easiest recipe without eggs

The simplest and most popular icing for Easter cake is white sugar, made from powdered sugar. Contrasting with a ruddy Easter cake, it looks very beautiful, and it tastes great complements it. Personally, since childhood, I liked pieces of Easter cake with icing, if it fell off, I didn’t want to eat such a cake anymore. Icing is an essential element of Easter cake, without it I can hardly imagine this pastry.

For icing sugar you will need:

  • powdered sugar - 100 grams,
  • hot milk - a few tablespoons.

Cooking:

This is the most basic sugar icing recipe ever. It uses a minimum of ingredients and is suitable for those who doubt their abilities and have never prepared icing for Easter cake before.

The basis of this glaze is powdered sugar. Moreover, I suggest grinding it yourself in a coffee grinder in order to personally make sure that there will be no lumps and the icing will turn out smooth and uniform.

Pour powdered sugar into a deep bowl. Heat half a cup of milk and pour a tablespoon of milk into the powder and stir until no lumps disappear.

Stir step by step. They poured a spoon, stirred, realized that the powder was not all soaked, added another spoon. So you do not pour milk and do not have to add powder. It may turn out that there is no more ready-made powder left. Why take the risk of ruining the icing.

The icing of the desired consistency will stretch well and fit into a plate with a snake, and then slowly spread. In appearance, it looks like high-quality condensed milk, maybe a little thicker.

To apply icing on a small cake, you can simply dip the top of it into a plate with icing.

Large Easter cakes can be spread with a spatula or spoon. Be sure to let the glaze drip nicely on the sides of the cake in drops.

Now you can lay dried fruits, candied fruits and nuts on the glaze. You can sprinkle with multi-colored confectionery topping. Let the icing harden and the beautiful Easter cake decorations are ready.

Protein glaze for Easter cake

Icing for Easter cake made from proteins and powdered sugar is also very quick and easy to prepare. As in the previous recipe, the base of the glaze will be very finely ground powdered sugar. The smaller the better. And we will knead it on egg white, which will make the glaze more durable, but at the same time airy. You love meringue, it is prepared in a similar way.

For the white frosting you will need:

  • powdered sugar - 200 grams,
  • egg white - 1 pc,
  • lemon juice - 1 teaspoon.

Cooking:

1. Wash a raw egg thoroughly with baking soda. Then break and separate the protein from the yolk. Put the protein in a bowl where it will be convenient to beat the icing.

2. Grind the sugar into powder, for example using a coffee grinder. Then sift the powder through a sieve so that no large particles and lumps remain. From them, the glaze will not turn out so homogeneous and smooth, and large particles of sugar will not allow it to thicken. Add part of the powder, a third or a quarter, to the bowl of protein.

3. Beat the powder with the protein with a mixer until the glaze thickens and becomes opaque white.

4. Add a teaspoon of lemon juice to the frosting. If there is no fresh lemon, then you can make a solution of citric acid. Beat further until strong peaks.

5. The protein glaze for the Easter cake should turn out thick and smooth, spreading quite a bit when you water or spread the cake with it.

Protein glaze is ready, you can spread it on Easter cake and sprinkle with dried fruits and nuts. As long as the icing is not frozen, they will stick well and will not crumble.

Icing for Easter cakes on gelatin - how to make sure that it does not crumble

White glossy and elegant sugar icing can be made not only from pure powder or eggs, but also with gelatin. Thanks to this ingredient, the icing becomes less brittle and, when finished, does not crumble on the cake at the moment when the cake is cut with a knife. It freezes very beautifully, tastes wonderful and sweet and keeps well on Easter cakes. What you need on the holy holiday of Easter.

For cooking you will need:

  • sugar - 1 glass,
  • gelatin - 1 teaspoon,
  • water - 6 tablespoons.

Cooking:

1. In a small cup, mix a teaspoon of gelatin and two tablespoons of water. Mix well and leave for a few minutes for the gelatin to swell.

2. Pour sugar into a small saucepan and pour 4 tablespoons of water. Stir and put on low heat. Heat to dissolve sugar.

3. As soon as the syrup boils, remove it from the heat, let it cool a little and put the swollen gelatin into it. Stir until the gelatin lumps are completely dissolved. In warm syrup, it should dissolve without a trace.

4. Pour the gelatin syrup into a suitable container and beat with a mixer until the icing turns white and thick.

Thick and elastic glaze for Easter cakes can already be spread. The longer it sits and cools, the thicker it will become. The finished icing will not harden like egg white icing, it will remain slightly soft and therefore will not break or crumble.

Feel free to decorate Easter cakes with such icing, then cut into even pieces, icing on gelatin will keep its shape and appearance perfectly. No cracks or broken pieces. Perfect beauty.

Chocolate icing on gelatin that does not crumble

Chocolate icing, prepared according to this recipe, holds its shape just as well as sugar on gelatin. It is perfect for both cake and Easter cake, as it will not spread too much and will not crumble when cut. Gelatin makes it elastic enough to keep it beautiful and even under any conditions. It is prepared from cocoa powder and cream, so it tastes just excellent, like milk chocolate loved by many.

You will need:

  • cocoa powder - 65 gr,
  • cream 30% - 100 ml,
  • water - 175 ml,
  • sugar - 150 gr,
  • gelatin - 10 gr.

Cooking:

1. First, soak 10 grams of gelatin powder with two tablespoons of water. Mix gelatin with water in a small bowl and leave for a while to swell.

2. In a separate small saucepan, combine sugar, water and cream. And put it on fire.

3. While stirring, bring this mixture to a boil. But do not boil too much, it should just start to boil. The sugar must be completely dissolved.

4. As soon as it boils, put cocoa powder in a saucepan. It must be sifted through a sieve so that lumps do not come across. Lumps will not dissolve well and may remain in the finished glaze.

5. Mix the cocoa powder well in this solution and after the mass becomes homogeneous, remove it from the stove and put it in the still hot swollen gelatin.

6. Thoroughly stir the gelatin into the hot chocolate. All lumps should disperse. If it is not possible to stir them completely, then you can strain the glaze through a sieve.

7. In order for the icing to thicken to the desired consistency and it can be applied to the cake, it must cool to about 35 degrees. Then it will slowly spread and leave beautiful streaks on the sides of the cake.

Chocolate icing for the cake is ready. It will look very nice if the Easter cake poured with such icing is sprinkled with coconut flakes.

Happy holidays!

  • powdered sugar - 200 grams,
  • egg white - 1 pc,
  • beets - 1 pc. small,

3. First add a third of a pood and mix it with protein until the lumps disappear. Then put the next part and so gradually mix in the whole.

Protein and Sugar Easter Fudge Recipe

I think this is the most popular and classic frosting we know of. But it’s just that sometimes we forget how many ingredients to put in, and therefore we immediately look for a recipe. Another reason is that proteins do not always want to whip into a very thick foam. And without a thick foam, there will be no beautiful snow-white caps at Easter cakes.

But it's good that there are recipes that take into account all the nuances. Therefore, if everything is done according to technology, then the result is always joyful and satisfies any hostess. See the detailed recipe.

Required products:

  • Egg - 2 pieces;
  • Powdered sugar - 200 grams;
  • Lemon juice - 2 tablespoons.

Cooking:

1. Carefully separate the whites from the yolks into a glass bowl. We do everything very carefully, because an extra drop of yolk in proteins can ruin everything. Immediately prepare more lemon juice and powdered sugar.

2. Put the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Well-chilled proteins beat better.

3. We take out the proteins after the time has elapsed and begin to beat with a mixer until light foam. With the mixer still running, add the lemon juice. Beat and pour in small portions of powdered sugar.

4. Beat the whole mass at medium speed until strong peaks appear. This fondant does not drip from the whisks of the mixer. It can already cover the tops of Easter cakes.

This glaze will keep for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator. And on products it can freeze for several hours. Therefore, do not cover the pastry with a towel until it is completely dry.

5. We spread snow-white lush foam on top of pastries and decorate with various confectionery decorations. It can be multi-colored sprinkles, grated chocolate, waffle colorful leaves.

You can show your imagination and color the already hardened hats with confectionery pencils.

In general, it's all about your invention and good mood!

And then we serve pasochki for tea. Bon appetit!

An interesting way to make glaze with milk

I also liked the delicious milk. The preparation time takes no more than 5 minutes and the mixer is not needed at all. And the fudge itself is white-transparent, shiny and tastes pleasantly milky. It also freezes with a bang! Let's watch a visual video.

A simple option for glazing cakes on gelatin

Here we consider the simplest version of fudge with just three ingredients. And for everything to work out, it is important to strictly follow the recipe. And then it turns out just perfect! It does not crumble and does not spread, which all hostesses like so much.

We need:

  • Gelatin - 0.5 teaspoon;
  • Sugar or powdered sugar - 100 grams;
  • Clean water - 3 tbsp. spoons.

Cooking:

1. Stir half a teaspoon of gelatin with 1 tablespoon of hot water, but not boiling water. Stir, stir until dissolved, until transparent.

2. In a saucepan, combine 100 grams of sugar with the rest of the water and cook over a fire until completely dissolved. At the same time, stir vigorously with a spoon all the time.

Many hostesses use powdered sugar instead of sugar. It dissolves faster and does not leave any grains in the fudge.

3. Pour in the gelatin mass in a thin stream and knead until smooth.

4. Remove the saucepan from the heat. We need to chill her. When it cools down and becomes warm, beat with a mixer into a thick, viscous mass.

6. Therefore, we cover with a thin layer and immediately use the confectionery colored topping.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated in the process. Sometimes the icing may not work, but this happens in very rare cases and depends on the quality of the sugar or gelatin. Therefore, experiment in advance, so that later you can please your family and friends with magnificent glazed pastries.

Colored Beauty Recipe for Covering Easter Cakes

I was inspired last Easter and I created nothing but masterpieces! Well, in my opinion it is, but you can argue and criticize. I will not be offended. And if you like it, follow a simple recipe.

We take protein glaze as a basis. I described the cooking method at the beginning of the note, so cook it first. We also need dry food coloring. At that time I had green, red and blue colors.

Cocoa will also give a beautiful and tasty shade. You can put somewhere 0.5-1 teaspoon of the product in fudge.

We put our fondant in different bowls to paint them each in a different color. Pour the dye literally on the tip of a teaspoon and immediately mix with a mixer.

Here I painted it in a delicate pink color, adding a little bit of red paint.

Here I got a soft blue, like the color of the sky. I liked this shade the most and I applied it to large Easter cakes.

Then I decorated part of the cake with colored sprinkles, part with sesame seeds, part with poppy seeds and even waffle flowers.

Bottom line: you can use different food colors, just try not to overdo it. Let the colors be better gentle and not very bright. Fondant hardens in time in the same way as unpainted. That is, until it completely solidifies, it may take 10-12 hours.

Today I have everything. Got questions? Feel free to ask them below in the comments. And also share useful tips on social networks with your friends.


Housewives always bake Easter cakes on Easter holidays, and I am no exception. There are many options for dough for holiday baking, but the icing for Easter cake itself is not the last. I will tell you the recipe so that it does not sprinkle, but remains whole on Easter cakes and muffins. Then the product will be elegant and attractive. All beauty is always at the top, so you need to try to prepare the glaze so that it looks festive and does not crack or crumble at the right time. Follow all the cooking processes and you will get a wonderful, tasty, soft and not crumbling glaze. To cook it, take an ordinary chicken protein, but there are a few rules that you need to follow.




Required products:
- 1 chicken protein;
- 150 grams of granulated sugar;
- ¼ lemon.

Recipe with photo step by step:





For glaze I use only chicken protein, which should be properly chilled. I begin to beat the protein with a mixer at a slow speed.




I gradually increase the speed to form foam.




After that, I pour sugar in parts, but not simple, but powdered sugar. I grind sugar in advance into powder using a coffee grinder. I always use powdered glaze for icing, as it instantly dissolves in protein, and sugar can then crunch on your teeth. So, I pour the powder on a spoon, a little bit. I continue to churn.




I squeeze the juice from a quarter of a lemon, squeezing carefully so that the bones do not get into the glaze. The protein mass will become brighter, whiter, citric acid will whiten the protein a little. Also, the acid will help beat the protein even more.






Now I pour in the rest of the powder, turn on the maximum speed of the mixer and beat for another 8-10 minutes. The icing will gradually thicken and you will see it.




The icing is ready, and I transfer it to the dishes so that it stands in the refrigerator until all the cakes are baked.




I use this icing for any Easter cakes and. It is easily spread on the finished cake and at the same time does not roll off the surface, but lies steadily on the top of the cakes.




I smear the top of the cake with icing. Protein glaze with the addition of lemon juice does not crumble and will be soft and tasty even on the second day. Happy Easter!
