Patissdécor - Isomalt 150 g

Isomalt is a pre-cooked decorative sugar used in pastry and cake design by cake decorators to create diamonds, precious stones or edible glass: it can be coloured and flavoured.
Isomalt comes in the form of white, odourless powder or granules, with a sweet taste and low hygroscopicity.

 Patisdécor isomalt is ideal for making pulled sugar decorations, and is also a sweetener that replaces sugar. It gives body and volume to your preparations and limits the moisture absorption of confectionery.
 
Use: for art sugars and sugar decorations, melt 100 to 200g of water with 1kg of isomalt over a low heat, raising the mixture to 160°C.
For cast sugar, work at 160°C in the traditional way.
For satin sugar, heat to 170-180°C.
To colour the isomalt :
Dilute a small pinch of powdered food colouring in a teaspoon of water. Pour into a saucepan and allow the base to reduce slightly. Add the isomalt. Mix with a spatula.
To flavour the isomalt :
Melt the isomalt with a few drops of food flavouring.
