Stained Glass Cross Cake #confirmationcake

I needed a stained glass look for a confirmation cake. My customer wanted a cross with her chosen saying. I chose to use a mixture of powdered sugar, milk, and corn syrup to get the shiny look on the cross.

Lisa McClanahan said...: If I remember correctly I started with a cup of powdered sugar and then added equal amounts of milk and corn syrup. I would start with 2 teaspoons of each. Then test it on a parchment paper or plate to see how well it flows. You will want it to flow to fill in the spaces, but you don't want it so runny that it goes every where. If it is too thick add more liquid if it is too runny add some more powdered sugar.

Let me know if you try it and how it works for you.; November 1, 2015 at 8:23 AM
