Pastillage Oscar's Recipe

4 cups powdered sugar 10x

7gms knox gelatine

4 Tablespoons cold water

1 teaspoon cream of tartar

1 Tablespoon white cane vinegar

starch for dusting.

bloom gelatine in cold water 10 mins

place on a double boiler

add to 2 cups powdered sugar + cream of tartar and add vinegar

use hook attachment but i prefer mine hand mixed

add the remaining sugar until you achieve the right texture. knead the dough well until its pliable. dust with starch once in a while

NOTE: this is a quick dry pastillage recipe you can make a cake stand out of this.
