Gingerbread
Scandinavian-style gingerbread, fragile and incredibly flavorful. During roasting them around the house a wonderful aroma rises. Bake it must be very thin, then they are best! I zaszalałam and embellished them with icing in the style of Christmas decoration Glazed course you can leave for a period just before Christmas. While the urge to to try before decorating cookies with icing. Glazed is not difficult, but certainly very laborious. Despite this, I, own view that it is worth glazed cookies on the Christmas tree will reward hard work. Glacé ginger relatives can give as a gift.

Notes
Cake is very sticky, I therefore propose to form them using a mixer, Manual production is very cumbersome.
Frosting should be well beaten, so that there was not sugar lumps. It may be, sugar that you need more or less than I wrote it in the recipe, it depends on the size of the protein. Icing should be quite thick, best to check if it is ready by a test. It should dip a toothpick in the frosting and make a dot on the dough, if the dot is in the form of a hemisphere and not dissolve a sign, the frosting is ready. If you happen to like this, that he would have melted the icing sugar dosypcie, and if it is too thick kapnijcie a few drops of cold water. The perfect icing is easy to spread on the cake and sets quickly.
If you want to make colored frosting, divide him a portion of each and add the food coloring, after adding the dye frosting will be exactly the rozmieszać.Jeśli dyes fluid can dilute a little frosting, should then add more sugar. Ready icing Cover with cling film, to avoid being dried. Icing can be stored tightly covered overnight with foil, if it thickens a little, you can add a little water, to obtain a suitable consistency. I use to decorate the tubes made of parchment, I swirl piece of parchment in a tube, to impose the frosting and I cut the end of the tube, to form the corresponding hole. If you would be more comfortable to Use a syringe or piping bag with the appropriate tip.

Hello. The cookies are beautiful. I'm going to do it for Christmas. Only one question, recipe for frosting…meet for the first time such a provision. Really goes on such a nice icing, Cold ? The protein and sugar ? Without water ? I usually do the traditional frosting recipe grandma (hot sugar water), but I admit it is a looong grinding and laborious. Thank you in advance for the information.
Icing sugar and protein powder is a great ( you can see the dots on the cookies
Beautifully kept, is stable, dries as it should be:) A few drops of water can be added on the second day would happen if, that spread the decorating for two days. Grinding takes less time than in the case of “Water icing” and in my opinion is better with that of proteins:) I recommend! The important thing, after adding the dyes you sprinkle some sugar, because the frosting gently thins. Regards Anne
No they are just beautiful,the climate and as soon as I looked at the photo,immediately come to mind CHRISTMAS !!!
What color did you use as a gray?
Sa moja inspiracja. Beautiful!
Added icing to the typical blue and a little bit of red and purple came out of touch of gray:) If you would like to obtain a pure gray, suggests, buy black dye:) good luck!
Anna, could not resist yesterday and immediately ordered just black Wilton

This just is a great shade of purple! Congratulations ingenuity and ability
I'm afraid some tools for decorating, Life as I know everything will be not only in the frosting gingerbread
The best tool is a small tube made of paper:) I stapler can staple the paper, to pour a little icing tubes that comes out:) You can do it and will definitely be beautiful! Regards:) Anne
