Bakery — questions
What is Tortenguss in English?
Tortenguss is cake glaze. It is prepared as a glossy topping for fruit cakes and tarts. This collection includes clear and red versions, so choose the colour that suits your bake.
What is Sahnesteif used for?
Sahnesteif means cream stiffener. It is added when preparing whipped cream to help it hold its shape, particularly for cake fillings, toppings and decorated desserts.
Can I substitute Natron for Backin baking powder?
Natron is baking soda, while Backin is baking powder. They work differently in recipes, so use the ingredient and quantity your recipe specifies rather than swapping them directly.
