5 Creative Ways Sugar Angels Use Satin Ice to Create Smiles
Delve into the world of baking and discover how our volunteers use Satin Ice to create cakes that transcend their role as desserts to become masterpieces that bring joy and celebration to our families’ lives.
In the world of baking, cakes are not just desserts; they are masterpieces that bring joy and celebration to our lives.
Our Sugar Angels are true artists. Armed with their mixing bowls, spatulas, and an unwavering passion for their craft, they possess the remarkable ability to transform the ordinary into extraordinary. From everyday objects to fantastical landscapes, Sugar Angels can turn virtually anything into a delectable masterpiece that tantalizes both the taste buds and the imagination.
Whether they are professionals or passionate hobbyists, creative bakers rely on trusted products to bring their visions to life. When it comes to fondant, edible paint, and modeling chocolate, one company that stands out as a go-to choice is Satin Ice.
Since 2011, Satin Ice has been an invaluable partner in Icing Smiles’ mission: The Icing Smiles logo is displayed prominently on Satin Ice fondant. The company has supported Icing Smiles over the years with cash and product donations. And its marketing director, Paul McVeigh, is Icing Smiles’ board secretary.
“I am honored our customers see Satin Fine Foods as a visible partner,” Paul says. “Icing Smiles is a pillar of our company, and we couldn’t be prouder to be associated. On a personal note, I have three young kids of my own. I can’t begin to imagine the pain these families must be going through.”
Satin Ice’s fondant serves as the canvas upon which many of these artists work their magic, allowing them to sculpt intricate shapes, achieve vibrant colors, and bring the most imaginative cake designs to life.
Sugar Angel Charmagne Pearson says she likes the quality and the “new” taste of Satin Ice fondant products. “In my area, I have limited availability of cake-decorating items, and I would need to add candy flavoring to Satin Ice pre-rolled fondant to mask the Play-Doh taste,” she says. “But a few years ago, they changed the formula. It now has a nice marshmallow taste and texture. It is consistent, and I know how it will behave.”
Sugar Angel Sandra Griggs Smiley says she uses the fondant for the dark, rich colors, including metallic gold, and Sugar Angel Mike Elder says Satin Ice is all he’s ever used.
Sugar Angel Kerri Weitzel adds: “If I have to cover a cake in fondant, I have always used Satin Ice because I can count on the quality of it creating a nice even non- tearing, clean, crisp-colored look. I also love it for use when I am doing sculpture work with a little addition of Tylose powder.”
In this blog post, we’re showcasing some of the incredible creations that have been brought to life using Satin Ice.
