Equipment

  • mixing bowl and whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Icing Sugar | Confectioner Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoon Lemon Juice
  • 1 tablespoon Milk or as needed
  • Food Colours as needed

Instructions
 

  • Take all the ingredients except milk in a bowl, slowly add milk and mix well to an icing. The icing has to be thick. You can add any food colour as needed.
  • If you want thicker icing make the icing thick and if you want a thinner glaze make this thinner.

Notes

  • if your powdered sugar is lumpy, you can sieve it before mixing.
  • Add milk slowly so the icing doesn't get too runny.
  • You can add gel food colouring for texture.
  • Lemon juice helps the icing stay white in colour and also gives a tangy taste.
