 
Comb through prepared SugarVeil® Confectionery
Icing for delectable dessert details that flexibly drape
onto a cake or plated dessert.
Select one of the four edges of the SugarVeil® Confectionery
Comb for a variety of lines: "Fine Lines" for
quick setting extremely delicate details, "Deep
Lines" for expandable 2D to 3D designs, "Medium
Lines" for general applications, or "Heavy
Lines" for individual laces to twist, knot, or
tie into bows.
These SugarVeil® Confectionery Comb and SugarVeil® Confectionery Icing techniques resulted in a wonderful creation we affectionately
call: SugarVeil
Meets the Jetsons.

Veil Technique
- Comb through SugarVeil mixture using the "Deep
Lines" edge of the Confectionery Comb.
- Using a parchment cone or the SugarVeil Icing Dispenser,
pipe tiny dots between lines 1 and 2, spaced 1-1/2" apart.
- Pipe dots between lines 2 and 3 spaced 1-1/2"apart,
but offset the positioning (as in the placement of bricks)
so that the dots are centered between the previous line
of dots.
- Connect lines 3 and 4 repeating same dot pattern as
between lines 1 and 2. Continue alternating dot pattern
through the remainder of the lines.
- When set, peel from surface and expand lines to drape
as a veil.

Triangle Spirals
- Comb through SugarVeil using the "Medium"or "Deep
Lines" edge of the Confectionery Comb.
- Using a ball or other blunt-edged tool, scrape a series
of "W’s" in the combed lines, creating
triangles.
- When set, grasp the top point of the triangle with
one hand and, offsetting slightly, pinch bottom corners
of the triangle together with the other hand. Twist to
form a spiral coil (tighter twisting forms a gradation
of loops).
- Place by attaching each end to icing or plated dessert.

Knotted and Twisted Laces
- Comb through SugarVeil mixture using the "Heavy
Lines" edge of the Confectionery Comb.
- When set, twist, knot, or tie individual laces into
bows.
|
 SugarVeil® Sparklers
- Comb through SugarVeil mixture using the "Fine
Lines" edge of the Confectionery Comb.
- Connect the combed lines by piping perpendicular lines
across them, spacing 1" apart. Each piped line will
serve as a center "spine" of a sparkler.
- When set, use small scissors to cut through the series
of combed lines, cutting evenly between the "spines".
- Twist sparkler spine onto a fine rice stick. (Rice
sticks are delicate rice noodles, available at Thai grocers).
