Perfect Mirror Marble Cakes By Russian Confectioner

Published 9 years ago

From time to time we stumble upon someone without a big presence on the internet, like this Russian confectioner Olga, who makes incredible cakes and other sweets, that look like marbled mirrors. She only shares her work on her Instagram account, quietly introducing people to her incredible food art.

Oh, and thanks to Reddit user SuperDrew124, you don’t have to wonder how these are made, because here’s the recipe:

Ingredients: 20 g Gelatin Powder, 120 g Water, 300 g Glucose, 300 g Sugar, 150 g Water, 200 g Sweetened Cond Milk, 300 g Chocolate (White, Milk, Dark or a mix of those), Food Coloring

How to:

1) Bloom the gelatin in the water;
2) Boil the glucose, sugar & water;
3) Remove from heat and add the gelatin;
4) Add the condensed milk;
5) Pour over chocolate and buerre mix to remove air bubbles;
Use at 35C/95F.

The shiny marbling effect is achieved by pouring different color glazes together over the cake.
