Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Can you color the dough before baking?
Yes, a powder or gel food coloring mixed into the dough holds up well during baking. For a decoration after baking, use royal icing or fondant once the biscuits have cooled.
Why chill the dough before cutting it?
Chilling firms up the butter and prevents the biscuits from spreading or losing their shape during baking, which is important for clean-cut decorations.
Can this mix be used for a tart crust?
Yes, the dough can also be used as a base for an apple tart: spread it in a pan, add fruit, and follow the same baking time, keeping an eye on the color.
