Renshaw - Extra Sugar Paste
Renshaw Extra Sugar Paste - Yellow 1 kg
Sun-yellow shade from the Renshaw Extra range, for delicious and festive cake design, 1 kg.
Renshaw Extra Yellow Sugar Paste 1 kg features the firm and elastic texture characteristic of the Extra range: a smooth covering, precise modeling and good long-term stability, with a vanilla flavor that remains subtle behind that of the cake.
This sun-yellow shade, achieved with a single colorant (E161b), is part of Renshaw's warm palette. The 1 kg format from the Extra range is designed for consistent professional production: several coverings or one large cake without having to join blocks.

Recommended applications
- Children's birthdays: sun, bee and yellow character decorations for children's parties.

- Sunny wedding cakes: summer weddings with sunflower and Mediterranean palettes.
- Family celebrations: a soft shade for summer and spring celebration cakes.
Instructions
- Tempering: remove the paste from its packaging 15 to 30 minutes before use so it reaches 18 to 22 °C.
- Kneading: knead for 1 to 2 minutes to soften it. If it remains firm, microwave for 5 to 10 seconds.
- Rolling: dust the work surface with icing sugar or corn starch, never flour. Roll out to a thickness of 3 to 4 mm.
- Covering: place the paste over the cake, already coated with ganache or smooth, chilled buttercream, then smooth the top before the sides.
- Finishing: trim the excess with a knife or rolling cutter, then smooth once more with a fondant smoother to remove air bubbles.
Store at room temperature (15 to 22 °C), in its original airtight packaging, away from light and heat. Do not refrigerate: moisture causes the paste to sweat and become sticky on the surface. Once opened, wrap the remainder in plastic wrap, place it in an airtight container and use within 2 to 3 weeks.
