Craft Some Holiday Magic

Royal Icing Angels – fun for the whole family

Royal icing angels are a simple Christmas craft everyone can enjoy. With the Ankarsrum Assistent Original, you can quickly whip up the perfect royal icing, ready to be piped into little angel shapes. Let the children decorate them, then hang them on the tree or use them as charming holiday table decorations.

Royal Icing Angels recipe

You’ll need: piping bag with nozzle, paper cut-outs, and string

Ingredients:
3 tbsp aquafaba (chickpea liquid)
½ tsp white vinegar
2 dl icing sugar

Instructions:
1. Set up your Ankarsrum Assistent Original with the beater bowl and balloon whisks.
2. Add icing sugar, aquafaba, and vinegar into the bowl.
3. Whisk until the mixture is fluffy and smooth.
4. Adjust consistency: add more icing sugar if it’s too runny, or more aquafaba if it’s too thick.
5. Fill a piping bag and pipe small angel shapes onto baking paper.
6. Decorate with the paper cut-outs by gently pressing them into the icing.
7. Leave to set.

Tip: Want to hang them on the tree? Place a small loop of string on the baking paper before piping. Once set, the angel is ready to hang. You can also add food colouring to the icing for a festive touch.

Apple Garlands

You’ll need: Red apples, lemon juice, baking paper, string, blunt needle

Instructions:
1. Slice the apples into thin rounds (about ⅛ inch).
2. Brush with lemon juice to prevent browning.
3. Place slices on a baking tray with paper and dry in the oven at 75°C (170°F). Keep the door slightly open to let out moisture.
4. Drying takes about 5 hours – slices should be dry but not browned.
5. Once cool, thread them onto string with a blunt needle.

Tip: Mix in dried orange slices, cinnamon sticks, or star anise for extra fragrance and holiday spirit.
