Oil-Based Velvet Spray White

This white velvet spray made with vegetable oil gives entremets, yule logs and frozen desserts the matt, velvety finish admired in pâtisserie windows. Sprayed onto a well-frozen piece, it instantly forms a fine, textured layer of bright white.

Its neutral shade suits every occasion, from wedding cakes to snowy Christmas yule logs, and shows off coloured decorations or fresh fruit placed as a finishing touch. Shake the can, warm it gently in a bain-marie, then spray from about 25 to 30 cm away from the dessert for an even veil.

Formulated with vegetable fats from palm kernel and coconut, it suits pastry chefs looking for an alternative to cocoa butter. Leave to set for at least one hour before serving.
