Brilio.net - There are many types of pastries made by Indonesian people, Snow White Cake is one of them. As the name suggests, this type of dry cake is served with a sprinkling of powdered sugar that is pure white like snow. Apart from being sweet, the addition of powdered sugar makes the appearance of the snow white cake even more attractive to eat.
The Snow White cake itself is made from a mixture of wheat flour, cornstarch, butter and egg yolks. Mix all the dough together until it forms a smooth dough. If so, print the snow cake in the shape and size according to your taste.
Next, arrange the snow white cake on a baking sheet, then bake in the oven. Once cooked, the snow cake can be sprinkled with powdered sugar. To do this, you can sprinkle the snow cakes one by one so that the entire surface is completely coated with powdered sugar. Unfortunately, this method is sometimes ineffective because it takes a long time.
Not only that, refined sugar usually doesn't stick perfectly. In fact, the powdered sugar actually melts and makes the snow white cake soggy that it no longer tastes good.
Tricks so that the snow white sugar sticks perfectly and doesn't melt quickly.
To get around this, you can imitate the method of sticking powdered sugar on the Snow White cake shown by YouTube user Mama Ezy. The first step, mold the cake dough then bake in the oven at 160 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes.

While waiting for the cake to cook, you can prepare the powdered sugar. To make it tastier, this netizen mixed 5 tablespoons of donut sugar, 5 tablespoons of powdered sugar, and 3 tablespoons of white powdered milk in a bowl. Stir until all ingredients are evenly mixed.

Next, remove the cake from the oven. Without waiting for it to cool, immediately lift and put the cooked cakes one by one into the plastic containing the powdered sugar mixture.
"This makes the mixture more stable and practical," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from Mama Ezy's YouTube on Friday (5/4).

In his video upload, he put around 10-15 snow white cakes in plastic. If so, close the plastic tightly. After that, shake the plastic so that the entire surface of the cake is completely covered in powdered sugar.
"This way, the snow white layer will last longer and not melt quickly and will definitely be thicker," said the owner of the video.
After that, open the plastic and take out the snow white cakes one by one. Arrange them first on a cooling tray until the temperature is completely cold. When it is cold, the snow cake can be consumed immediately or put in a jar.

How to store refined sugar so it lasts a long time.
Here are several ways to store refined sugar so it lasts longer:
1. Store in a tight container.
Refined sugar should be stored in a tight, airtight container to prevent moisture from entering. Moisture can make refined sugar hard or lumpy.
2. Keep away from moisture.
Avoid storing refined sugar in damp places such as near water fountains or in kitchens that have high humidity levels. It is better to store it in a dry and cool place.
3. Avoid direct light exposure.
UV rays from sunlight can affect the quality of refined sugar. Store refined sugar in a dark place or in an opaque container.
4. Guard against extreme temperatures.
Refined sugar should not be stored in a place that is too hot or too cold. Extreme temperatures can affect the texture and quality of refined sugar. Store it in a place that has a stable room temperature.
5. Don't leave it open for too long.
After use, make sure to immediately close the powdered sugar container tightly. Don't leave it open for too long so that the refined sugar remains protected from air humidity.
By following the steps above, you can ensure that refined sugar remains fresh and of good quality for a longer time.
