The modeling chocolate head featured above, which was molded first on a styrofoam ball before being transferred onto the cake, was accented with green pearl dust, pink pearl dust and cocoa powder. Cocoa Powder Adding liquor to a box cake mix can add an extra boost of flavor. You don’t want it to overpower the cake’s flavor, so make a small amount. Chocolate cake can be made with Baileys, Kahlua, and Frangelina, three of the best liquors. When pie dough is soaked in vodka, it produces super flakey dough with less gluten. One of the most important factors is the flavor of Christmas cake. A well-balanced spirit, such as a 40% alcohol by volume drink, adds a warm, fiery flavor to the cake. Adding brandy or whiskey to a Christmas cake is also an excellent choice.
Having done cocoa painting before now, which involves painting in different shades of brown using cocoa powder mixed with melted cocoa butter, I'm wondering if you could mix any colours with melted cocoa butter (or white fat). Hmmm. If you can, the disadvantage to that would be that it never really dries properly and could end up being smeared. Baking with alcohol, such as bourbon, rum, port, and vodka, adds flavor and texture to many baked goods, and it can even change the consistency. When you add vodka to pie dough, you get a super flakey dough, as well as less gluten in the dough than when you add water. When it comes to the dough for tarts and shortbread, consistency is important.
