How to choose ingredients

• It is best to buy powdered sugar from a store, because it should be of the finest grinding.... At home, fine powder is quite difficult to prepare. When buying, inspect its packaging and read the contents. Ideally, it should contain only sugar. Pay attention to the expiration date and do not buy an expired product. In no case should there be lumps in the powder.... This means that it was not stored correctly and moisture got inside. The integrity of the packaging is another important consideration when choosing a powder. Do not buy this product if its packaging is torn or damaged in any way.
• Ripe lemon glistens like polished. Moreover, its color can be from greenish to bright yellow. Squeeze the lemon lightly, if it is firm and slightly springy, then it is ripe... If it is soft, it may be overripe or even starting to deteriorate. By the relief of the peel, you can determine whether it is thick or thin. A bumpy surface indicates a very thick skin. This does not affect the taste or health benefits of the lemon, it is just that a large amount of the fruit will take up the flesh of the peel. Smooth lemon has a thin skin.

• Glaze can be tinted with gel dyes. They have the brightest and most intense color.
• If you don't want to use synthetic colors, use natural ones. The fill can be colored with the juice of a variety of fruits and vegetables.... Blueberries, beets, carrots, mulberries, spinach have a rich color, you can also use cocoa powder. Fruit and vegetable juice should be added instead of water so that the syrup does not turn out to be too liquid.
• Sift even the store-bought powder, sometimes whole crystals of sugar come across in it. They can get in the way during decoration.
