Then add the glucose syrup.
Add white edible colour – mix well.
This mix can be kept in the refrigerator for a week. To work with it let it come to room temperature.
To use – just spread lace as thin as possible in the lace mats.
Place in the oven at 60 C for 10 to 15 minutes or air dry overnight depending on the humidity level.
As soon as it leaves the sides and looks dry – you can test from the corner first.

Once you have made the lace, you can store it between parchment paper in a cardboard box. This recipe is eggless and suitable for vegetarians.
