Viennese whirls dipped in red chocolate

2 tsp good quality red food colouring

Red sprinkles (optional)

Our Viennese Whirls are the perfect, buttery, soft, melt in the mouth biscuit, which would be the perfect addition to any bake sale.

1. Make up a batch of delicious gluten free Viennese Whirls (make sure you refrigerate them before baking to help keep their shape).

Cupcake swirls

Ingredients

A batch of Glutafin Gluten Free White Chocolate Cupcakes

2 tsp red food colouring

10g red fondant icing

A cupcake is always a favourite at a bake sale, they’re easy to make, easy to price up and even easier to consume. We’ve taken our classic white chocolate cupcake recipe but decorated them a little differently to really get into the red nose day spirit, although we agree – they are a little pink.

1. Make a batch of White Chocolate Cupcakes
2. When it comes to the decoration, split the buttercream mixture in half and add a few drops of good quality red food colouring until it becomes an acceptable shade of red.
3. Place the red buttercream to the left hand side of your piping bag and place the vanilla buttercream in the right hand side.
4. Give it the squeeze test until both colours of icing are showing when piped.
5. Decorate the cupcake in a swirl effect, starting from the outside of the cupcake and working inwards.
6. Top with little red balls of ready-to-roll icing.

Circular red nose biscuits

Ingredients

A batch of Glutafin Gluten Free Lemon Shortbread

100g Red fondant icing

These are a simple yet effective way to celebrate Red Nose Day, all you need is a batch of our delicious Gluten Free Lemon Shortbread and some red fondant icing to create a tasty red nose.

1. Make a batch of Glutafin Gluten Free Lemon Shortbread, except roll the dough out and use a cookie cutter to create a circle to a size that you desire. Place them in the fridge for 30 minutes before baking as this will help prevent them from spreading in the oven.
2. Once out the oven, allow to cool.
3. Whilst these are cooling, roll out the red icing and use the same cookie cutter to create a red circle. Place these on the shortbread and voila, you have the perfect red nose cookie.
