What is isomalt?

Commonly used to craft hard candy jewels, edible gems, blown sugar, and other intricate sugar decorations, isomalt is a sugar substitute that hardens into a clear, crystal-like finish. Unlike traditional sugar, isomalt is less sticky and has a higher melting point, making it ideal for molding and shaping. Isomalt can be coloured using gel colours. We stock the Cake Craft & Over The Top brand of isomalt.

Tips for using this ingredient

Here are a few quick tips on using sugar substitute crystals effectively:

  • Prepare your workspace: Use heat-resistant tools and surfaces, as isomalt reaches high temperatures when melted. Silicone mats and heatproof gloves are essential for safety.

  • Use a candy thermometer: Monitor the temperature carefully while heating to ensure your isomalt reaches the right consistency for shaping or pouring.

  • Avoid humidity: Isomalt decorations can absorb moisture from the air and lose their shine. Store your creations in an airtight container with silica gel packets to keep them dry.

  • Colouring isomalt: Add gel food colours sparingly while the isomalt is still hot to achieve your desired shade without compromising its clarity.

  • Practice patience: Creating intricate designs may take a few tries. Experiment with small batches to refine your technique before tackling more complex projects.
