Poured Fondant Petit Four Icing - cooking recipe

Ingredients

9 cups confectioners' sugar
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons clear butter flavoring
1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1 teaspoon clear imitation vanilla extract

Preparation

Prepare a double boiler over medium heat; bring 2 inches of water in the lower pot to a simmer. Sift confectioners' sugar and salt into the top of the boiler. Add corn syrup and 1/2 cup warm water; whisk until well blended. Stir with a spatula until icing is completely smooth and an instant-read thermometer registers no higher than 105 degrees F (40 degrees C), about 5 minutes.
Stir butter flavoring, almond extract, and vanilla extract into the icing. Keep stirring until icing takes on a glossy sheen and flows easily off of the spatula, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
