Hi ladies,
I'm making a ginger and pecan cake tomorrow which has crystalised ginger in the ingredients. I couldn't find it in Sainsbury's tonight, they only had stem ginger in syrup or glace ginger, so I got the glace, will this be OK?
TIA

Glace will be fine for the cake. Crystalised ginger is basically glace that is dried a bit and coated with extra sugar granules.Put the kettle on.

don't make a special trip - its the same as glace!People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.

I always use stem ginger as I have a large jar, I drain the liquid off so it doesn't make the mixture too wet, you could add a bit of extra sugar?DFW 1108 Proud to be dealing with my debts:love: 2014Is Going to be the Year...for love...:smileyhea0
