Simi Isomalt Story- Simi Isomalt is the clearest, brightest pre-cooked and ready to use isomalt on the market. We use only the very highest grade isomalt with no additives. Sidney created the recipe after trying all of the different isomalt products on the market, and various recipes, and still couldn’t get the results she wanted. After testing her isomalt with hundreds of students, scientists, as well as sending it to chefs with varying weather conditions around the world to test, Sidney tweaked the recipe to get just what she loved to work with, and the results have been amazing! Sidney’s recipe allows for maximum workability time, giving students longer intervals to work on their projects before the isomalt cools, maximizing ease of use, and opening isomalt work to all artists, regardless of experience level. Why Simi Isomalt? Instant gratification! Just heat, pour and go for stunning sugar "glass" designs, no cooking or tempering required. Isomalt sets up quickly for the best efficency, and goes right on your cake and out the door!
Happy baker, happy clients!
