Using a teaspoon carefully spoon the mixture into each of the holes in the doughnut tin. Only fill 3/4 full as the mixture will puff up when baked.

To make the icing, place the fondant icing sugar in a large bowl (or split into seperate bowls if making a range of different colours) add a few drops of water and a drop of food colouring or flavour extract and mix until you reach a dipping consistency. If you make this too runny add a bit more icing sugar to thicken.

- 500g Fondant icing sugar
- 1 tbsp Water
- Food colouring (Assorted colours)
- ½tsp Orange extract

If you want to make chocolate icing, follow the above steps, adding cocoa powder and omitting the food colouring (you may need to add a touch more liquid)
For this step you'll need:
