    Separate 1 egg. Put the base mix, 1 egg, 1 egg white, fat and vanilla sugar in a mixing bowl. Use the whisks of the hand mixer to make a smooth dough.

Bake one after the other in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for 10-12 minutes. Let the angels cool down on a cake rack. To decorate, mix icing sugar and approx. 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to a thick, sprinkly glaze. Put up to about 60 g in a small freezer bag and cut off a corner. Mix the remaining icing and 1/2-1 tablespoon lemon juice to a spreadable icing. Decorate angel with icing, silver and gold beads as desired. Leave to dry.
