frRecipe: Valentine's Day Biscuits
Kalmeijer helps bakers respond to the growing demand for playful and contemporary treats. A romantic example is our recipe for Valentine’s Day biscuits: a classic shortbread dough that gets a subtle pink color thanks to a touch of beetroot powder. The result is a soft, buttery biscuit with a loving appearance – perfect for a special day.
Ingredients
- 100% flour
- 50% caster sugar
- 55% cold butter
- 8.3% egg yolk
- 1.5% baking powder
- 3% lemon zest
- 1.6% beetroot powder
Method
- Mix the cold butter (cut into coarse pieces) with the sugar and lemon zest.
- Sift the flour and baking powder and mix with the beetroot powder.
- Mix the dough briefly – not too long to avoid toughness.
- Let the dough rest in the refrigerator overnight, and knead it smooth just before processing.
- Optionally garnish with (white) chocolate.
Process the dough with the KGM Biscuit Machine and use the figureroller heartshape (no. 1340‑900) or Heart roller (no. 1340‑905). The result: a beautifully pink‑colored biscuit, perfect for Valentine’s Day.
With Kalmeijer machines, you can easily create contemporary biscuits that perfectly meet the growing demand for variety.
