Fondant icing Fondant icing Fondant icing, also commonly referred to simply as fondant (, ), is an icing used to decorate or sculpt cakes and pastries. It is made from sugar, water, gelatin, butter, and glycerol. It does not have the texture of most icings; rolled fondant is akin to stiff clay, while poured fondant is a thick liquid. The word, in French, means "melting," coming from the same root as "fondue" and "foundry." However, what the French call "fondant" is sugar glaze, which has to be applied hot on pastries like "mille-feuille," while fondant icing would be referred as "pâte à
Spray foam polyurethane foam has the highest R-value of readily available spray foam insulation used in homes and buildings. Polyurethane is a closed-cell foam insulation material that initially contains a low-conductivity gas in its cells. As a result of the high thermal resistance of the gas, spray polyurethane insulation typically has an initial R-value around R-3.4 to R-6.7 per inch. In comparison, blown fiberglass typically has an R-Value of only R-3 to R-4 per inch. Foam insulation blocks all three forms of heat transfer: Spray foam is a very specialized packing material, often required for use in shipping valuable fragile items. Engineered
