This ensures that all the nooks and crannies have maximum contact with the hot oil and also helps result in a deep golden brown funnel cake with lots of texture. ![]() ![]() When forming my cakes in the oil, I also like to leave sizable holes and gaps in between the batter ribbons. The cornstarch in powdered sugar is a saving grace when it comes to creating that crunchy bite we all love in deep-fried foods. It’s a sweet topping, yes, but it’s also in the batter itself to help the cakes develop a crisp exterior. In this funnel cake recipe, powdered sugar works double time. So we can all benefit from having a good recipe on hand to enjoy freshly made funnel cakes whenever the craving strikes. Funnel cakes are best served piping hot, still crisp from the bubbling oil. This was a grave error on my part, because as delicious as funnel cakes are, their life span is somewhat short. I’m embarrassed to say I may have even attempted to bring a few funnel cakes home for a midnight snack. Looking back, I can’t recall visiting an amusement park, carnival, or state fair without being welcomed with the sweet smell of fried dough.
