Caramel Mirror Glaze

An absolutely gorgeous and delicious mirror glaze! This chocolate mirror glaze is a versatile, tasty, and stunningly pretty way to finish cakes and pastries. For a pearly shimmer, I stir a little gold luster powder into the glaze. Go for it — you've got this!

    1. Pour the sugar into a saucepan and stir in the glucose syrup. As the mixture cooks, don't stir it at all, or it will crystallize. In a separate saucepan, heat the heavy cream until hot.
    1. Once the mixture turns a caramel color, take it off the heat. Pour in the cream in a thin stream, a little at a time.
    1. Melt the chocolate, then pour the caramel mixture over it. Add the gelatin, softened ahead of time. Blend the glaze with an immersion blender, keeping the blade below the surface so you don't whip in any bubbles. For the glaze to coat evenly, the cake needs to be cold and the glaze warm — that's the secret to a perfect mirror shine!
