Assemble: ingredients to prepare a basic glaze for our baked cakes. Combine all the ingredients and beat until creamy. EXPERIMENT 1- Place glaze in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before drizzling it over the cakes. Just make sure, the longer the glaze sits in the fridge the thicker it gets.
Let's begin- Transfer cake onto a clean plate.
Start pouring the glaze on the cake.
Keep turning the plate and keep drizzling. Let this cake get fully drenched in this glaze.
Just like a volcano the glaze will run down its side making it a pretty site.
Cake is all ready to enjoy!!
