Notes

  • Butter melting – Just melt the butter till it turns liquid. Don’t boil it or make it too hot. If it gets too hot, the glaze will turn oily and won’t be smooth.
  • Sugar powdering – Powder the sugar very fine in mixer and sieve it. If it’s not fine, glaze feels rough and hard to spread nicely.
  • Consistency – Add milk slowly and keep mixing. If you add too much milk, it will become too thin and won’t stay on cake. If too thick, just add few drops warm water.
  • Stirring – Mix well using a whisk or spoon. Stirring helps remove lumps and makes the glaze look shiny and smooth.
  • Storage – Store leftover glaze in fridge in a tight container. It becomes thick when cold. Just add little hot water next time and whisk to make it ready.
  • Portion – This makes nearly 1 cup glaze. Enough for small cake or 8 to 10 cupcakes. If need more, just double the recipe.
