Fondants, Icings and Brightness

Dark Chocolate Icing Semi Hard Icing Recipe

The difference between the  icing with another cover is the addition of glucose that is designed to give shine and glaze and does not crystallize completely.

Like the ganache consistency are their differences in the balance between the chocolate and cream.

For the white chocolate icing require a a highest amount of  chocolate because is lower in solids

For glazes can also be used dark cocoa.

These recipes are used on cakes covered with chocolate ganache  to give a finish like a mirror shine and for petits fours finished, garnish and toppings on ice cream as toppings etc 

Important Note

For a flawless glaze will need to pass by a light color lady hose without tip  to strain any lumps and it is advisable to match the biscuit in its upper surface  and on the edges with a ganache in order not to leave gaps, and leaves run the glaze on the cake
