Ingredients
White Mirror Glaze (Eggless)
100 g granulated sugar
50 g water
100 g glucose syrup
80 g sweetened condensed milk
100 g high-quality white chocolate
6 g halal gelatin sheets (adjust depending on size)
For the marble effect (optional)
A small amount of dark mirror glaze (prepared separately)
Toothpick or skewer
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the gelatin
Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water until soft and hydrated. Set aside.
2. Make the syrup
In a saucepan, add sugar, water, and glucose syrup. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
Do not let the syrup change color.
Remove from heat.
3. Add gelatin and condensed milk
Squeeze excess water from the gelatin and add it to the hot syrup. Stir until fully dissolved.
Gradually add the condensed milk while stirring continuously.
4. Add white chocolate
Add the chopped white chocolate to the mixture. Stir gently until completely melted and smooth.
5. Blend carefully
Use an immersion blender, blending only in the center without lifting it, to avoid air bubbles.
Blend just until smooth.
6. Cool the glaze
Let the glaze cool to 25–30°C (77–86°F). This temperature is essential for perfect coverage.
7. Create the marble effect
Add a small amount of dark mirror glaze on top of the white glaze.
Use a toothpick to gently swirl — do not overmix.
8. Glaze the cake
Place the frozen cake on a rack.
Pour the glaze evenly over the cake, letting it flow naturally over the sides.
Do not touch the glaze once poured.
9. Final decoration
Decorate with chocolate pieces, flowers, or any design you like.
The marble effect will appear naturally as the glaze sets.
