I made my fav vanilla cake
Once cake is cooled place butter icing In centre of cake Cover entire cake wth butter icing For a white icing use wooden spoon white margarine
Place the cake in freezer for an hour Remove once the mirror glaze is ready to pour over cake
.. there is two techniques In which u can pour the glaze 1) pour one color into centre of the first color and then pour next color into centre of the SEC color etc Pour over cake 2) pour your colors individually
I do not have a thermometer and used a hint that I found on internet The glaze must not be so hot that it’s going to run off the cake And it must also not be so cold tht it is now thick and can no longer run down the cake
