Recipe's preparation

    This recipe is simply an adaption of 'Cakes StepByStep' YouTube video recipe ( //m.youtube.com/watch?v=5z5VWIBT3tM ). I strongly recommend reviewing the video as it clearly shows how to pour he glaze over a chilled (and buttercream iced) cake.

  1. 1. Place gelatin into a bowl and cover with chilled water, as per packets instructions. Set aside.

    2. Place 125 grams of water and 225 grams of white sugar into Thermomix and mix 5 minutes / 105 degrees / speed 1.Cook until temperature reaches 105 degrees. Mine only took 5 minutes but times are likely to vary.  

    3. Once mixture has reached 105 degrees stop Thermomix. Add 150 grams of dark chocolate and mix 1 minute / no temperature / speed 2. 

    4. Add 30 grams of sifted cocoa. Mix 1 minute / no temperature / speed 2. 

    5. Add 65 grams of Thickened cream. Mix 1 minute / no temperature / speed 2.

    6. Wait until mixture reaches 60 degrees. Once Thermomix determines mixture is 60 degrees, squeeze excess water from gelatin sheets with your hands and add to Thermomix. 

    7. Mix 1 minute / no temperature / speed 2. 

    8. Strain mixture into separate bowl and tip back into Thermomix jug (or directly into a second Thermomix jug, if you're lucky).

    9. Blend mixture 1 minute / no temperature / speed 7. 

    10. Again - strain mixture into separate bowl and tip back into Thermomix jug (or directly into a second Thermomix jug, if you're lucky).

    11. Allow to cool to

    Thanks for the recipe. We really can see our faces in the "mirror". I made the rich butter cake from the community the day before which I iced with buttercream icing from the EDC and then refrigerated. I also have the older model TM but it worked fine for me since the instructions were so good and I did watch the video. There is icing left from the overflow of pouring over the cake which I put in a jug in the fridge. Two days later and microwave on 20 seconds on medium to use it again.

    We might try to do this with white chocolate (couverture) and then use colours next time.

    Thanks again
