This glaze can be used to cover the top of a mousse cake.

(Makes enough to cover the top of two 6-inch cake)

  1. Soak gelatine leaves in cold water for about 5 minutes.

  3. Boil puree and sugar in a saucepan.

  5. Cool to room temperature before using to glaze.

I was taught to use this to glaze a mousse cake.
