Tips on easy chocolate glaze

Should donuts be cooled earlier than glazing?

Always ensure donuts are cool earlier than you glaze them. Otherwise the icing will soften into the crust and make the donut soggy. If you are the use of sprinkles or different toppings, observe them whilst the glaze is moist so that they adhere. Once you are done, allow the glaze set till it is dry, approximately 30 minutes. 

What should you always do before glazing? 

Glazes must balance the three basic materials: silica, alumina, and flux. Excessive flow causes the glaze to run off and tends to create an altered texture on the surface. The texture may also range from glossy, where the glass is calibrated, to matte where the flux oxides may also form visible, agglomerated crystals.

How do you install a donut glaze?

Agar stabilizes the icing and prevents the sugar coating from sticking to the coating. An ideal icing stabilizer was prepared by adding 0.4 to 0.6% surface active agent to an agar phase of 1.2 to 2.4% agar. For donut glaze, 0.5 to 1.0% agar is used depending on the amount of sugar required.
