Mirror Glazed Cakes Are Absolutely Mesmerizing
Have you made any mirror glazed cakes yet? It’s easier said than done, but after you take a look at these beautiful concoctions, you’ll want to either make or buy one of your own.
Achieving the signature shiny look involves using gelatin in a smooth and liquefied icing mixture. Bakers must hoist the cake up to let the icing drip off. The result is eye-catching and completely unique and contemporary.
Instagram user Olga Noskova has gained a particularly large following from posting her creations. She currently has 611,000 followers, and it’s easy to see why once you take a look at what she conjures up.

It would be almost painful to start cutting into such an artistic cake that’s reflective enough that you can see yourself in it.
Needless to say, some of them look way too good to eat.
This video shows how mesmerizing and satisfying the process can be. It’s hard to not want to reach out and touch the shiny surface or play with the mixture!
