making a clear mirror cake can be a little tricky, but it's definitely worth it! Here's a quick rundown of the steps:

1. Start by preparing your cake base. You can use any flavor you like, but make sure it's a light color so that the mirror glaze will show up well. Bake and let it cool completely.

2. Next, prepare your mirror glaze. You'll need gelatin, white chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and food coloring. Heat the gelatin in water until it dissolves, then mix it with the chocolate and condensed milk. Add food coloring until you get the desired color.

3. Place your cooled cake on a wire rack over a baking sheet to catch drips. Pour the glaze over the cake, making sure it covers the entire surface. You may need to use a spatula to spread it evenly.

4. Let the glaze set for a few minutes, then use a spatula to smooth out any bumps or imperfections.

5. Transfer the cake to a serving plate and let it chill in the refrigerator until the glaze is completely set.

And that's it! You should have a beautiful, shiny mirror cake that's ready to impress your friends and family.
