I am so grateful for this video!! I have been making this amazing bundt cake all year but the glaze has been a thorn in my side! I’ve tried so many different glazes and each one got sucked directly into this super moist cake! But now, thanks to this video, it’s perfect! A million thanks!!

Made this today but with lemon juice instead of water came out absolutely perfect!!! Thank you for posting this

The key is to make sure cake is cool. That’s not a glaze, that’s icing the cake. A glaze should be pourable, and use clear vanilla, or almond flavor to maintain whiteness.

PERFECTION. So beautiful, and cannot wait to try this. I’ll use a knob of butter instead of the oil, for flavor.

Omgee the most perfect glaze! Everyone asks what's my secret, and it definitely stays white ... Thanks again! I've been using this since last Thanksgiving and it's the best! 😁

[barywilliams]

Thank you! This is what I want for my cinnamon rolls. Nice and thick!

[lene]

Oh my god thank you. This is so amazing. I can’t wait to try this out

[tonyayoung]

My customers love this glaze I have perfected it, it's definitely not as thick tho, it will not disappear into the cake when u get it thinner, just Make sure the cake is completely cooled off, everyone is asking me how I get it so thick and pretty... thanks for sharing! I will never use anything else from now on!😊

Thank you. My grown daughter is always pushing me to re-invent some type of dessert. For her upcoming birthday she wants a pumpkin spice cake that’s cooked in a Bundt pan but she also wants real cream cheese icing that “tastes very cream cheesy” on it. I explained that you don’t frost a Bundt cake. So then she tells me that Nothing Bundt Cakes does it. Argggg I even make my own birthday cakes because I can and they’re always from scratch too. So buying cake doesn’t work for me. I just can’t do it. Lol.
I looked into making the cake as a layer cake. But she wants it in Bundt form. I did just find the video on here where the show goes they ice their Bundt cakes. But I really don’t like that look at all. Kind of ‘dead octopus’ instead of flower to me. I don’t like those ends to the tubes (petals).
I’m doing a test run tonight and with a little help to keep the icing very cream cheese tasting I’ve got LorAnn icing flavoring. I’m going to try your method tonight and I don’t see why it won’t work (even if I end up needing a hair dryer to heat it up so it’ll drip down better. Thank you so much for this video!
