What strength gelatin is that?
It’s bloom 230!
@@PastryLivingwithAya how many gelatin sheets is 18 g on your recipe
I think it's 6 sheets
I hope you liked it and it was helpful for you! Thank you for watching🙏🍫🌹
This is outstanding and professional in every way!! Thank you immensely for this video. ❤️
Looks amazing. Really liked the tips at the end and I actually also learned something new about the different blooms Thanks!!!
Just made this glaze and it was easy and turned out great! Thank you for this great video and the recipe, it's a keeper for sure!
I’m glad you liked it! Thank you.
I always look forward to the ending for her daughter to try the desserts..she’s the cutest! 🥰
Aww thank you😊❤️
Great video. Today I tested out a newly to decorate my yearly Christmas cookies. I usually make sugar cookies and decorate them a basic butter cream which is colored in various colors. Today I poured different colored mirror glazes on them and also tried multiple colors on some. It turned to be as time consuming as using a buttercream frosting but the mirror looked great. I had to handle the cookies carefully since the glaze is soft. So my next step is figure how I will box them.
I did use a piping bag to add some names and other embellishments to the cookies.
Thank you❤ I can’t wait to use this soon!
Thank you for the recipe chef😊😘
I loved that tutorial, thanks 😊
Always clear explanation and video, thank you for your generosity

Love watching passionate people making beautiful desserts...You have a wonderful accent too.
I want to try making mirror glaze like this for a suprise cake for my wife...this looks amazing.
I'm thinking of creating a larger 8inch vanilla cake, with an intense strawberry gel & piped swiss vanilla buttercream on all 2 layers.then chocolate mirror glaze & decorate with half dipped chocolate fresh strawberry, will throw on a few nibs & candied almond dust
Looks amazing, the talent definitely shines through in your videos. Thank you for sharing this with us :)

Does it remains same after keeping in fridge?
Lovely! Aya, you are the first one who does not use corn syrup or glucose syrup in making mirror glaze.
Also, thank you for clearly explain about the gelatin sheet. I purchased some out of watching youtube but could not understand the difference or have knowledge on how much to use. Waiting for the right info to come and here it is. You make a difference ! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 🙏🙏🙏

Very useful. Waiting for chocolate ganache tutorial 😍
Such a great turorial, thank you! First time trying a mirror glaze and I'm so pleased with it. Can the temaining glaze be frozen? Thank you 😊
Hola aya.. saludos desde Venezuela.. admiro mucho tu trabajo.. me gustaría saber si la gelatina en polvo se usaría en la misma proporción... Y también cómo conservar el glaseado
I love you Chanel.
I have a question: May this mirror glaze be used for no frozen desserts, like for instead to glaze eclairs?
Nice ❤
Hi Ana! Thank you for the recipe. I have a question, I tried to decorate the cake with Swiss Buttercream after glazing it and the buttercream keeps sliding off. Is there any way to fix this? Thank you! 👍
Hi, thank you for this recipe. Hope to try it soon. However it is difficult to get the gelatin sheets in my country. Whats the ratio of the gelatin powder to use please?
Amazing
Hi Aya, love your video so much. if I use gelatin powder how many in need?
Do you have to keep it in the refrigerator? How long does it keep for? Thank you 🍫
Lindo seu trabalho e arte ❤. Por favor, como fazer este bolo ou mousse de chocolate resistente?
great video!
Thank you!
Very nice little chocolate cakes u make, I love the decoration idea it looks cute Thanks for sharing the recipe 👌🏻
Thank you😊❤️
@@PastryLivingwithAyacan i use all purpose cream instead of whipping cream?
Really nice
Thank you!
Hi Aya . Thankyou struggling to get right on glaze but never worked out.Will try your way .Thanks heaps.Amazing One
Hope you’ll like it!
Looks so yum😋
Thank you! 😋
@@PastryLivingwithAya 🤗
Hi Aya, thank you for this video :) How many 9 inch (2 layer) cakes will these measurements glaze?
Thanks 🙏🏻
You’re welcome 😊
Hi Anya, thank you for the video. I am planning to make petit four for my niece’s wedding shower. Can you tell me the glaze is touchable after it cooled down. I don’t want the quests got it all over their fingers and touch anywhere in the house with their hand. Also can you tell me where did you buy the 6 tiered cake stand at your background.
جميلة جدا صدقتى العزيزة تسلم ايدك
I have used Bakers chocolate for mirror glazes, but never cocoa powder! This seems much easier than using chocolate bars. I’m doing a caramel mousse cake with a caramelized pretzel filling, and am going to cover it with this glaze. Thank you for this recipe 😊
It'll be great with caramel mousse😋 YUM!
JoyousCookingCo I totally agree. This is so much easier than using chocolate bars. We're able to make a delicious glaze and with the current grocery prices, using cocoa powder is easier on the grocery bill. Thank you Aya for this wonderful tutorial. I've just discovered your wonderful channel and luv it so much. Happy Holidays to you and everyone's families.
Looks amazing, if I use fish Gelatin powder how much water do I need to use?
Excellent video...if i wants to use powder gelatin how much do i use in this recipe..?
Thank you! You can use the same amount of gelatin: 19g of gelatin powder hydrated in 4-5 times amount of cold water. (It usually say how much water you should add in the package of gelatin powder but usually it’s around 4-5 times).
I recommend to make with 19g and see if you like the softness and add more next time if you want! It is probably slightly softer with gelatin powder but I think it should not be a big problem!
Hi Aya we need a video in the different types of cocoa and how to tell quality. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Thank you!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ رائعة
Extremely beautiful! It’s okay to put fresh flowers touching your cakes?
Hi Anya, your glaze are perfect. I want to ask a question. I'm going to make a chocolate cake with chocolate mousse chocolate glaze.. If I store in the fridge the glaze shining part will gone?
I would love if you could make a video on essential kitchen equipment, tools, and ingredients!
Thank you for the request! Would love to!!
Hi Aya, thanks for sharing your recipe and great video. I made your glaze and it is fantastic to use. I have a question in regards of left overs , I keep it in fridge , but if I want to re use it , should I just re heat to boiling then cool down to 40 c ? Thanks !
The liquids can get evaporated slightly more than we want if you boil, so you can cook slowly and stop right after its melted. Or I like to heat up with a microwave in a microwave safe air tight container. When I don’t have a microwave, I place the container in a hot/warm water in a huge pod and let it melt slowly. Hope that helps!
Hi Aya, thank-you for this recipe, can you please give an equivalent quantity of gelatin if iam using powder instead of sheets???
Congratulations!!!
Thanks😁
Hi chef Aya...I want to ask that we can directly add the cream or should boil it first?
Hi Aya! Can I use milk instead of heavy cream? Thank you.
To replace the gelatine sheet with powder, do so use the same 19g?
Is this enough to cover a 3-layer [8" cake]? Thanks Aya!!😄
these look great! I've made a mirror glaze cake twice but with white chocolate and the gelatin powder. I really want to try the sheets now! Are the roses edible? I didn't know they were but I guess they probably are or you wouldn't be feeding them to your kid. lol Great job!
Hi chef..if i use gelatin powder..how many grams?thank u
Hi chef, how to store the excess glaze? Just keep in freeze and reheat it when we want to use it?
I was so excited to see this video because after watching your chocolate mousse recipe I really wanted to use it in the pretty mousse cakes I’ve been seeing & I knew yours would be delicious! I looked at the recipe but I’m confused on how much gelatin to use. I ordered from your link. Does it take the entire package? I thought you used 3 sheets but then it looked like more. Thank you for all the wonderful recipes & videos you share 💕
Thank you!🙏 Great😊 I used about 9 sheets this time for 19g but I recommend to scale just in case! One package comes with 20 sheets.
@@PastryLivingwithAya Thank You. I’m going to make these for my sisters for Valentines Day!
Do you think this would work using stevia or erythritol?
Hi Aya this recipe is so nice but do you think this gelatine is to much for glaze
Thank you so much for the recipe. May I ask, if I m using gelatine powder, what should be the recommended measurement that is equivalent to the gelatine sheets used in this recipe? I look forward to your replies as I m baking a BD cake for myself 😀
12g powder gelatine = 3 teaspoon powder gelatine= 4 leaves of gelatine. Happy birthday Alan , I hope it is a wonderful day for you!
Do you add the gelatin powder directly into the chocolate, or do you add it in water and then put the mixture into the chocolate?
@@sleepingbeautyblue you need to “bloom” the gelatine first, that’s you add it to the water first.
@@zeldanah9579 how much waiter for the three teaspoons?
Can’t wait to try this! Can you tell me where you found the disks you served these on?
I think I bought it on Amazon!
Hi I like recipe
Hi Aya l love your recipes
Thank you so much 😊
When you put the gelatine,did you put the pan again on the heat or not?
Hey Aya, thanks for the excellent recipe.
May I know, what to use for the base of mousse cake? And for how long you freeze the mousse?
The base of mousse cake? You can use any mousse you want. I made chocolate mousse tutorial before, so check it out if you are interested. And I usually like to freeze the mousse all the way before pouring the glaze, it’s easier for me!
How do you reuse your glaze, should it be heated, and how many times can it be stored and re-used?
You can keep it in the refrigerator ,then in a double boiler warm it,let it cool down room temp like 30c and start glazing
I have the same question ,how can I use gelatin powder.and how much,thank you.
Do you have a video on how to make the little cakes? They look beautiful. I am going to give it a try. Thank you
I don’t think I have but I may showed e footage in the chocolate mousse video. It’s a same recipe ;)
Perfect 👌 could you please show coloured mirror glaze as well please 🙏
Thank you! I definitely should! Thank you for the suggestion :)
Beautiful!!!
Why scrape the top of each cake? Why not just leave it?
I've been thinking of ways to make a chocolate mirror glaze for a variety of reasons. Once again, a video that provides a solution to something I've been puzzling over on and off for a while.
I’m glad it solved the puzzle!😊 Thank you for watching❤️
can i change the heavy cream with use cooking cream?
Does it have to be unflavoured gelatine? Or can I use a different flavoured gelatine
If i dont have sheet gelatine, can i substitute powdered gelatin?
Love this. Glad to find a mirror glaze recipe without actual chocolate. Makes it an affordable option. I bake professionally, but in a small town where the locals don't have a lot of money. And our ingredients super expensive. So minus chocolate is a blessing. Any chance that there's a white/coloured version??? 🤣😂🤣
Great!😊 I’m hoping to do the white mirror glaze version in my channel!
This looks amazing..will have to try
Thank you!!
Wow..this is great...can I use whipping cream instead of heavy cream
Thank you😊 Yes!
The mirror glaze turned out great! Thanks for the recipe. Can I freeze the rest that I haven't used?
Awesome!! Yes, you can ;) In an air tight container.
@@PastryLivingwithAya thank you!
Hi. What type of cake you use for glaze mirror?
Does this work with a vegetarian substitute for the gelatine? Like veggie gel /agar agar xx
Vere good
Thank you!!
Aya, i know this is an old video but at 8:42 when you cut into the cake it looks like there is base layer that is below the mousse. Is it a cake or a cookie base? Planning to make this dessert for Valentines 💝
Hi can we use galetin powder ? N how
Is there any substitute for geletin on this recipe
Hi aya may i knw cocoa powder or dutche process cocoa powder?
Aya, may I ask did you use about 11 sheets of Platinum? Seems a lot but want to check. Pkg I got has 20 sheets and its 34 gm. Your recipe calls for 19gm. It's 1.7 g each sheet? Pls confirm that it's 11 sheets. Thanks
What is the measurement if using a powdered gelatin?
