How long does it take for the glaze to fully harden to package it up? They look great and you are good at explaining things.

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I let mine dry over night and they are ready to package in the morning. I’d say 8-10 hours

@@thatshowicookiecoach8266 can glaze icing go in a dehydrator?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

@@anitasoto7843 Great question I do not use a dehydrator, but I don't see why not!. Are you on facebook? there is a group called Strictly Glaze that you could check out and see if anyone in there uses a dehydrator!

My dear I didnt get the milk measurement clear ,is it 1 cup + 1tbsp or is it 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp

[@nikkyram6165]

It’s 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp milk

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

1/4c+1tbs. But can be adjusted as need but to get your desired consistency

So I tried your glaze & it was a game changer! I got all my bubble circle cookies flooded in literally a fraction of the time it would take me to flood using RI & bags, Love it, THANK YOU!!!

wat is the shelf life of this glaze pls. tia

[@ctvcvg1721]

Love this recipe. But I have a question. Is it possible to save the glaze to use another day again? Or do you use everything you make on the same day?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I refrigerate it and use it within a week!

[@mshjackson1]

Can I swap vanilla to another flavor or should I split the difference or just don't do it? How long can these stay on the counter for before I need to freeze or toss? And would the flavor change if I replaced the milk with water? Sorry for all the questions. You did an amazing job teaching this! I've been scared to try this for months but you make it look so easy.

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

Yes you can play with different flavorings. I might start by splitting the difference like you mentioned. My cookies are good in an air tight container for a few days if I now we aren’t going to eat them for more than a week I freeze them

[@deanamann9120]

What are the reasons to use a glaze icing over or versus a royal icing?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I prefer the taste and texture! It’s much softer than royal. It dries well enough to stack but not hard to bite into.

[@janniec4581]

Love your video. I've been decorating for about a year and never heard of glazing, but I think I'm going to love it. I will be trying it soon! Where did you get those little white bowls? They look like the perfect size to mix icing. Thank You!!

[@hannahplata8230]

Hi! Can I use this as glaze for my donuts? Or it would be too hard after it has already set?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

This doesn’t dry hard so I would think it would work!!

[@Fridskan]

If you weigh the sugar, then you know how much to use next time. Weight is not affected if the sugar is compacted or not.

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

TRUE! I will have to do an updated recipe with weights! I guess I just thought cups would be easier for the majority of people...

[@AkilahOsa]

This was amazing and so relaxing to watch. 😊😋👍

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

THANK YOU!!!

[@anitak8056]

How long will it take for the glaze to dry? Will it dry like Royal Icing so they can be stacked, please?

[@barbk1011]

I make a glaze icing with corn syrup and after about 10 hours they can be stacked.

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

The glaze will dry 8-10 hours I typically do over night. They will be able to stack but still have a soft bite!

[@SgtUSMC]

Thank you for this great video!

[@ligiasouza3202]

bom diaaa! muito bom o seu glacê.muito obrigada. 👍👍💖👏👏

[@Droosmom1970]

You don’t sift your powdered sugar?? I have to sift or my icing ends up with lumps that get stuck in the hole of the zipper bag. I only use zipper bags too. But it’s getting harder to find baggies that don’t have expandable bottoms.

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I do not sift🤷‍♀️. Also I recently changed to tipless icing bags from the cookie countess and I don’t know why I waited so long! Give it a whirl I don’t think you’ll be disappointed!

[@monekmarianna]

They are beautiful! I work with royal icing, and now would like to try the glaze... Does the surface remain shiny after drying?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

It does turn a bit more matte- but the corn syrup helps it keep some shine!

[@Hani-ip2im]

Hi this is hani . Love ur video Really easy to understand. How to store the cookie and what is the shelf time for these type of cookies.🙂

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

Hi Hani! In a airtight container at room temperature I would say about a week before they start to dry out. I have a heat sealer and seal my cookies individually for customers then they are good for about 3-4 weeks!

[@ilanarosenberg4074]

Can your glaze icing recipe be possible for decorating or icing droughts?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I would think so! Just thin it out a bit more

[@nanasbaby96]

Beautiful ♥️

[@areesomrat8292]

What can we use instead of corn syrup?.. and what does it do? Your work is beautiful by the way, I love it. 😍

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I have heard some people use glycerin, but I haven’t tried it myself

[@barbk1011]

Corn Syrup makes it nice and shiny, like Royal Icing. I haven't used glycerin myself, but I've also read that people use it instead of Corn Syrup. Oh, and some people use honey. I've only used corn syrup.

[@GeminiiBaby]

Isn’t this basically Royal icing without the meringue powder! Will it taste the same? I’m still learning, so debating if I should try this method.

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

Yes it is very similar to Royal minus the meringue powder. It will taste similar but I do notice a taste difference. I personally prefer the glaze.

[@ilanarosenberg4074]

Can your glaze icing recipe be possible for decorating or icing donuts?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I would think so! Just maybe make it a little thinner!

[@maryannwagner6408]

What is that little tool that you use for spreading the glaze? Where do you get it?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

[@chowthetabs]

Ive been using my own gkaze recipe for more than a year now, It's powdered sugar, water, vanilla extract, coloringa and Its given me no troubles except of recently..I let my cookies sit out to dry for a few hours, then the rest of the drying in my oven with the door open and by the morning it's not dry. Also, the icing forms a "wave", the texture isnt smooth and looks wavy. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. The waves started forming even when they were drying out in the open! I Make sure to flood tge cookies evenly too.

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

2 things that I have heard can cause those waves: 1) humidity and 2) low circulation. Not sure if if was unusually humid this day it sounds like they were not in a closed container so circulation should have been fine….

[@chowthetabs]

@@thatshowicookiecoach8266 Oh okay! I have a fan but it only blows hot air 😳, I have heard of putting cookies into dehydrators which are 120degees F plus I think, would that work for glaze cookies to put near a hotish fan? Thankyou😌

Thank you! I have been trying to get the glaze down and I'm struggling but your tutorial was very helpful and now I feel like I got a better understanding of the consistency.

Yes consistency is the hardest thing to master and makes the biggest difference in the look of your cookies! I actually have been playing with it myself. I have been doing about a 7 second flood lately

Do cookies just sit out till glaze hardens? Or go in the fridge, or?…..

They sit out. Typically 8-10 hours or overnight. Then I package them up to seal in moisture

[@danamaul4412]

Thank you for your awesome explanation. I’m making cookies for a baby shower that will be outside in August. Will the glaze hold up to the heat? Nice to know they will last three weeks heat sealed. Do you freeze them after you seal or leave them out. Switching to this method from Royal icing, so I’m trying to figure it out. I will practice a lot before hand. Thanks again!

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

I have had a lot of luck freezing. You may want to do a test batch to make sure yours freeze well. If I know ahead of time they won’t be eaten for several days I will freeze!

[@harlijohnson7080]

Do you have a problem with cratering using the glaze?

Not for large spaces, sometimes for smaller spaces I do, but I have learned to just use thicker consistency icing and it usually doesn’t crater!

Correct it isn’t as hard to bite into! I freeE mine often (but would suggest testing before your big day!). I place them in a single layer in freeEe zip bags or heat seal them, then place that into an airtight container in the freezer. The evening before I need them I take the whole container out and put it on the counter - don’t open! By morning they are ready to go!!

In royal icing corn syrup is not necessary but it does give a glossy appearance as well as a more tender bite when the icing is dry. I have experimented with glaze icing but the only difference I see is using milk instead of water and Meringue powder.

If I add milk rather than water do they need to be refrigerated?

[@thatshowicookiecoach8266]

No they do not😁

[@wecookiers]

@Shannon Ala This is a common question. It's called crenation. Because of its density, sugar takes moisture from milk and extracts fluid from bacteria. Therefore, the bacteria dies, triggering osmosis. You see, microbes can only survive with adequate moisture. Sugar acts as a vacuum and sucks that moisture out. Hope that helps!

[@lorigoedken8149]

So it is shelf stable even with milk? No refrigeration needed? I am a cottage baker.
