NOTES
Chocolate Glaze can be stored in the fridge at +4°C (+39°F) for 7-10 days in an airtight container. This is important because chocolate has a strong ability to absorb odors. The chocolate used in the recipe can be dark, milk, or white without altering the recipe. The white chocolate glaze has an ivory color; I recommend adding titanium dioxide (white powdered dye) for a more pure-white color. Do not use liquid colorants in any case. Unlike cocoa frosting, this glaze is shinier and has a great chocolate flavor.
