Cinnamon Coffee Cake Glaze

teas.co.uk · 10 min · Tops 1 loaf cake or 8 fairy cakes

You'll need

• 1 Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce Latte sachet (24g)
• 30ml freshly drawn water, brought to a rolling boil then left for 1 minute to drop to about 90C
• 200g icing sugar, sifted
• 30ml double cream
• 1 freshly baked 900g loaf cake on a cooling rack (vanilla, cinnamon or Madeira)
• 1 small heatproof mug
• 1 medium mixing bowl
• 1 medium balloon whisk
• 1 small pouring jug

Method

1. Dissolve the sachet in 30ml of hot water in a mug.
2. Sift the icing sugar into a bowl, then whisk in the dissolved coffee and the cream until smooth and glossy.
3. Sit your cake on a rack over a tray to catch the drips.
4. Let the glaze cool for a couple of minutes, then drizzle it over the cake in slow circles.
5. Leave it to set firm for about an hour before slicing.
6. Cool the glaze slightly before pouring; too warm and it runs straight off instead of coating.
