| | caramel glaze recipe TIA
THE RECIPE DOES LOOK ODD, BUT IT DOES WORK WELL. I HAVE USED IT TO GLAZE CAKES & TOPS OF MOUSSE CAKES. AND IT DOES "RE-WARM" WELL

PJM333 how long have you been a professional pastry chef? Would you mind telling us what kind/where of work you do, just a little non-invasive bio to become more familar? I'm always curious....and hoping to learn from others. I'm delighted to see someone like yourself posting here. I hope you'll hang out for a while!
