Kuan, When I make a glacage for a savoury application I make it by making a tight bechemal,then folding in hollandaise and whipped cream as TBH said.
Kimmies "Glacer" may be more the specific word your looking for as it applyies (I believe)to only the sweet side of the kitchen

Kimmie,
Funny, with all my books I found the definition in a old small book the I love called Le Repertoire De Le Cuisine
Glacer " To colour a dish under a salamader."
So Bingo...thats the word, although like Panini said glacage should work in the menu copy as well.

Ya know when it comes to French, does anyone really know. Every time I have a question about a word, the responce is , yes you can say that ,BUT some say this, AND others say that.
My wife and MIL use French for everyday. My MIL from a Parisian back ground and my FIL from Egyptian background. All three have an opinion when it come to questionable words.
For this one my wife laughed when I asked if the little 5 should be hanging off the C, she said, you know the E takes the place.
I couldn't tell you what should be hanging of where, I understand French but refuse to try to speak or write it.LOL
I love you French speaking people!!!!

Years ago, I used to eat often at Middle Eastern restaurants on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn (NYC). A lot of the places were related, literally -- cousins, uncles, etc. So, very often a dish on one menu would appear on the others. The one thing that always mystified me was something-or-other with "glassage sauce." It took years and years to figure out they meant glacage (yes, Panini, with the little 5, aka ce'dille, hanging off the c).

Panini:
The little 5, or cedille (sp), indicates that the the character "C" off of which it hangs is pronounced as an "S". Otherwise in French, the "C" is pronounced like a "K" when followed by "A", "O" or "U". In this context the "c" in glacage would have a cedille appended to it.
