| 17. | Notes |
| 18. | If you don't use any food coloring they end up a dusty brownish pink which is beautiful in its own way but not in a way that photographs well. |
| 19. | You can play around with the thickness of your glaze by adding milk slowly until you're pleased with the consistency. It will vary slightly based on how you pack your sugar, ambient humidity etc. |
| 20. | This glaze is amazing on basically everything so try it on your next bundt or pound cake. |
