Hi everyone! I've been trying my hand at baking lately and I'm absolutely stumped when it comes to getting that perfect consistency for powdered sugar glaze. Do you have any tried-and-true tips you'd be willing to share? I'm all ears and eager to learn!

For a perfect powdered sugar glaze, aim for a thick but pourable consistency. Start with a 1:1 ratio of powdered sugar to liquid (like milk or lemon juice) and adjust as needed. If it’s too thick, add a tiny bit more liquid; if too thin, add more powdered sugar. For added shine, a touch of corn syrup can help. Happy baking!

Totally! For the perfect powdered sugar glaze, start with a small amount of liquid (like milk or lemon juice) and gradually add it to your sugar. Aim for a smooth, pourable consistency that coats the back of a spoon. If it’s too thick, add a bit more liquid. Happy glazing!
