Ingredients
Raspberry Glaze Ingredients
- ½ cup raspberries (fresh or frozen) (90g / ~3oz)
- 1 ½ cups icing sugar (powdered sugar) (195g / ~7oz)
- 2-3 teaspoons whole milk
Instructions
- Prepare Icing Sugar: Sift the icing sugar into a medium bowl and set it aside. This helps remove lumps and creates a smooth base for the glaze.
- Puree Raspberries: Blend the raspberries in a small food processor or blender until they become a smooth puree.
- Strain Puree: Press the raspberry puree through a fine strainer into the bowl of icing sugar to remove seeds, ensuring a silky smooth texture.
- Add Milk and Mix: Add half of the milk to the bowl and mix well to combine the ingredients evenly.
- Adjust Consistency: Gradually add the remaining milk a little at a time until you reach your desired glaze consistency. For a thick drizzle like on eclairs, aim for a consistency that takes 8-10 seconds to settle. For a thinner glaze suitable for crullers or donuts, make it thinner so it settles quickly.
- Storage and Use: Use the glaze immediately or cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap for use the following day. If stored, gently heat and stir the glaze before using to loosen it up.
