  • To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If it comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake for a few more minutes.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.
  • The glaze can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. When ready to use, bring the glaze to room temperature before pouring it over the cake.
