on the day after valentines day, hector’s take on ROSE’S heavenly CAKES: Zach’s La Bomba (page 285), molded on a silicone cupcake pan, rose shape. the lacquer glaze is heated to 95 oF, so it lays near translucent on the rose petal tips. after pouring the glaze, use a cold air hair drier to blow at the rose centers, to further thin the lacquer glaze at the petal tips.
the way i apply the lacquer glaze defeats the concept of ‘lacquer.’ this is hector’s take.
They do look lacquered to me! Beautiful H! And Happy Valentine’s day to you!
thx J! yes, the rose pattern worked well to catch the glaze.

Nice effect on the rose, reminds me of ceramic glazing.
