Critical Success Points

  • Infusing milk with vanilla beans
  • Whipping egg whites to stiff peaks
  • Folding the whites gently to retain air

  • Achieving the right glaze consistency

Safety Warnings

  • Hot syrup can cause burns – handle with care.
  • Use oven mitts when handling the hot cake pan.
