Ingredients
  • 6 sheets leaf gelatin
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • ⅔ cup corn syrup or glucose syrup
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 7 ounces good-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
  • Special equipment: immersion blender, optional
Instructions
  1. Cut the gelatin into 1-inch strips and submerge in cool water to soften
  2. Place the white chocolate in a medium-size bowl and set aside
  3. Whisk together the sugar, corn syrup, and ½ cup water in a saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and add in the gelatin (writing out as much excess water as possible). Whisk in the sweetened condensed milk.
  4. Pour the hot mixture of the white chocolate and let it sit undisturbed for 30-seconds
  5. Stir the chocolate until it is completely melted, you may want to use an immersion blender here to expedite the process but be careful of forming air bubbles
  6. If you want to color your mirror glaze, separate it into bowls and add 2-3 drops of gel food coloring until the desired color is reached
  7. Allow the glaze to cool until it reaches 95-96 degrees. While the glaze cools, prep your frozen mousse cake for glazing following the instructions in the following recipe titled Blueberry Lemon Mousse Cake Assembly
