Just eaten an iced bun that was bought at about lunchtime today, the icing on it seemed to be going transparent, I can't think of a single reason why it should, but I have noticed it before, scoobynet is such a useful tool, I thought I'd ask!!

Cheers.

Ron.

The poor baker's obviously not getting enough zinc in his diet.

Hard to say as it's just an icing sugar/water mix. Must be something to do with them using grain sugar to bulk it out. Castor sugar will form a clear glaze mixed with water, unlike icing sugar which turns white as it's a very fine powder.

Used to be a baker in a former life
