INCREDIBLY QUICK AND EASY LEMON GLAZE FOR ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• Sieve the powdered sugar.It is extremely important to sift your icing sugar well - three times if you have to! There shouldn't be any lumps or granules of powdered sugar, otherwise, it will show in the final texture of your glaze.
• Add the remaining ingredients.Add 3 tablespoons of milk and the lemon juice to the powdered sugar and whisk the ingredients well. You can add more milk to the mixture to help thin the consistency, but 3 tablespoons are a good starting point.Only once you are happy with the consistency should you add the lemon zest. This is also, in our opinion, a crucial addition that will add that extra lemony punch!
• Glaze your cake.You do not need to heat the glaze before pouring it over your angel food cake. You can simply give it a good whisk and pour immediately. This lemon glaze recipe is fantastic because it has a nice thick consistency that will sit beautifully on top of the cake instead of thinning or running down completely.
