      Helllo Aarthi,

      Appreciate on how you present each of your recipe in a detailed manner. I am impressed to see a variety of sections (Baby, Baking etc) in your blog.

      Quick question on the chocolate glaze. As I was looking for a veg version of glaze for my cake, I saw this recipe of yours.

      Will it have the same effect of glaze without agar agar?

      My Best Wishes
      Aarti

      Hi Aarti,
      YOur blog is the reason I have started baking. Thanks a lot! I hadn’t a query- for all the different frostings you have pasted. Can they all be frozen and used for later if we have made excess? Will it be good?
