This recipe is simply an adaption of 'Cakes StepByStep' YouTube video recipe ( //m.youtube.com/watch?v=5z5VWIBT3tM ). I strongly recommend reviewing the video as it clearly shows how to pour he glaze over a chilled (and buttercream iced) cake.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

The link above didn't work for me, but a quick google helped me find it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5z5VWIBT3tM
looking forward to trying this one out!
Thanks for the recipe. We really can see our faces in the "mirror". I made the rich butter cake from the community the day before which I iced with buttercream icing from the EDC and then refrigerated. I also have the older model TM but it worked fine for me since the instructions were so good and I did watch the video. There is icing left from the overflow of pouring over the cake which I put in a jug in the fridge. Two days later and microwave on 20 seconds on medium to use it again.
We might try to do this with white chocolate (couverture) and then use colours next time.
Thanks again
