Critical Success Points
- • Initial baking (step 10) – check the centre doneness and colour.
- • Glaze and set the icing (step 12) – the 20‑second time is crucial to avoid burning the glaze.
Safety Warnings
- • Handle the hot oven (180 °C then 220 °C) with kitchen gloves.
- • The boiling glaze liquid can cause burns; pour it away from you.
- • Use a fine knife carefully to detach the rings.
