So, since someone posted a picture of a mirror glaze donut in

>>8086368
anal sex

Yup. You can really taste the shine!

>>8086368
I don't know, but that's the sexiest donut I have ever seen.

>>8086368
It's like eating an apple store.

>>8086375
It does resemble a prolapse anus.

>>8086386
This.

i can't imagine the glaze takes any less than 8 months off your lifespan per bite

>>8086368
They taste as good as you let them
I'm sure there are garbage ones that taste like crap because all they wanted was a pretty donut
and I'm equally sure there are amazing ones because if they were to take the time to make it look visually appealing, they would have already had the taste down properly

all in all, taste isn't the main thing that makes those appealing, but even then, they probably taste pretty good
because donuts are generally pretty good

>>8086368
No. Pure sugar and glucose

>>8086418
>>8086421
Is it anything like the coating on candy apples? That's what it looks like, and that would be fucking disgusting.

>>8086421
Wow, sugar AND glucose?

Those bastards. It's like the greedy soda companies use carbonation and pressurized carbon dioxide.

>>8086421
>pure sugar and glucose

Do pretzels taste like pure salt and sodium chloride?

>>8086429

No way. That's too scary sounding to put in pretzels.

>>8086433
>>8086429
The FDA defines "sugar", as an ingredient, as sucrose or a sucrose-based sweetener.

>>8086438
What is glucose then?

>>8086386
Lmao it has hemorrhoids.

>>8086429
>>8086433
Literally retarded

>>8086438
Obviously you're just a moron who still doesn't get it.

Glucose is a type of sugar. It's like saying, "god that meat was filled with fat and lipids!" Still too complicate for you? Would you insist your chocolate milk had too much chocolate and sweetened cocoa?

>>8086445
It's a sugar. Not disputing that.

But "sugar" as a listed ingredient is strictly sucrose. That's why HFCS is technically a sugar, but never listed as "sugar" on packaging.

>>8086448
>>8086438
>glucose isn't a sugar, I swear guys! Look I'll post twice but far enough apart that you'll think someone agrees with me

>>8086451
Your smug superiority is giving me an erection, please continue.

For the record, it's more like saying "This meatloaf contains pork and beef" and then some pedantic fuck like you comes along and screeches about how "IT'S ALL JUST MEAT, IT'S THE SAME THING".

>>8086438
>>8086421
>I swear, when I said "pure sugar and glucose" I meant from the perspective of the FDA

>>8086455
except it literally isn't you fucking retard, pork and beef taste completely different, glucose and sucrose do not

>>8086455
>"This meatloaf contains pork and beef"
You truly are a fucking idiot. Pork is swine. Beef is cattle.

Glucose is a type of sugar. I'll fix your analogy, what you said is like: "This meatloaf contains cow and ground beef!"

>>8086454
>>8086457

I never said that glucose wasn't a sugar lol. You redittors really want not to be confused.

>>8086459
>>8086458
Methanol and ethanol are both alcohol. Does that mean they're literally the same too?

>>8086458
LITERALLY retarded

>>8086460
then why in god's name would you go out of your way to say "glucose and sugar" you neanderthal

>>8086465
you wouldn't consume both methanol and ethanol at the same time (if you weren't being poisoned or aren't retarded), false equivalency
>>8086467
so glucose and sucrose have discernibly different flavors?

>>8086460
>>8086465
https://www.sugar.org/sugar-basics-2/food-labeling/labeling-terms/

FDA doesn't define sugars as sucrose so your lame ass excuse was a lie.

Also, nice false equivalency. We aren't comparing two types of sugar. We're laughing at you for implying glucose wasn't a sugar, like we'd laugh at someone who implied Voda wasn't an alcoholic beverage.

>>8086474
>FDA specifically defines the term sugar whenever it is listed in an ingredient statement. FDA restricts use of the term sugar to sucrose which is obtained from sugar cane or sugar beets. Sugar (sucrose) is included in the term “sugars” listed in the NFP.
did you even read your own link

>>8086478
Sugars vs. sugar.

>>8086479
What?

Of course the FDA doesn't define all sugars as sucrose. Nobody said that, you clown.

>>8086482
Look I'm getting tired of you, you're obviously an idiot so I'm just going to go back to your original complaint of sugar and glucose.

I'll assume you weren't being retarded and instead were being autistic and wanted to use the term sugar like an FDA pencil pusher as a way of saying sucrose. So too much sucrose and glucose.

Okay. Except you're still fucking wrong, retard. Glucose only exists in the blood of animals. It's commonly known as blood sugar. It doesn't exist in pastries.

Once again, kill yourself. And before you fucking try to bring up fructose, that sugar is reserved for fucking plants.

Irony is that when food tastes so good you can't help but close your eyes and let yourself be consumed by your taste senses. Then you're not looking at the food.

I'm afraid not, champ.

>>8086535
No, it is starch. I really don't understand why you can't just admit you're wrong on an anonymous mongolian fletching board.

What you mean to say, I think, is corn syrup. Which we all know is bad for you. Man uses a chemical reactions to isolate glucose then compound it into a powder which can then be made into a syrup.

But calling corn syrup "glucose" and sucrose "sugar" and losing your shit when people don't understand what you meant by terms only you're using is ridiculous. One moment you're using an FDA term, next moment you're not using the FDA term (corn syrup) but using your own term.

This is called autism, and, for one of the few times on this board, I can say without a doubt you have it. Look into it.

>>8086499
You know that's not even really superman, right?
That's some knock-off Indian shit with a fucked up logo.

>>8086547
No, it is not. It's powdered glucose. That's why it's called glucose powder, genius.

>>8086562
>powdered glucose
That's like saying powdered water. Glucose is a molecule. You can't simply just powder molecules.

https://exsugarholic.com/2013/06/30/using-dextrose-glucose-in-cooking-and-baking/
>The full name is dextrose monohydrate and it is a simple sugar generated from the hydrolysis of starch, most commonly corn. The corn starch is treated with naturally occurring enzymes (they same as in our mouths) or acid. There is no way around the fact that this is a processed product, but at least it simulates natural occurrences (when we eat starch, it’s hydrolyzed by enzymes and broken down further by stomach acids to for example dextrose).

Glucose powder is not powdered glucose no more than baking soda is baked soda.

>>8086575
>it is a simple sugar generated from the hydrolysis of starch, most commonly corn. The corn starch is treated with naturally occurring enzymes (they same as in our mouths) or acid
This is literally the process for refining starch into glucose. Powdered glucose is literally glucose. What the fuck is wrong with your brain? You think because it's refined from starch, it's still starch?

>>8086579
The problem is I can't seem to match your own definitions for words. Every time I think I understand how you process things you baffle me by rejecting reality and substituting it with your own.

Glucose powder isn't powdered glucose. Nobody calls corn syrup glucose. Nobody, when saying too much sugar! Means sucrose. Nobody, except you apparently. And all attempts to show you what normal people say or what reality is have failed.

Enjoy your autism. Enjoy your pretzels with too much salt and sodium chloride.

I have no reason to believe mirror cakes and doughnuts taste as good as they appear. The glaze is mostly flavoring and agar. So unless the cake itself tastes good I can't imagine it being not so far off from something the majority of people have tasted before.
I just thought people liked this for the aesthetic, like japanese water cakes even though everyone knows these don't taste like much either but are pretty to look at.

I've never had water cake, but I have had other Japanese agar desserts that were delicious. I don't see why water cake wouldn't also be.

>>8088788
Agar has a different texture than bone gelatin. It''s firmer, and it sort of 'snaps' when you bite it. You might like it. I like both agar and gelatin!

Obviously not. It's just a new technique everyone's excited about, like color changing food or sous vide.

Cake related(I have a big urge to learn dessert recipes). I'm having trouble finding this particular confectionery. It's a sugar/syrup that is often used as decoration. It goes hard so it's often used to make interesting shapes.
I have no idea what it's called.

however, i dont like the process nor do i feel like its in a form that is good for me at all. kind of like high fructose corn syrup. I understand they both came from organic things, but that doesn't mean I'm okay with their byproduct.

Got one from a kiosk in Tokyo Train Station back in april.

Was legitimately one of the best deserts/pastry I have ever had. I think that was more to do with the baker though to be honest. He had non mirror glaze.

Mine was blackberry rum basil. Was awesome. Wish I took a picture.

The former is an aqueous solution of glucose, and the latter is crystalline sucrose.
They should be treated differently, like yolk and albumen.
