Glaze for eclairs

Traditional French eclairs are impossible to imagine without chocolate glaze. It can cover the choux pastries completely or only partly - as you like. This glaze can be used not only for eclairs, but also for other baked goods. To make it shine, you will need butter.

Glaze for eclairs - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use erythritol or a powdered monk fruit sweetener as a low-carb alternative. Keep in mind that texture and sweetness may vary slightly compared to traditional powdered sugar.
The glaze can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat gently in short bursts in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of milk to restore smoothness.
Absolutely! Swap milk for almond or oat milk, use vegan butter instead of regular butter, and ensure your powdered sugar is vegan (some brands process it with bone char).
If too thick, whisk in a teaspoon of warm milk at a time. If too thin, let it cool slightly or mix in a bit more sifted cocoa or powdered sugar until desired consistency is reached.
Freezing isn’t recommended, as it may separate when thawed. Instead, store it in the fridge and reheat as needed for best results.
This glaze works well on donuts, cakes, profiteroles, or even as a drizzle over ice cream. Adjust thickness with milk if needed for different textures.
Yes! A dash of vanilla extract or a teaspoon of instant espresso powder enhances the chocolate flavor. Stir in after removing the glaze from heat.
For a glossier finish, add 1/2 teaspoon of light corn syrup or honey along with the butter and mix until smooth.
