    Warm the cream with the split and scraped vanilla and then slowly combine with the chocolate.

    Store at 40°F (4°C) for 12 hours before use.
    Use at 85-105°F (30-40°C).

    Tip: It is very important to emulsify the mixture. When ready to use, melt the glaze in the microwave to remove any bubbles. This way, the glaze will maintain its supple, glossy texture for 48 to 72 hours after defrosting or use.
