Method

Sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let sit until softened. Place the gelatin mixture over a bain-marie and heat until dissolved. Do not overheat.
Stir in the simple syrup and the currant puree and use as soon as the glaze shows signs of thickening. Should the glaze thicken too much before it can be applied, reheat to ensure a smooth surface on the cakes.</
