Silicone brushes are ideal for brushing syrup onto cakes. They are easier to clean than any other type of brush and are practically indestructible. Because the brushes retain odors, reserve a separate one for sweet baking.

A small number 9 sable artist’s paintbrush is the perfect implement for brushing glaze on berries or piping gel on buttercream (as for the candles on the Chocolate Tomato Cake with Mystery Ganache).

The softest possible makeup brush, reserved for this use, is ideal for restoring the shine to Dark Chocolate Lacquer Glaze.
