By mixing equal parts or corn syrup and you make a little bit of a glaze paste. The glaze is then applied to the fondant with a brush, and when the vodka evaporates, all that is left is the corn syrup, making the fondant look shiny. This glaze is great for when you want to add a "wet look" effect on any cake or cupcake. The alcohol will not affect you in any way and it is completely flavorless.
