We have vegan guests, and I'm fed up with apologising for the poorly

Have you asked them if they care? The chances are if you are
accommodating them in general I think they would be happy with that or
what about asking them?


The main guest is our son in law, and he's perfectly happy with the
vegan glaze. Thinking about it, it's the rest of the family who are
disappointed by it.

See, and they say vegans are 'fussy'! (Well, yes we are, we 'prefer'
our food didn't come with others suffering pain, suffering and death).

I do know a professional baker and I'll ask him if he glazes his vegan
range and if so, what he uses (and get back to you).

Thanks. That would be appreciated.

He replied with something about 'orange' but I'm not sure he
understood the question so I've re-stated it in my reply (we are going
to try some of his sourdough bread and I think he though we wanted it
(vegan) glazed).


OOI, what is the main purpose of the glaze for you as it seems it can
change the flavour and so there are some for sweet and some for
savoury? If it's just the colour, wouldn't that only really be visible
when the loaf is sitting there whole, rather than cut up in slices?

I guess it might be more relevant if you were making rolls etc?
