This fruit tart glaze is so easy to make and is the best way to get your fruit tart or other tasty dessert to shine!

Have you ever admired the super-shiny fruit tarts you see at the supermarket bake shop? Nestled like colorful jewels in the bakery case among the plainer sugar cookies and lemon squares, they stand out like royalty at a peasants' ball.
