Hello daisychain

Paul has used Squires’s kitchen edible confectioners glaze:

The glaze is painted on to the surface of the sugarpaste. Paul does say in the video that he would normally use PME clear spray glaze and to be careful with the confectioners glaze as it can cause yellowing.
Paul shows how to use the paint on glaze in the Jimmy Choo cake tutorial, fast forward to the bow here:

This is how PME clear spray glaze looks like:

The container must say clear glaze as this stuff also comes in colours. Follow the spraying instructions on the container as getting too close to the cake while spraying causes runs. Hope this helps.
