A glaze with a viscosity ranging between 170 and 650 cP, less than 20% sugar, and less than 4% salt, is applied onto an uncooked dough product during a continuous process in the production of baked snack foods. The glaze maintains its form as a liquid free of solids at room temperatures despite the presence of over 15% sugar. The glaze is applied onto a dough the glazed product is then baked, forming a glazed baked snack food product having at least 5% of a smooth, shiny glaze on a surface of the snack food product.
