5. In a separate large bowl, beat together the sugar and eggs until smooth. Add the melted butter, instant coffee granules, and vanilla extract and beat until smooth.

Tips:

Use a fine grater to shred the zucchini. This will help the zucchini blend into the batter more easily and evenly.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
Let the bread cool completely before glazing. This will help the glaze set properly.
