White Chocolate Ganache Under Fondant
Decorating By AnnieCahill Updated 18 Feb 2013 , 6:26pm by Spooky_789
I need to simply cover an 8" cake with white chocolate ganache. Most of the recipes/ratios I've seen are for larger batches of ganache. Can anyone suggest how many ounces of chocolate and cream I would need to ice the cake with? I am filling with buttercream so it just needs to be enough to cover the outside. I will most likely be using bar chocolate because I'm not big on using chips for ganache, but I have never made white chocolate ganache so I am open to any suggestions.
Thanks!
I couldn't find a lot info on this but I just read someone used about 8 oz of chocolate for covering an 8 inch cake.so you need 2.6 oz of cream to make the ganache. I always make larger batch and freeze the rest.
This is called white chocolate butter cream, but it's really white whipped ganache...and it's a fabulous recipe!!! Just double the recipe :) I've covered a ten inch cake with it.
You're welcome! I've saved the calculator for future use as I've asked this question before and no one ever had an answer so I had to wing it. Love it when folks create something and are willing to share with others.
