A Bit Of Lemon Curd With Chocolate Fudge Cake+Ganache?
Baking By kandyslife Updated 12 Mar 2017 , 1:57pm by Zakared
So I love lemon and chocolate. And the idea of combining both makes my mouth water honestly haha!
Has anyone ever tried making a chocolate fudge cake and layering it with chocolate ganache and a drizzle of Lemon curd on top of the ganache and between each layer? So the lemon curd isn't the filling rather a compliment? I dont know it just makes my mouth water picturing it
Has anyone tried this please??
And does anyone have a yummy yummy chocolate fudge recipe link ? :)
I also love lemon and chocolate, but I have to tell you, we are a distinct minority. Generally when someone bites into the lemon cream in a box of chocolates, the reaction is "eww". One other candy is more despised is the orange jelly, and I like that too.
If the cake is for you (or me) then I saw, "YES!"
Never would I ever put those two together. Never heard of this as complimenting each other. I have heard of orange with chocolate. Maybe I am missing something good. Maybe I will have to try this out one day in the future!!
I agree....lemon and chocolate are yucky together for me....i don't like orange either. For me citrus of any kind and chocolate do not pair well....but to each their own!!
I tried similar to what you want....and I like citrus and chocolate...for whatever reason, I didn't like the chocolate cake w/the lemon curd at all...and I didn't use much curd at all. It was the accent. The reaction from others after first bite was more puzzled and "what were you thinking." So I don't do lemon curd with chocolate cake anymore lol.

That's dissappointing :( I was hoping that it would taste good. Visually I thought it sounded amazing but I guess not

I agree I dont like chocolate with orange flavor. However two weeks ago I tried a tart with lemon fillling and Chocolate ganache on top. It tasted amazing so I thought maybe it would taste well in a cake

haha If you do try it please let me know if you liked it. And if you do then welcome to me and Leah_s chocolate with lemon club
I am with the loving chocolate and citrus... chocolate and lemon... chocolate and orange... chocolate and lime... chocolate and grapefruit... BUT... It must be dark chocolate... I'm not a milk chocolate girl anyhow...
I love the chocolates with the citrus centers...
Hey, to tell the truth, I love chocolate with just about anything... lol
Chocolate and Raspberry always goes well together. Try a Raspberry curd. I know it's not citrus, but it can go well together. I also have done a chocolate cake with orange creamsicle buttercream....also a favorite.
I'm not a big fan of citrus and I can't eat chocolate so combining them isn't a thing for me. But then, I think others have a much more cultured palate than me.
