Ganache is a mix of white chocolate, cream and butter in different proportions. Such a mass has a dense texture and perfectly holds its shape, and these are excellent qualities for a cream when it comes to leveling the cake. As a rule, after assembling the cakes, the final appearance of the cake has errors, and with the help of ganache, you can bring the product to an ideal shape. The layer of such a cream retains the specified thickness and does not flow.
Ingredients
Cooking process
Now put the bowl in a water bath and heat the contents with frequent stirring. You need to melt the pieces of chocolate in the cream. Alternatively, instead of a water bath, you can use a microwave, heating the contents of the bowl in it at intervals of fifteen to twenty seconds. After each heating, knead the mass thoroughly to ensure uniform melting.
Next, let the cream cool to room temperature and place it in the refrigerator to stabilize. You can leave the cream in a bowl, covered with cling film in contact. And you can immediately transfer it to a pastry bag and cool it already in it. We keep the ganache in the cold for at least three to four hours. Before using, we take it out of the refrigerator and leave it at room temperature for half an hour - you get an ideal pliable consistency to comfortably apply the cream to the surface of the cake. If the cream is in a pastry bag, then it is very convenient to deposit it on the surface of the cake, observing the required thickness of the coating - then it remains to level the layer with spatula.
Bon Appetit!
