1.White Chocolate Ganache Ingredients

Method
      * Heat cream until just starting to boil.
      * Remove from heat, and add chocolate buttons. Allow to soften for a few minutes.
      * Whisk together until smooth
      * It is at this point you can add your white food colour
      * Allow the ganache to set. If you set in the fridge overnight you will want to return it to room temperature before using it.

         

        Optional but highly recommended to get a lighter smoother ganache.
            * Whizz a bar mix/stick blender through your freshly made ganache ( before you have set it). This will emulsify it and lighten the texture of the ganache.
            Then pour the ganache into a flat oven dish that has been lined with glad wrap or baking paper.
            *Allow to set overnight in the fridge. The following day, remove the dish from the fridge and lift out the set ganache.
            *Cut the ganache into cubes ( like you would butter when softening it for making buttercream) and place in a bowl.
            *Place in the microwave on a low temperature setting ( I set my microwave to approx. 40% powder and it is 1200 watt microwave) and set for short bursts ( 1min at a time) to soften your ganache.
            *Then use your spatula or whisk to bring the ganache back together to a spreadable consistency.
              You are ready to GO!!

              Hints

              *Best results are achieved if ganache is made and then refrigerated 1 day before using.

              *Take ganache out of the fridge and allow it to reach room temperature before trying to spread over cake.

              *If ganache is still too firm, microwave for a few seconds only to soften.
