- Warning: LOTS of talking. But this tutorial is quite literally, everything you need to know about making chocolate ganache. Ganache is a delicious chocolatey spreadable filling which is perfect for cakes, macarons and desserts but it can easily go wrong!
Hopefully after this masterclass you will leave feeling educated in how ganache is made, how it works, what to avoid doing and how you can use it in different ways when decorating a cake.
Enjoy!
In this video I use 38% cream and Callebaut chocolate 54.5% found here: amzn.to/3pgpN8f

Fantastic tutorial!! Beautiful cake and great tips!! Thank you
What a fun cake! TY for the ganache lesson. Lots of things can go wrong. Very enlightening. Absolutely love those mushrooms!
Yay!! Thankyou so much for this tutorial Georgia 💖
Absolutely love this explanation! Fully explained so I can remember how to make ganache without a recipe in the future!
I would love to see you do whipped ganache! I can't seem to make it work!
Amazing explanation about ganache. This video was really very useful. Thanks a lot😘
Yessss, i've been waiting for this, thanks for all the tutorials Georgia💖💖
Great tutorial. Thank you Georgia!
What a beautiful cake! I love it! The way you created the tree stump was masterful! And your little mushrooms are *darling*! I love the colors you chose! Thank you for sharing this tutorial with us! 💕
Ganache Genius! Thank you for giving me a thorough explanation and the confidence to try and make my granddaughter’s cake!
Thank you so much for this detailed tutorial
Fabulous tutorial Georgia. Going to use chocolate ganache this weekend 🤞🏻
Thank you so much. I.think Impw have the basis for my grandsons cake. Just perfect.
You have answered my questions and fears in this tutorial and thank you very much for your content 😊 Definitely trying it soon.
So glad I can help!
@@GeorgiasCakes would dark chocolate chips (hershey brand) work for covering a wedding cake before covering with fondant? What ratio would you suggest?
Thank you cleared many of my questions
Thanks alot dear George for sharing the equal part of cream and chocolate . ganache
Amazing 😍🙌
This is the best tutorial on ganache. You answered a question that i have google and searched for and never found the answer ... can i use ganache under buttercream! Thank you so very much for the step by step tutorial. I understand it much better! You are fantastic
Thank you this has been so helpful! I am making my sons wedding cake this week, three tier never done one before but love to bake. I want to do a chocolate cake with ganache filling for the 8 inch middle tier, should I do a white buttercream dam on the outside edges as the cake will be a white buttercream semi naked cake on the outside ?
Hey , absolutely love how you explained it all. I have always struggled to get straight standing cakes. Some or the other layer always bumps out & gives an uneven looking cake. How can I make a tall cake straight ? Any suggestions ?
Thanks for the video. ( Beautiful cake as well ) I want to mail a cake covered in chocolate, should I place the cake in the freezer or refrigerator before mailing. I plan on using Express mail services.
Yes! Please do a tutorial for the little mushrooms!!!!
Just wondering what sound do you use in your videos I really like it thanks
Thanks a lot ma'am , watching from HK
Hello
Thank you very much for sharing. Super cool but, I was wondering if you could share a white chocolate ganache recipe for frosting cake instead of butter cream. Thanks
3:1 ratio of chocolate to cream, so for example 300 grams white chocolate to 100 grams heavy cream. Use a good quality white chocolate and a cream with a high fat content!
Melt them together gently in the microwave and chill it in the fridge for 15 minutes. Take it out and whip it up using a hand whisk until it becomes fluffy and whiter in colour. Be careful not to overwhip. It results in a nice white chocolate ganache that is light and whippy smooth similar to a buttercream that you can use to fill, ice and pipe with :)
You explain so well no need for recipe
Hi Georgia,
I absolutely love your tutorials! This one in particular. Will you be doing a ganache tutorial on white chocolate? I know you spoke about it in this video but like you say, the ratios of chocolate to cream differ. I'd love to hear your tips on how to colour white chocolate ganache as well as make it :)
Thanks for the tutorial. If I may ask, what's the size of your cakes? Maybe I missed some of your tutorials about the cakes size.
Hi Thank you for the videos 😊 can you add alcohol to the ganach... To flavour it?
So just to.confirm ..you can use ganache under fondant? Never knew that I didn't think k the two would go very well or adhere!? Is that right so white ganache with white fondant
Thank you can you please do a tiered dummy cake with buttercream ❤️
Great information!!! Offset spatula scraping in the ganache bowl with was major cringe. Nails on chalkboard 😭
Thank you! To fill the layers of a cake is it best to use the 1:1 ratio or 2:1? I want to use it inside the layers for a gender reveal cake like your view where I’ll be cutting circles out of the sponges.
Please what do i do if temperature is high in my country and ganache keeps sweating making it difficult to cover cake with fondant
Using AC now but afraid the ganache will start sweatibg since the wedding venue has no Ac
Thank you
Can coveture chocolate ganache can be used to cover fondant?
What can I use to substitute to make ganache parave
Love this video & full explanation using dark chocolate. I’d love a video using white chocolate ganache please as this is something I really struggle with! I find it sets too quickly on my cake & the white chocolate ganache always splits 😩
White chocolate is 1 part cream 3 parts chocolate. It is different to use, you can look at my christmas tree cake tutorial - I use white chocolate there!
@@GeorgiasCakes thank you so much I’ll take a look 😊 x
Thanks for the great tips, Georgia. If you love ganache and want a cake filled with and coated in ganache, can you then put Swiss Meringue buttercream on the exterior, direct onto the ganache? Will it adhere? Am worried the wall of SMBC will come away from the ganached cake.
I would love to know too if you can put buttercream on top of the ganache and how far in advance can you decorate?
Will you be doing a video on how to make those adorable mushrooms?
Thank you
Hi hi, would dark chocolate chips (hershey brand) work for this? I'm planning on using it to cover a wedding cake before adding fondant. Thank you.
Hi, what did you use and how did it go?☺️
Hello Georgia,
Here in the uk what kind of cream should I use for the ganache? Double cream, whipped cream?! Thank you
double cream
Hi Georgia,can u show us how to make meringues mushroom 🍄?
Can you put butter cream over the top?
Does ganache stay put in heat?
Toda! =)
Hi Georgia, is a 2.1 ratio OK for UK for covering a cake under fondant? Or would 3.1 be better? I was worried about it either being on the soft side or too firm🙈
2:1 is more than enough!
@@GeorgiasCakes thanks so much 😊
If I don't have any frosting for crumb coat, can I use ganache for crumb coat?
Yes absolutely!
Hey, Georgia :) Just wondering up to how many slices your regular 6" round cake caters hungry stomachs. Hehe. How do you slice the cake then?
You’d cut it vertically into slices then cut each slice into desired portion which feeds about 8-12 maybe more depending on portion size
If it is a short cake then just cut slices like a pizza which would feed about the same number of people
Hi Georgia, thank you sharing this. Some recipes add butter, what’s the difference please?
When people have cream with low fat percentage, they add butter to increase the fat content.
Exactly!
@@miinziiiiiii thank you
@@GeorgiasCakes thank you
Can I use this as a crumb coat for wedding cake then finish with Americans buttercream ?
Yes you can!
@@GeorgiasCakesThank you 😊
Every time i make ganache for dripping - equal parts choc and double cream - the ganache is always too thick :( i use the same 54% callebaut choc and double cream from the supermarket.. always have to add more cream to get the right drip consistency but then the colour changes to light brown. Is there anything I'm doing wrong?!
Try with whipping cream 1:1 it should work better!
Yes same for me when I once used double cream.
So as Georgia suggested try using whipping cream.
I did that the second time and the ganache was the perfect drip consistency.
Thank you so much! Will definitely try that
Dark chocolate ganach recipe please
For thicker ganache meaning like 100 gram chocolate and 50 gram cream? Am I right?
Yes ☺️
Please show a white chocolate ganche
I have on my channel a white chocolate drip tutorial :)
I do not like using the microwave.
sorry Georgia
Who knew she was in Israel?😯
R u an Israeli?
