Dark Chocolate Ganache- place 1200g dark chocolate (I use Callebaut brand but melting waifers can work as well) with 600mg heavy (35%, you have to weigh it out on the scale as well do not measure out in mls) cream into a microwaveable bowl. Microwave for 30 second intervals and mix the chocolate really well in-between until it is melted. Be careful not to burn or overheat your chocolate, your mixing should do most of the work of melting the choc. Once it has melted place plastic wrap directly on top of the chocolate and let sit on the counter to set up, in the fridge if you need it asap. ganache is ready to use when it is at a peanut butter consistency. If it sets too firm just microwave for 10 second bursts until its back to a peanut butter consistency. For White chocolate ganache I use a 3:1 ratio, so 1200grams of white chocolate and 400 grams heavy cream. ~FOLLOW ME (only if you want :D)~ Instagram:   / thelovelybaker99   Facebook:   / thelovelybaker   *Please note some of the above links may be affiliate links meaning if you click the link and purchase items through that link, I will receive a small commission on that purchase (this does NOT cost you anything extra) While there is no pressure whatsoever to use my links, it does help me to be able to continue to give you free cake tutorials and I very much appreciate it.
