It gets firm if it's cold, but is soft at room temp. |

Thanks Holly I ended up using the recipe you suggested and I was very happy with it. I have now conquered my fear of ganache! I am usually more of a fondant girl! LOL |

It looks great! The strawberries are a great touch--they really "pop" against the brown. |

Your cake is beautiful! If I use the ganache recipe posted can that also be drizzled as well? I had a cake this week-end that had drizzled chocolate but it was hard. The frosting was soft but the drizzled part would snap.
Thanks,
