This is probaly a stupid question. Can I use whipped ganache for a crumb coating for a poured ganache cake, or would chocolate buttercream be better? I have the whipped ganache on hand. Will it be more likely to melt then the buttercream?

Thanks
Julie

Some people don't even crumbcoat for gnache. However, I don't see why you can't use whipped gnache as long as the poured gnache isn't too hot.

Julie,

The only thing you can't use would be whipped cream. It would just slid right off. That cake sounds soooo yummy!!!
