White Chocolate Ganache With Key Lime?
Baking By cherrycakes Updated 13 Jun 2009 , 12:20am by CarrieBear
I am making a wedding cake and will be using White Chocolate Sour Cream cake (essentially WASC without the almond). For the filling the bride would like key lime which I'll add into buttercream icing. I am wondering if it is also possible to spread on a thin layer of white chocolate ganche and then put the key lime buttercream on top of that for each layer? Would it be terribly rich, or would it even work? Thanks for any advice!
Sounds good!! Sugarshack's new video, the topsy turvy one goes into crumb coating with ganashe -- it may be worth taking a look.
Thanks for that suggestion! Are there any others who have tried this combo or at least a layer of ganache with another filling?
actually I did that a month ago, I made a a wedding cake and the top layer was Keylime cake with keylime white chocolate ganache and lime buttercream on top of that, It was pretty rich, but if the pieces arent huge its not too bad, it was very good though,

Did you use an extract for the ganache? If so, what kind was it? Oh, and by the way...we're coming to Minneapolis for a vacation in July - do you have any cake supply stores that you could reccommend? Thanks!!
Oooooh yum. I was thinking of making some petits fours like this! Crumb coating in ganache is a great idea. How yummy!
Sucks Im dieting again. Baking is on hold for me. lol. you guys are bad temptation.

Yes I used Lorann Oil Flavoring Key Lime Flavor in the ganache and buttercream
one of my favorite groups of stores went out of business recently
But I did find one that I have been going to on recommendation of others and I am fairly happy with it. Its not huge, just a small supply store but I think they are moving into a larger building soon.
