Does anyone know what that great looking fudge frosting is they use at ...say a grocery store on their chocolate cakes(usuallly has a chocolate trasfer around it and is boardered with the fudge frosting). Is this Spread and Gloss...where can I find this stuff or does someone have a recipe?

Thx for your help

you can buy it in 50 pound pails at sams....i use it all the time.

you can mix it in your buttercream for the best ch. icing ever.

i melt it and enrobe cakes with it.

i used it on this cake

Your cake looks similiar to a ganache. Can it be piped though?

it can be piped just for simple stuff like borders...i've used it for leaves before.

it tastes great and is really smooth....

i ran out before and made a home made ganash....imo it didn't taste as good....and was harder to work with, and a lot more expensive,,,,50 pounds at sams costs 36 bucks.

I always make ganache and it can get expensive. I would love to try this product, but I am only an occasional baker. Does this come in less than a 50 lb. bucket? And do you think it would firm up like ganache to be used under fondant?

just a 50 pound bucket....i use it to make chocolate frosting too....iit goes faster than you would think.....since it's comm. grade it has a really long shelf life.

i don't use fondant for covering cakes, so idon't know sorry.

Do you ask for it at the bakery? Im going to try this !
