Does anyone have a recipe for white chocolate plastique that can be used to rolll out and cover a cake.
Thanks,
Lynne

Helllllllllllllllllllllppppppppppppppp

Do you mean ganache or chocolate clay? I think both recipes are in the gallery.

Hello,
It is similar to chocolate clay but not as chewy. I think chocolate clay is used more for modelling and not covering.

White chocolate is not chocolate, hence, white chocolate plastique is notoriously difficult to get to work properly ..

recipe 1
8 oz white chocolate
¼ cup light corn syrup

or

recipe 2
8 oz white chocolate
1/3 cup light corn syrup

Your choice ..

Lol thanks auzzi do you have any other suggestions? Its a 3 tier chocolate wedding cake, just wanted to do something other than fondant

Lynndy I covered my dog in white chocolate. Used the recipe in the wilton books. 1 bag wilton white to 1/3 cup light corn syrup. HTH

Thanks for the reply, but we dont have many wilton edible products in the UK. )-:

Hahahahaha lol

How about Satin Icing ?
Nigella has a recipe - and it is quite versatile.

Some things
1. "do not over boil at this stage" is a pivotal direction
2. it is softer than rolled fondant, it can be flavoured, and any problems in covering the cake are easier to fix than rolled fondant.
3. cover the cake using the same technique that you would use for marzipanning ..
4. buff the cake with cornflour to produce a satiny-smooth finish ..

Pale lavender, lemon yellow, and pale apple green satin icing looks especially spectacular with fresh flowers ..
