I really don't feel like making buttercream tonight... I'm making ganache anyway so I was wondering if I make a white choc ganache if I can color it with gel color or if that would screw up the consistency.

Ideally I would like to do some red brush embroidery (would I have to add anything else for that?)over a ganache shell, but I can settle for plain piping if I can't so that.

You guys are always so helpful, and I appreciate anything you guys can do for me. ^-^

I think that if you add some red color to your cream when making your ganache, it shouldn't affect the consistency.

At least, that's what I would do.

White chocolate ganache is usually softer, anyway, so you should still be able to work for brush embroidery for awhile.

Let us know how it works out for you.

My initial thought would have been to add color after it was made since that's what I do for icing ^-^ Thanks for that little tip, any bit helps.
