Has anyone had any negative feed back on the ganache/fondant method of Planet Cake? It appears they use no frosting and I'm wondering what the customer response is to that. icon_cool.gif

No negative feedback - we over here have been doing it for yearssssssssss
Long before PC became popular. icon_lol.gificon_lol.gif
We aren't so much into the BC and frostings like in the States.

Never been asked to do anything else under my Regalice/medium except for varying flavours and degrees of chocolate ganache.

thats good to know. I personally don't like frosting and would love to get a cake with just filling and ganache, but I was worried my customers would be like..."ummm wheres the frosting?" icon_lol.gif

Be as your forum name says - adventuregal icon_wink.gificon_smile.gif

Educate your customers - surely frosting after all these years is getting a tad old - drag them kicking and screaming into the 21 century - icon_lol.gificon_lol.gif

I use my ganache for both filling of all layers - then cover entire cake - allow to set up for at least 6 hours - then cover and decorate.

You can flavour your ganache ( for the filling) with morello cherries/peppermint chocolate/orange zest/ as just a few examples.
You can also flavour it with chocolate flavouring oils.

If other cakers in your area aren't using ganche - then thats a whole new avenue for you - thumbs_up.gif - be the first - be different.

Be ADVENTURE GANACHE GAL. icon_smile.gif
