Choc Ganache Cake - Do I Ice With Bc First????

You do not have to put BC on the cake before covering with ganache.
Ganache can be poured on when it is semi-cooled but still liquid. It will give a high gloss to the cake.
You can also let it cool completely to room temperature, then whip it and use apply it with a spatula as you would regular icing.

I always do choc buttercream under it to get a perfectly smooth look, as I find it shows any rough surface when you just pour it. I also really like the rich taste this way too. I used it on the sushi cake in my photos.

I always whip my cooled ganache and then ice my cake before I pour it on. You have to warm the ganache again then pour the rest. You can also reserve some of the whipped and pipe boarders and flowers.
When I did mine, I did it the same way as cakesondemand. I seperated some out, cooled it and whipped it, then re-heated the rest and poured over the top. I didn't do any piping because I liked the way it looked kind of dripping onto the board. I attached mine if you want to see it. If not, scroll down really really fast....
Hope whatever you do turns out yummy. I thought the whipped ganache was very easy to handle, because mine was thicker than buttercream. maybe I whipped it too much, I thought I needed to do it for a long time.
