Do you all ganache dummy cakes for weddings or a simple crusting BC will work? I just thought to use all that good ganache on a dummy cake would never be enjoyed especially since ganache is so expensive to make.
You dont have to treat it like a real cake, it definitely doesnt need buttercream or ganache. I rub the dummies with shortening, its much easier when taking off the ucing when I've finished. If I've used water I have to use a hammer.
True story - At a wedding show a few years ago, a well-known bakery brought in a dummy cake that had been ganached. Their spot turned out to be in front of a window. They looked on in horror as the ganache on their dummy cake melted.
No, I feel like the ganache would be a waste. I use shortening on my dummies. I apply it liberally all over the styrofoam and it will smooth over any cracks and imperfections. It's always worked well for me.
