I want to make a coffee flavoured ganache to complement my coffee marble cake. I'm planning on dissolving Espresso powder in the warm cream, but I'm not sure if I should use white or dark chocolate. I'm guessing if I use dark it would be more of a mocha flavour but has anyone tried it with white chocolate?? Would white give it a more coffee flavour?? I would really appreciate some advice if anyone can help. :)

AYou would definitely taste more coffee with the white. Chocolate will take over and the coffee would be a back note.

Thanks for your reply Pastrybaglady :)

Have used Milk and Dark Chocolate for Coffee flavoured Ganache...

Both worked and tasted wonderful

But then i think the taste of so called *white chocolate* is horrid.

The sweetness of the white chocolate is still pronounced... :/

Hi Bluehue, so which did you find had the most pronounced coffee flavour milk or dark ???
