A lady at my husband's company called to order a cake for Friday. She wants a half sheet cake (1/2 white, 1/2 choc.). Then she said I could decorate however I wanted.....she trusts me.

I have never worked with ganache and would love to try. My only hesitation is that she wants 1/2 white and 1/2 choclate cake. Do you think that the ganache would be okay to put on top or do you think I should just stick with regular BC. I was thinking about whipped ganache and then poring some more on top to drip down the sides. Maybe even a few choc. dipped strawberries as accents. I think I would rather go for a more "classy" cake for this.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,
Brandi

i just did ganache last week in class and the next day when i went to cut it, it was really hard i dont know if it was because my layer of ganache was too thick or what but i told myself i would not do this cake again unless i was going to serve it immediately. (its also a little more pricey then bc) just my opinion.

forgot to say that it was delicious.

Thanks for your input pastelitos!

I guess my real question is, will ganache go with the white cake?

Ganache goes with everything!!!!
