The first time I covered a cake with ganache I searched high and low for a good recipe, I finally found one and here it is
Ganache is a mix of heavy cream and chocolate. It's so simple you won't believe you can't go wrong. After following my ganache recipe- here you can chose how to use it .*
For drips:
To make drips, this recipe is ready! Ganache is perfect for drips.
Ordinary melted chocolate when setting would go back to the hard consistency of a chocolate bar, due to the cream the ganache won't harden but will set.
To use leave to cool at room temperature and add to a piping bag. Cut the end off and pip on to a cooled cake.
