Thank you! I found your video at 21:30pm the night before my husbands birthday, a bowl full of oily ganache and near tears! I didn’t have any more cream, but I heated up some milk and added bit by bit until the ganache came back together.
How fantastic!! I'm so pleased I've managed to be of some use! Thank you for letting me know and I do hope your husband appreciated all your hard work on his cake.
I am a beginner chocolatier/candy maker; your videos have been very helpful! I have one suggestion. The sound would be better, if you would wear a lapel mic. It would make your voice clearer.
This was a professionally produced video with a videographer, a bank of cameras and microphones in my kitchen. I'm sorry if you weren't able to hear me, though.
@@NenetteChocolates I’m forever your debt miss Nenette ❤️ it’s for my mothers birthday cake ☺️ white chocolate matcha ganache I recommend it if you like the taste of matcha ❤️
Had this problem with white chocolate but adding more cream seemed to make it worse so ended up using more chocolate which is alright as I want it to be more like a truffle but even then it still separated a little bit hopefully doesn't turn my cheese cake to mush
Thank you for watching my video. I'm sorry to hear about your experience with your white chocolate ganache. In theory, there should be no difference in the ganache process regardless of whether you're using dark, milk or white chocolate. The quantities I use and which you can scale up or down are 125g chocolate to 75ml cream. That works for me every time - but of course things may depend on whether there are more ingredients in your chocolate than you might expect (take a look on the pack to see what might be in there for white chocolate apart from cocoa butter sugar and milk powder and soya lecithin). As an alternative for next time to adding more cream, you could also try whisking the ganache to emulsify the mixture. I do hope your cheesecake worked out - I bet it tasted delicious regardless.
Adding more cream made mine even grainier. Tried just about everything. More cream, more chocolate, whisking, water, stick blender. I just get the same grainy mess. 😮💨
Hi Jeff. How very frustrating for you. Let's take a look and see if we can resolve this. First of all, can I check the quantities of ingredients you're using. The ratio I use is 125g chocolate and 75ml of cream. This is generally enough to make around 20 truffles. Next, and sorry if I'm repeating myself, shall we walk through the steps: first heat the chocolate and, separately, the cream gently so that they cream is around 35 degrees C and the chocolate is just melted. Then add the cream to the chocolate - little by little. Don't pour it all in at once. At first the chocolate will 'seize' as it hates being mixed with liquid! Just keep adding the cream a little at a time and the mixture will soften, look a little 'greasy' and then it should all come together with a glossy, shiny ganache. If, at this stage - perhaps because the measurements at the start might have been a little off - the ganache isn't glossy, then you can either go in with your electric whisk or, simply add a little more cream. The mix shouldn't be grainy. Still having problems - then drop me an email on info@nenettechocolates.co.uk and we can arrange a call or something. Nenette
