  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 1 5 Inch Cake 3 Layers Tall Cake 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 600 grams vegan dark chocolate
  • 300 mls thick coconut cream

Instructions

  1. Heat coconut cream in large heavy bottom pot on low heat until small bubbles appear around the edge right before it’s about to start simmering, don’t boil. You can also heat in the microwave.
  2. Remove from stove/microwave and add chocolate making sure it is covered by the cream, cover and let sit for 10 mins.
  3. Stir through chocolate using a whisk.
  4. If there are any lumps, put pot back onto stove on very low heat and stir until lumps have melted and the ganache is shiny.
  5. Transfer to a microwave friendly bowl and let the ganache thicken enough so it can be used to ice your cake.
  6. If it sets too hard you can put into the microwave on a low heat until soft enough to use.

Notes

RATIO Chocolate: Coconut Cream

Drip Icing 0.8 : 1
Cake Filling 1:1

If you’re using this for cupcakes, leave to firm up for 20-30 mins.
