Not buttercream Not Ganache What is it 🤭?

Transcript

This is not buttercream, and this is not ganache. So, what is it? You may ask, it is ganache buttercream. The best of both worlds. Look at how silky, smooth and delicious it looks. Guys, you remember I struggle with ganache when I was trying to cover a cake in Mexico. So this time around when we went to Costa Rica, I came prepared. I mixed my buttercream with white chocolate ganache and honestly, I may have discovered my new favorite cake covering combo. You get the creamy texture and the easy spreadability of buttercream, plus the added structure and beautifully smooth finish of ganache. It was easier to work with, less finicky than straight ganache and gave my cake such a beautiful, clean, polished finish, even in warm Costa Rica. Just look at the texture. Would you try this white chocolate ganache?
