Tips

• When using large quantities of chocolate we prefer melting the chocolate over water then adding it to cream when it comes to a boil 
• Do not use the ganache straight away to drip, let it cool a little for a more precise drip.
• Test it out on the side of the bowl to see if it is the desired consistency.
• Although dark chocolate drips better than other chocolates, it tends to have a bitter taste and so it is best for small amounts of decoration. You wouldn’t cover an entire cake with it.
