This is the best thing I have bought which is simple and easy to follow, I enjoy decorating cakes with Ganache now. I would highly recommend it.
Definitely the best ganache guide I've come across. Masses of knowledgeable and helpful information and tips. Really useful whether you're new to ganache or been making wedding/celebration cakes for years. The quantities section is invaluable. Thank you.
Learned so many tricks with this guide. Worth every penny.
Having messed around with thinking I no how to make and use ganache - I didn’t - got Sally’s All About Ganache Guide - and now I do. It is so easy to understand and follow, with pics too, and I have just made and covered an 8” x 4 layer cake in perfect ganache - as a crumb coat and probably only have about 4 tablespoons left - so no waste or saving it etc as Sally gives u perfect portions to use for the sizes u r using. My confidence in this is a little high at the moment as I am now going to fully cover a cake in ganache with colour!!!
Thank you Sally for this guide!
It’s so easy to follow, and the pictures are very helpful too.
I downloaded on my phone so it’s always close to hand if needed.
