• Without going any further today when decorating my son’s cake the ganache was too liquid (it was too hot) and had no consistency for cubrir😵‍💫

      I put it in the fridge for two hours and was able to decorate it but it wasn’t the prettiest cake in the world🤣

        Thank you for sharing this very real moment. That’s exactly what it’s all about, to show that not everything in the kitchen is perfect, and that you also learn (and learn a lot!) from the stumbles. Heat and ganache don’t get along at all, but your solution was super practical and you solved it like a committed pastry chef.
        has it happened to you before with other toppings or was it your first “weather challenge?”. 😊

          hi Elena, very brave of you! 😄
          Thanks for sharing this very genuine (and necessary!) #epicfail. The soft light and low angle make the cake look stunning and honest (and weird haha). The shimmer of the ganache even gives it a dramatic touch that I love 🙌.
          ✨ What was the first time you faced a cake disaster and what did you learn from it? These moments shape us more than a thousand perfect frostings!

          Thanks for sharing. “We are so much more than two”, as the theme says haha

            The classic ganache meltdown…. literally 😅 Been there! But hey, a slightly wonky cake still made with love (and fridge strategy) is a total win in my book. Bet your son loved it anyway!
