Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A
Chocolate ganache with vanilla sponge cake
Hi
I have tried Moist chocolate recipe two times and the cake were superb , until today when 2 batches failed terribly , the cake were dipped from middle and were not deep, so finally I made vanilla sponge cake . My problem is that to go with chocolate cake I already made a good quantity of chocolate ganache , I want to know can this ganache go with vanilla cake or I have to make white ganache for it
Thanks

Hi Neha
You can use what ever you want with sponge cake, so yes, you can use your already made up ganache. When I use dark chocolate ganache with vanilla sponge I spread a little raspberry or black currant preserve as well. It’s all down to personal preference.
