I’d like to use this ganache on the 1234 cake (as a 3-layer). Will I need to multiply this by 3?
Hi Camille, A double batch of the Whipped Chocolate Ganache should be enough to ice the 1234 as a 3 layer cake. Happy baking!
what size cake will this frost?
Hi Linda, This recipe should cover an 8″ cake. Happy baking!
