THE BASIC
What is a
whipped ganache ?
Whipped ganache is one of the staple
recipes of French Pastry. It differs from
the classic ganache by the addition of cold
heavy/whipping cream to obtain a soft,
foamy ganache with a much lighter
texture. At Sab Pastries, we only use
whipped ganache because of its light and
creamy texture which goes better as cake
fillings.

The recipes in this eBook are solely used


for cake fillings, you can use them for
your cake layers, cake jars and cake slices.
I would not recommend using them to
cover your cakes, as they are not as stable
as buttercream, regular ganache, or
fondant.

Essential ingredients

Chocolate At Sab Pastries, we only use Lindt chocolate, either Piccoli


couverture chocolate or the 100g bars. This brand offers a
chocolate that has a very good taste and good dosage of
sugar. You can use any other couverture chocolate such
Callebaut, Valrhona, etc.

Heavy or It is mandatory to use a heavy/whipping cream that has at


least 33% - 35% of fat content. We need the fat for the
Whipping cream
whipping process. Heavy cream and whipping are the same
type of cream, I will use the terms interchangeably throughout
the eBook.

Utensils needed
Digital kitchen scale Immersion Blender
Stainless steel or glass mixing bowl Electric Hand mixer or stand mixer
Small or medium saucepan or pot Measuring spoons

Important Information Please Read!


The recipes in this eBook can be divided or multiplied to decrease or increase the
quantities. Divide or multiply the quantity of all ingredients by the same number.

You will see that contrary to popular ganache recipes, I start by melting the
chocolate by itself. This is to ensure that the chocolate is fully melted. We will
have everything under control, hence reducing risks of ruining the ganache.

Caution: the melting process for milk chocolate and dark chocolate is very
delicate, so be careful to not overheat, otherwise the chocolate will burn.

Be careful not to whip the ganache too quickly (e.g. starting with your mixer set to
the highest speed) or for too long when whipping it, otherwise it will have a grainy
texture and will be ruined.

Always keep the whipped ganache in the fridge anytime you are not immediately
using it. The whipped ganache tends to melt as it comes to room temperature,
but will be stable once in between cake layers.

Heavy/whipping cream to be heated refers to the cream that must be heated and
mixed with the melted chocolate.

Cold heavy/whipping cream refers to the cream that will be added to the
chocolate and hot cream emulsion to cool it.

When you cover your ganache with plastic wrap, the plastic wrap needs to be
touching the ganache itself.

You can use extracts, emulsions to enhance the flavour of your whipped
ganaches. Start slowly with a 1/8 tsp and increase to your taste.

How to store
The ganache, before being whipped, can be kept in the fridge for up to 5 days and
up to 2 months in the freezer.

Once whipped, it must be used within 3 days.

Troubleshooting your ganache


Does your ganache have a runny consistency after setting in the fridge ?
That’s the normal consistency of the ganache base, you should have no trouble
whipping it. Think about whipped cream, the cream has a liquid consistency
before being whipped into a crème chantilly.

Is your ganache too hard after the fridge ? That’s very uncommon as no matter
how set your ganache base is, you should be able to insert a whisk in it and mix it
to whip it. If it is too hard, leave it at room temp to soften a bit, but before
whipping make sure that the ganache is still very cold.

You’ve been whipping your ganache but the consistency is not changing! This
generally happens when the speed of your mixer is too slow. You should start
mixing on low-medium speed and gradually increase the speed. We need power
to make the ganache rise and change from a regular ganache to a whipped
ganache. Make sure to use heavy cream that has at least 33% of fat and good
quality chocolate. A light cream will not whip.

How long should one whip the ganache for? There is no set time, you have to
carefully watch the consistency of your ganache change. You can make little stops
while whipping to check the texture of the ganache. The more you make whipped
ganaches, the better you will become at it. The time also varies from recipes to
recipes.

You tried whipping your ganache but you got a grainy, curdled mixture! That
means that you over-whipped, either too fast or for too long. This happens when
you don’t stop the mixer at the right moment. The right moment is as soon as you
see that your ganache has firmed up and can remain still on the whisk, without
dripping like when you initially starter whipping. Remember to not leave your
ganache unattended while the mixer is on. One second of inattention and you will
have a grainy ganache.

How to save an over-whipped ganache? Put back the bowl that has your over-
whipped ganache onto the bain-marie and gently reheat while stirring with your
spatula. Once everything has melted down, cover with plastic wrap and let it set
overnight in the fridge. After, the ganache has set, attempt to whip again. This
time you will have the opportunity to learn from your errors and whip the
ganache correctly.

Where to find the ingredients

Chocolate
I mainly use Lindt Couverture chocolate called Piccoli, and I easily find it their
Canadian website, I also use their 100 g tablets that I find at various supermarkets.
You can also use easily found couverture chocolate brands such as Callebaut,
Guittard, Cacao Barry and Valrhona.

Fruits Pulp and Purees


I get my fruit pulp at my local ethnic store that sells products from Latin America. You
can find the fruit pulps and purees online by typing the name of the fruit puree/pulp
you are looking for. You can also make them by yourself, there are various recipe
available online.

Vanilla Bean Paste


I use two brands of vanilla bean paste: the one from Nielsen Massey and one store
brand name available here in Canada (President’s Choice). You can easily find vanilla
bean paste online or in the store as well.

Fruit Extract and Emulsions:


I mostly buy my extracts and emulsions online. The main brands I buy are: LorAnn,
Amoretti. Any brand will do.

Pistachio, Almond and Praline Pastes


I either make the pastes myself or buy it, they are easily found as well. Costco also
sells pistachio paste and almond spread! Any gourmet shop will have it.

If you want a ganache that has the consistency of the pictures


below, you will need to leave it for a minimum of 24h to 48h or
even longer in the fridge to firmly set.
HOWEVER... this consistency is not mandatory for your ganache
to whip. After 3-6 hours in the fridge, your ganache should be
already very cold and should whip with no problem!

When I am making big batches of ganaches I start my prep ahead


of time, so I can make them 2 to 3 days before I need them. That’s
how I get that consistency. Apart from that, my ganache
consistency after the fridge is generally a little bit runny.
Don’t worry if your ganache looks runny, it is very normal!
