Crumb coating a cake that is going to be iced with butter cream

Hi
I am making a vanilla layer cake and icing it with butter cream roses and stars. Normally I crumb coat with butter cream.
Can I use ganache for this?
Would a white chocolate ganache work?

Thanks
Rachael

Hi Rachael

There’s no reason why you can’t do that. Type ‘white chocolate ganache’ in the search box and you’ll see lots of questions and answers, hints and tips to get the best out of your ganache.x
