golf bag cake butter cream instead of ganache

Can I use a crusting buttercream in place of ganache and will it be as stable? Client does not like chocolate.

Hello morrison.family

Not everyone likes ganache so lots of people do use buttercream. I don’t use any type of buttercream for crumbcoat but I have read in many forums how well crusting buttercream holds up. For best results follow Paul’s buttercream tutorials here:

Chocolate Buttercream Cornelli


Your crusting buttercream can be use instead, making sure it is well crusted and chilled before covering with sugarpaste.
Hope this helps.
