Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

When I use 2 to 1 to make dark chocolate granache it is to thick as I want to pour over cake and then let it set

Hi Cupcakes1956

Dark chocolate does make a thicker ganache. If you’d like it less thick use a 1:1 ratio instead.

My granache does not dry like Paul’s is he using something else ,

Hi cream

Paul uses 2:1 ratio of dark chocolate and double cream to make the ganache in the tutorials. He uses Belcolade chocolate with 50% cocoa solids. Can you please say how your ganache is giving you problems.
