Pauls Exploding Santa – Does he add a filling

Hi there, I’m very new to this so don@t know if I’ve come to the right section to add this question……

I’ve watched the tutorial a few times now and wonder if a layer of filling was added to the cake before decorating it? Would it not be too much chocolate cake per serving without some sort of filling?
I really hope you can help….

Hi Trace

You’ve come to the right place for adding questions and answers.

Paul did not add a filling in the exploding Santa Cake. He did use some ganache to glue the wedge to the main body of the Cake. There is no reason why filling can not be added prior to carving and shaping. Once filled, chill the cake well and it will carve without crumbling.

If you need more information or help, please post again. ?
