Single cream and white chocolate ganache

Hi I wanted to ask if I could use single cream instead of double cream to make white chocolate ganache?

Hi Arzoo

It depends what it is going to be used for. It can be made as normal with single cream but will not set hard if the application is for use under sugarpaste. You could increase the amount of chocolate to make it set harder or use less cream to the amount of chocolate you’d normally use. Single cream does not contain as much fat as double cream so the ganache shelf life will be reduced.

Hope this helps.
