Any ideas why my chocolate ganache isn’t coming out smooth? 🍫🤔

Cocoa enthusiasts! I am facing a challenging scenario as I am unable to determine why my chocolate ganache isn't turning out smoothly. Everything is bumpy and not at all what I had hoped for. Is it possible to get that smooth smoothness using any tactics or tips? Thank you!

Hey there! It sounds like your ganache might be splitting or seizing up. Try heating the cream just until it simmers, then slowly pour it over finely chopped chocolate and let it sit before stirring gently. This should help you get that silky smooth texture!

Make sure your cream is hot enough to melt the chocolate evenly! Stir slowly for a silky smooth ganache. Good luck!

Hi everyone! Is your cream hot enough? I think bringing it just to a simmer is key, though boiling might cause issues.

Your chocolate ganache might not be smooth due to using chocolate that’s too cold or not mixing it thoroughly; make sure to use room temperature ingredients and stir well until combined!
