Faq
- Why isn't my ganache smooth?
Ensure you melt the white chocolate and cocoa butter gently, and that the purees are warm enough to blend smoothly. A blender can help create that perfect texture.
- Can I use different fruit purees?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with different fruit combinations, just keep in mind the consistency and sweetness might vary.
- What’s the best way to melt white chocolate without burning it?
Use a microwave in short bursts, stirring in between, or a water bath, making sure the water doesn’t touch the bowl to prevent overheating.
- Why do my candies have air bubbles?
Stirring gently and tapping the mold lightly before cooling can help avoid air bubbles in your candy layers.
- How can I adjust the sweetness of the fillings?
Adjust the amount of sugar in the marmalade or use less sweet chocolate to balance the flavors to your liking.
- Can I add other textures to the candies?
Certainly! Try adding finely chopped nuts or crispy rice to the ganache for a delightful crunch.
