Hi Jane, just wondering about the nutella ratio in this recipe. It states 100g nutella but with your other nutella buttercream recipes it calls for equal butter and nutella. Is this a typo, should it be 300g? Thanks!!

In reply to Claire. There isn't anything wrong - as mentioned on step four of the ganache, you have to whip the thickened ganache to make a lighter colour and this step is optional.

Yo haven’t done anything wrong – on step four it mentions whipping the ganache to make it a lighter colour. Without this, or less of this, it will be a darker colour. The colour isn’t an issue though as long as it tastes nice

In reply to Carly. Hi. I made this a few months ago (just about to make another) and I whipped the ganache. It makes it go lighter in colour and texture and in my view easier to work with.

I’m a little confused. I’ve made the ganache and put that on the top of the buttercream but isn’t a light Matt colour but the same as what the drip will be? What have I done wrong?

Hi Jane, did you try the sponge with butter spread instead?

Hi Jayne,
Do I split ganache recipe in two? Sounds too much to make X2. I am making Ferrero Rocher drip cake.

Thanks Kay

In reply to Christine. Hi Christine, I found that if you whip the ganache (after it is all mixed together) it lightens the colour, so the cake covering would be lighter than the unwhipped drip I only found this out after trying it, so I just make up a small extra amount for the drip

In reply to Lynda. Baked today and the same happened to me in terms of being undercooked at 45mins! I foolishly didn’t bother checking with a skewer and had to bin it!

In reply to jasmine. The cake mix sounds fine, it just sounds like the sponges needed longer baking! x

Hey Jane, made this cake today it baked everywhere apart from the tiniest bit in the middle!the bits that were baked tasted amazing!!! Can I ask, what is the consistency of the cake mix meant to be like once fully mixed? Mine seemed quite thick @ stiff - not sure if this is the way it’s meant to be..hoping you’ll respond before tomorrow as making this for a birthday for Thursday! Thank you xx

Hi, I am making this for a birthday party in 2 days time. If I make the sponges tonight (Monday) will they be ok if I do the rest tomorrow and serve on Wednesday? If so how would you store the sponge?
