Can you pour melted chocolate over whipped cream?

Hi, Angela M! When I top chocolate cupcakes w/homemade whipped cream, I always drizzle the cream with chocolate ganache. It kind of reminds me of a delicious, hot fudge sundae. I have found it helpful to wait a few minutes for the ganache to cool before drizzling and then serve/eat immediately.

What happens when you add cream to melted chocolate?

By whisking a little of the chilled cream into the melted chocolate we lighten the texture of the chocolate. The lighter chocolate is now closer in texture and temperature to the cream, making it easier to mix the two together to form a nice, smooth cream.

What do you use to fold in cream?

It’s commonplace to use a rubber spatula for folding whipped cream or egg whites into other ingredients. A wire whisk works better because it combines ingredients a lot faster without deflating them.

Can I do chocolate drip on whipped cream?

WHITE CHOCOLATE DRIP CAKE You can also use white chocolate to make a drip cake, like on my Hot Chocolate Cake. Rather than half a cup of heavy whipping cream for 6 ounces of chocolate chips, you’ll use 3 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream for the same amount of white chocolate.

Can we apply ganache on whipped cream?

The white chocolate ganache gives the whipped cream enough body so that it’s thick and sturdy enough to use as a frosting on a standard layer cake. As a cake frosting, it will stay put on a cake for days if refrigerated.

Will chocolate with cream Harden?

There is not much of a secret or trick to dipping something in chocolate and getting it to harden, actually. Simply melt semisweet chocolate by itself or with a little cream or butter. Dip, then refrigerate. When the chocolate is cooled, it hardens.

Can I whip warm cream?

You don’t chill your cream. If the cream is too warm, the fat becomes ineffective as a stabilizer, and your cream will fall flat. The cream may thicken, but even vigorous whipping will not make it attain lofty heights and a fluffy texture.
