Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

Hello,
Would ganache will be safe to eat for last 5 days , for a wedding cake I am doing in 2 weeks time?

The cake will be covered in sugarpaste, after ganache.

How long will ganache survive outside of the fridge, at approx 17-20 degrees, and does Dark,milk and white all have similar requirements?

thanks

Hi jakki11

A ganached and covered cake is usually good for 3 – 5 days in a very cool, constant environment. Having said that, some people say their cakes are good even after seven days with no problems with the ganache. The sugarpaste covering will protect the ganache to a certain degree, however much depends on where you are located and your climate. and any other environmental conditions.
Normally the time line for decorating to eating is 5 days so that is, 3 days to decorate and 2 days to eat. Both types of ganache have similar requirements.

Hope this helps.

Perfect, very helpful. many thanks
