For the ganache:
Tip: Decorate the cake on a plate so that any excess ganache is caught. You may find it helps to pop it in the fridge to firm up the ganache so you can go back over with a knife to improve the presentation on the sides.
If you’re a real perfectionist when it comes to presentation, a knife warmed under the hot tap will help you to achieve a smooth, glossy finish when finishing off the sides.
