How to Make It — Step by Step
Make Ganache
Heat 1 cup truffle base in a saucepan until it comes to a boil, then add chopped dark chocolate and stir until completely smooth with no lumps
Rest Ganache
Remove from heat and let the ganache sit at room temperature for 12 hours so it firms to a spreadable consistency
Bake Cake
While ganache rests, combine eggless premix, 1/3 cup water and oil, mix well, then bake as directed on the premix pack
Make Sugar Syrup
Combine 1/2 cup water and 5 tablespoons sugar in a pan, bring to a boil, stir until sugar dissolves, then cool completely
Assemble and Decorate
Soak cooled cake layers with sugar syrup, then frost and decorate with the set ganache as desired
Tips for the Best Result
Chop the dark chocolate into small, even pieces before adding it to the hot truffle base so it melts smoothly without lumps.
Allow the truffle mixture to sit at room temperature for the full 12 hours so it sets to the right consistency for frosting and decorating.
Prepare the sugar syrup and sponge cake while the truffle sets so everything is ready to assemble once the 12 hours are complete.
