Ganache Formulation Class June 2025

Day 1

• On this first day, Chef Ramon welcomes you to the class with an in-depth look at the main ingredient families that interact with chocolate, such as sugars, fats, fruits, alcohol, and additives.
• Then, you will cover one of the most crucial concepts: water content in ganache recipes and the importance of keeping sugars dissolved in them.
• This will lead you to another essential topic: how to use different sugars and polyols (like sorbitol) in your recipes to extend the Water Activity (AW) and shelf life of your bonbon fillings.
• Finally, you will discover why fats are powerful texturizing allies that you should use to improve the final texture of your ganaches.
