Thanks for your reply. I’m in Cape Town. I want to use white choc ganache (coloured ice blue) under the fondant because: 1) I want to get really sharp edges on the cake and 2) I am doing a border of cut out christmas trees and want the blue to show through. I’m also not a huge fan of the taste of almond paste. I’m giving one as a gift next week so will have to rethink the ganache for that one – can one colour almond paste?
