Chocolate Ganache
Ingredients:
9 oz. semisweet chocolate
1 cup heavy cream
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, bring heavy cream to a boil over medium heat
2. Pour over chocolate in a heat-safe container. Stir to combine, and place in fridge until ready to use.
Assembly:
1. Place cake on cooling rack with parchment paper underneath to catch any ganache. Pour ganache over cake, letting it drip over the sides by itself.
2. Roll out long strip of fondant, about 12 inches long and 1 inch wide. Trim edges and place over center of cake.
3. Roll out more fondant until about 6 inches long and 1 ¼ inches wide. Fold in edges to center and pinch to create wrinkles. Roll out fondant about ½ wide to cover center of bow, and wrap around bow.
4. Gently wet surface of center of the fondant strip with water, and attach bow.
