I've made this to fill some gluten free pastry cases and make chocolate tarts. They are really tasty and I'm very impressed. However, I'm wondering if the ganache needs to be kept refrigerated? I may try and sell some on a market stall and was wondering if it would be alright at room temperature for the day?

Owner's reply

So glad the ganache worked out for you janiehee! The ganache should be fine for a few days unrefrigerated at normal room temperature, but if left out longer than that, I would think the worst that could happen is that some fermentation could occur due to the presence of sugar and starches. It should be about the same storage conditions as traditional ganache: The lower the cream content, the longer the shelf life.

Vegan Chocolate Cake

"I use this as a base recipe with many variations - it's very forgiving as long as you keep the flour/liquid/sugar ratios in balance, and keep the batter acidity balanced. My favourite variation is vegan Rotweinkuchen - replace the water with half water half red wine (a fruity Merlot or Zin works well). Add half a teaspoonof cinnamon. A simple chocolate ganache (dark dairy-free chocolate with coconut cream) or glaze (with more red wine or almond milk) works well. Or push the boat out and make a vanilla buttercream!"

"1). Vanilla powder is available for sale on various baking ingredients and flavorings sites. It requires no liquid. 2). Is it ok to go a little over 120 degrees F, like to 125 or 130? Thanks"

Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies | Gluten-free

"Great recipe, I loved trying it out with different kinds of nut butter. My only issue is that the cookies are really soft and crumbly even when I use peanut butter and cook them for 15 minutes. Does anyone have any tips for making them crunchier? Otherwise delicious though :)"
