Additionally, you can also stir in vanilla extract and powdered sugar for extra flavor and sweetness. That’s it! Your chocolate ganache is ready to be used for chocolate frosting.
3. Using Tulip Chocolate Compound Block Products
You can also use compound chocolate blocks the way you would couverture chocolate. By turning your compound chocolate blocks into chocolate ganache, you can easily make some delicious chocolate frosting that looks as beautiful as it is delicious!
