Candy cane in ganache?

[dhardy123]

Hi

I know that a crunchy cookie needs to have a barrier between itself and a ganache but has anyone ever tried putting small candy cane pieces in a ganache and will they just become soft and chewy or stay crunchy?

In soft ganache, like centers, the pieces will eventually dissolve, possibly crystallizing along the way. It's just sugar, flavor and color.

Like Lisa says - they will go soft and chewy then melt entirely

Cover them with cocoa butter.

Thanks, that was what I figured would happen.

 

How about in a meltaway? That's just chocolate and coconut oil and peppermint extract. Would it stay crunchy?
