Hi Nicola, thanks so much for this! I absolutely love your newsletters and always look forward to them! This might be a stupid question but would you be able to replace the coconut oil with olive oil? Big fan of the dark chocolate, olive, flaky salt combination :)
Hiya!!! Yes absolutely you could. It won’t have such a firm texture. Play around with it! Olive oil is strong tasting so a like for like swap might be too much. Maybe try 50g chocolate, 15g sugar, 10g olive oil and 20g water? Just thinking that should give you a truffle thick ganache.
Hi Nicola! Love the newsletter :) I am making a vegan GF layer cake next weekend and want to use white chocolate ganache to ice the cake, I was wondering, would these recipes work for a white chocolate icing? i would like something to set hard like a buttercream but the pouring consistency of ganache
Hi Nicola! I’ve been looking for a dairy free chocolate dessert and this looks perfect. Is it possible to use this also for a single (large) tart instead of several small ones?

Love your website, Nicola. As a former pastry chef, I love seeing what others do with pastry. I just subscribed.
Thank you!

Hi! Did you ever end up using this to make a large tart? This is my plan this weekend and I was wondering if you did how it turned out.
I did. And it worked out great
Dense
Thanks!
Did you have to increase quantities at all?
To clarify did you use the dense filling or the more liquidy one?
