Made with just two ingredients: vegan cream and vegan chocolate chips, this vegan chocolate ganache is the best vegan topping for cakes.
Ganache is a French dessert recipe, and as a French baker, it’s been a staple in my kitchen for years. Ganache is a chocolate glaze or frosting, perfect for a mirror or dripping effect on top of a vegan Bundt cake or to use as a vegan ganache frosting to frost two-layered vegaanisia kakkuja.
While many people think it’s a complicated French dessert, making vegan ganache is pretty easy and requires just two ingredients: an equal ratio in weight of vegan cream and vegan chocolate. You can eventually flavor ganache with extract, like a touch of vanilla peppermint, to glaze a cookie like my vegan peppermint chocolate cookies.

Ainesosat ja vaihdot
- Vegaaniset suklaahippuja – Depending on the strength of the ganache you are after, you can use semi-sweet chocolate like 53% cocoa or dark chocolate up to 70%. Obviously, the darker the chocolate, the more bitter and less sweet the ganache. You can also use chopped chocolate, but if so, it’s highly recommended that you weigh ingredients instead of using cups! While chocolate chips pack nicely in a cup, chopped chocolate doesn’t. Also, you can use sugar-free chocolate for this recipe. It will melt very well as soon as it’s not 100% cocoa chocolate bars.
- Vegaaninen kerma or full-fat coconut milk – You can use vegan soy cream sold in the cold section of your grocery store or canned coconut cream and use only the top part of the can. Alternatively, if these ingredients are not available in store, you can also use almond milk, or canned coconut milk, full-fat, shaking the can before measuring. Note that the less fat, the thinner and less shiny the ganache.
- aromi like vanilla extract, almond extract, or peppermint extract is optional and depends on the flavor you want for your ganache.
How to Make Vegan Ganache In 5 Minutes
This vegan ganache recipe is the easiest vegan dessert or vegan staple you will make and clearly a no-fail.

- In a non-stick saucepan add the plant-based cream of choice, bring to a boil then stop heat immediately.
- Place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or a bowl that can handle boiled liquid like a glass bowl. Pour the boiled vegan cream on top of the chocolate chips. Don’t stir, just wait 2 to 3 minutes.

- Stir gently to incorporate the chocolate and cream together. It takes a good minute of a gentle stir to combine both ingredients, and it has a marble look at first.
- The consistency gets thicker and still liquid but becomes dark, shiny, smooth, and glossy.
Carinen vinkit
- Weigh your ingredients on a kitchen scale – ganache is pure chemistry, and as a scientist, I love precision. Ganache works at 100% time if you weigh the same amount of chocolate and chips. If you work in cups, make sure you pack the cup and level up the top. It will never be as precise if you work in volume, which means you may add too much liquid and end up with a less thick ganache.
- Don’t stir until the chocolate chips are melted – ganache is a slow-process dessert. Don’t touch the ingredients for at least 2 minutes before stirring so the boiled cream naturally melts the chocolate without adding movement.
- Pop in the fridge to thicken and pipe the ganache. Ganache thickens when cold. Pop the bowl in the refrigerator overnight, and use it in a piping bag the next day on top of vegaaniset kuppikakut. You can also roll balls of overnight refrigerated ganache into cocoa powder and turn them into vegan truffles.
- Use lukewarm ganache for a dripping effect on cakes. Pour the lukewarm ganache on top of the cake, it’s runnier and creates the most beautiful dripping effect. Then, pop the cake in the fridge to set the ganache, it stays soft inside but hardens as well.
