Pumpkin Cake with Blonde Chocolate Ganache

Today we are celebrating pumpkin for the annual #virtualpumpkinparty organized by fellow food blogger Cake Over Steak. Almost 100 food bloggers are participating! You can see a list of all of the posts here. 

I created a pumpkin cake with blond chocolate ganache for my recipe. I recently reviewed several delicious french products including Valrhona Dulcey Chocolate which is considered the 4th color of chocolate – blond – (after white, milk, and dark chocolate). If you love caramel, you’ll love this creamy chocolate, slightly sweetened from the muscovado sugar. The muscovado sugar also gives the chocolate a rich flavor and beautiful brown color. I also used President butter which is a French butter made with creme. Delicious! 

As you can tell from the pictures I still haven’t mastered the plate drizzle, but I keep trying.
