The chocolate rocher glaze or Ferrero glaze is a smooth chocolate coating enriched with finely chopped roasted almonds or hazelnuts. It is used to coat Yule logs, cakes, chocolate candies, or even ice cream, adding sweetness, crunch, and a beautiful visual effect. It can also be used to cover a dessert like a mousse cake instead of a mirror glaze<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Soft and Crunchy Chocolate Rocher Glaze Recipe<\/h2>\n

This chocolate rocher glaze<\/strong>, sometimes referred to as a soft dipping chocolate when it doesn\u2019t contain chopped almonds or hazelnuts, is very simple to make. It\u2019s an easy and quick recipe that can transform a simple yogurt cake<\/a> into an ultra-indulgent treat.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve already used it to coat a marble cake, and I can\u2019t tell you how delicious it is! The marble cake is already amazing on its own, but with the rocher glaze, it becomes even more irresistible.<\/p>\n

The glaze should generously cover the cake while remaining soft in the mouth. It can be prepared with finely chopped hazelnuts or almonds, which are usually available pre-chopped and raw from the store.<\/p>\n

You can also use finely chopped caramelized hazelnuts or almonds for extra flavor and crunch.

Which chocolate for the rocher glaze ?<\/h2>\n

I particularly love the milk chocolate rocher glaze<\/strong> because it adds flavor and sweetness to every bite, but of course it is a matter of personal taste. If I want a dark chocolate rocher glaze<\/strong>, I usually add a bit of milk chocolate to soften it and achieve a nice color, as you can see in the pictures.<\/p>\n

A milk chocolate glaze with slivered almonds is perfect for ice creams like Magnum. Depending on the dessert you want to glaze, such as a Yule log or a cake, you can also use other types of chocolate: dark chocolate, milk chocolate, Dulcey chocolate, or white chocolate.<\/p>\n

A white chocolate glaze<\/strong> pairs beautifully with dehydrated raspberries or pistachio slivers. It is perfect for covering a vanilla cake or a pistachio cake.

How to Make Chocolate Rocher Glaze ?<\/h2>\n

NB:<\/strong> Find recipe below <\/span><\/p>\n

This chocolate glaze is very simple to make and quick to prepare. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, then add the oil and mix well.<\/p>\n

Next, stir in the finely chopped almonds or hazelnuts, which should be roasted beforehand. Mix thoroughly, then glaze your dessert taken from the freezer or your cake at room temperature. The glaze should be between 30\u00b0C (86\u00b0F) and 35\u00b0C (95\u00b0F) for optimal coverage.<\/p>\n

Even when glazing a cake, it\u2019s best to place it in the freezer for a short time. The glaze will set quickly and coat the cake evenly. <\/p>\n

How to store rocher glaze<\/h2>\n

You might have some leftover rocher glaze, but it\u2019s better to have a little extra to generously cover your cake than to run short. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where it will keep for up to a month or more. Simply remelt it before reuse.<\/p>\n

It can also be used in a chocolate ganache to decorate cupcakes or other desserts. <\/p>\n
