Ingredients:
Giant Cupcake, baked as per our tutorials below (I used a chocolate mud cake recipe for mine)
Dark chocolate ganache (recipe below
White chocolate ganache (recipe below) - Half coloured red, half coloured orange. You can use liquid, gel or paste colours for this.

Ganache Recipes:
White Ganache: 600g white chocolate + 200ml whipping cream
Dark Ganache: 400g dark chocolate + 200ml whipping cream

Combine cream and chocolate - microwave for 1 minute at a time until all ingredients are melted - about 3-4 minutes total. You can also use a saucepan to heat the cream till it boils, then remove from heat and pour chocolate into the saucepan, stirring till its completely melted.
