I used this to ice a cake, it has a very good flavor too it. It was too soft to decorate with I thought but Im sure adding a bit more sugar to it would help to stiffen. Despite the whipping cream being perishable it does not have to be refrigerated! I thought it would. Great recipe thx!

I love to cook and aspire to do it well. <br /> <br />I've only been cooking for a few years now, but there are already quite a few people whom I have surpassed. Interestingly enough, I tell people it's not necessarily that I'm a good cook per se, just that I know how to pick the right recipes. This is why I stick around here. :) <br /> <br />I am a recent college graduate with a finance degree. I currently work as an Excel VBA programmer. When I graduated from college, I had no idea this is where my career path would lead; but I think it's kind of fitting and a bit funny since I originally planned to major in computer science. Now, I get to use them both!</p>
