I am making your Choco BC recipe that I found in the recipe section & I have a couple of quick questions.
Do I have to use corn syrup? I just finished the batch, up to the point of adding all of the PS & the consistency is good for what I need. Do I Need to proceed with the rest of the recipe & add the corn syrup?
Also, do I need to refrigerate this? I am covering the cake today, but probably won't finish decorating it till tomorrow & it won't be eaten until Saturday.
I have made a different kind of Choco icing in the past & it turned to fudge when I refrigerated it. I don't want that to happen again.
TIA

when your other recipe turned to fudge, was it when it was still cold or after it had warmed up a bit after being taken out of the fridge?

I usually add 1 or 2 tbsp of corn syrup. It does not seem to thin the icing, just gives it a little more pliability and makes it easier to spread.
Hope this helps, P
