I think what they use is actually a non dairy product, or at least it was at Safeway. Do you have access to a frozen product called Pastry Pride? I love it, it is thawed and then beaten to stiff peaks. It is more stable than Cool Whip and I think it tastes better. You can ice with it, pipe borders and do writing, I think it is a bit soft for making flowers but I haven't actually tried that. I also use it for Bavarian cream fillings, I posted the recipe in the recipe section of the forum.

Would you guys say those other brands compare to Wilton's ready-to-whip Whipped Frosting? You just add freezing water and beat it for a few minutes.

Thank you I will try to ask to see if they will sell me some from the store. I have never heard of Pastry Pride though... What exactly is it?

Try using the whipped cream buttercream icing on this site under "recipes." It is totally temperature stable. I sometimes mix it in with my Wilton buttercream and my sister swears it tastes exactly like what the stores use.

pastry pride is a whipped icing/ filling mix. You buy it frozen in cartons, let it thaw and whip. To me it tastes like cool whip, but holds up better on a cake.

If you're not familiar with Pastry Pride, perhaps your store carries Rich's Bettercreme (comes in 1 qt. milk type container, which you whip) or can be purchased whipped at Sam's Clubs (that have a bakery dept.)

my mom uses Tip Top non dairy whipped topping (sounds like it's exactly the same thing as Pastry Pride - frozen in a carton) and adds 1 envelope of whipped cream stabilizer...Holds up just like a store whipped cream frosting! See 60th b-day cake in my photos...
