I find whipped Pastry Pride so versatile and use it a lot for Bavarian fillings Here is the recipe and directions.
One small (3 oz.) package Jello Instant Pudding mix
2 Tablespoons OR Enough very hot water to make a thick paste, texture about like Hobby paste. You can flavor with a few drops of your favorite extracts or 1 Tablespoon of your favorite Liquere. Stir to remove any lumps and set aside.
Whip 1 cup of thawed Pastry pride to stiff peaks with the wire whisk attachment. Pastry Pride can be flavored with an extract or lliquere. My best seller is Kahlua, I add 2 Tablespoons Kahlua to the beaten Pastry Pride and 1 Tablespoon to the pudding mixture. Spoon a small amount of the flavored Pastry Pride into the pudding mixture, stir to lighten and then scoop this mixture into the bowl of Pastry Pride, switch to the paddle attachment and beat till well combined. Keeps in the refrigerator for up to one week because it is not a dairy product.
This is especially delicious to use with a chocolate cake that has been brushed with a simple syrup flavored with kahlua and coffee, then ice the cake with Sarah Bernhardt chcolate glaze. My best seller and family favorite. Here is a link to SB Chocolate Glaze.

Simple Syrup
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup water
2 rounded teaspoons instant coffee powder or granules
Boil together until sugar is dissolved, remove from heat and add 1 Tablespoon Kahlua. Cool to room temperature and brush on leveled cake layers with a pastry brush. Just enough to moisten the cake, not soaking.
MMMMM! Sounds delicious! Thanks for the recipe, I use Pastry Pride almost all of the time and find mixing other ingredients with it useful. I've used the Kahula before but not with the pudding, sounds great. (I experiement a lot with it!) Lemon pie filling is heavenly mixed with it!
Sorry for taking so long to answer your question, I was away from the computer for a while.
Pastry Pride is a frozen whipped icing mix. You thaw it out, whip it and it looks like whipped cream and goes on nicely to decorate cakes.
You can pipe borders with it and some flowers but it does seperate once it starts to warm up inside the piping bag from the heat of your hands. I use this about 99% of the time now and everyone loves the taste, it isn't sweet at all but creamy.
It can be left out after decorating a cake with it, but I prefer to refrigerate it...personal tastes!
One drawback to it is that it doesn't do well under fondant at all.
I have found it at a little out of the way grocery store, the bigger stores do not carry it here but I don't know about your particular areas. You can find it by the Cool Whip section in the freezer isle.
Hope this helps answer your questions, and if you get a chance to try it, enjoy!
Actually, it is quite similar to Rich's Bettercreme if you find that. I buy it the same way, frozen only in much larger containers which sucks!
