just wondering if anyone knows of one that you can leave out. tia

is it the heavy cream that makes it have to be in the fridge? could I sub. that part for something else? any suggestions?please.

Renee do you have Pastry Pride or Rich's Bettercreme in your area? Both are non dairy toppings. I make a Kahlua Bavarian Cream filling with Pastry Pride that is really delicious and doesn't require refrigeration. Although I would refrigerate if it is hot weather, I think the heat might cause the filling to break down.

thanks shirley. I don't know if it is in this area or not cuz I've never looked for it but I will see. where would I look for it at? a grocery store or cake place? thanks

I am in California and I buy Pastry Pride at Smart & Final store or Cash & Carry store. It comes in 1 quart or half gallon milk type containers in the freezer section. You thaw and beat as you would whipping cream.

I use Rich's Bettercream too and is non dairy and does wwell out of the fridge even for more than a day inside the cake..

Where can you buy Pastry Pride or Bettercreme?

I live in Illinois. I'll see if any of the stores around here have it. thanks so much for the info

i buy it in my cake supply and food store

That is darned annoying, I had a message written, submitted it and got the "You can't post another post this soon" message, I hit the back button and my message is gone. Oh well.

All I had said was that Pastry Pride is manufactured in Illinois but the odd thing is no one on the East Coast seems to be able to find a supplier. Yet on the West Coast we have it in several stores. I have heard that Costco may carry it now, I would imagine in larger sizes though.

I buy it at Smart-n-Final, too.


What about adding LoRann Keoke Coffee (Kahlua flavor) to a vanilla or chocolate pudding snack pak?

I've read somewhere about a cream cheese filling that can be set out for hours without refrigeration, but I forgot the brand - does anyone know?
