Coke syrup. The stuff that they put in fountain soda machines. It's a thicker syrup that the machine mixes with soda water to make the pop. Check with a restaurant supply store, or make nice with someone who owns a restaurant of any sort that has that machine and offer them some free treats for a cup of the syrup. Dang. Now guess what I'm gonna have to do! Hahaha. Don't forget that at places like WalMart you can now get Dr. Pepper and A&W Syrup in the ice cream aisle!! NUM NUM NUM!
Forgive me if this has been asked already - I have been reading this thread a few pages at a time and may have missed something.
I have finally found Bettercreme! YAY!
I know someone had asked earlier about adding jello powder and the answer was that it would be too gritty.
Has anyone tried adding a little bit of boiling water to some jello powder to melt the sugar crystals and then using that liquid to add to the bettercreme?
The reason I ask is that I have a blueberry jello here and a 3 year old grandson who would love blueberry vanilla cupcakes.
Okay everyone I've updated the recipe links!! Click on the link in my signature and to go page 6 for the updates! 
Im probly asking a ? thats already been asked, so sorry
BUT....is there anything you can do if you overwhip the bettercreme?? I did and I've filled a couple cupcakes and it'll be fine but its very firm!! so I was just wondering if there was something I could do to to it to soften it back up?? thanks...Laura
thanks!! I used frostin pride...didn't have anymore left so its okay they can chew there filling...hehe...it was my first time using it, I used the pudding...its yummy!! I used white chocolate pudding...think I'm going to try banana and lemon next!! and not whip it as much!!! thanks for all the great tips on here!!! I've gotten so much information on here that my son asked me tonight why did I have to be such a great baker!! hehe...if he only knew how easy it was!! (NOT the decorating part!!! I'm still trying to figure that one out!!) thanks again!!!
Melvira - If you don't mind sharing, where do you purchase the liquid Bettercreme? I'm from the same area and checked Sam's in the QC and they only had the pre-whipped.
BTW - Thanks for all your great tips and flavor ideas! I want to try them all!!
Well, I used to get it at TPC Cash and Carry but be prepared to be robbed. It's over $6 a quart.
That's great! I don't make goodies in bulk so this should work out just fine. Thanks again for all your advise we all appreciate it!
Dunno if anyone was wondering.... but I had been lookin for bettercreme in FL and I just found some at Gordon Foodservice Marketplace.....no membership required

Ok so this may be WAY old news, but I tried to search it and nothing came up.
In our local grocer's annual calandar, there was an advertisement for bakeries to use bettercreme. In the advertisement they listed four new flavors, two which i'm pretty damn excited about!!
Caramel, mint, cookies and cream (YAY!) and cream cheese (another YAY!).
Anyway, just thought i'd let you all know encase you haven't heard!
This is too funny! I googled Velvetop and this was the first one on the list and then I found the cake topping.

Bwahahahahahaha!! That's good stuff! Sorry, it's on the Dawn Foods website. I suppose I should've mentioned that. PLEASE do not spackle your cake with driveway patch. That would SO not be deliciously decadent.
You can also make your own soda syrups. Take your choice of soda. Let it sit out & go flat, then pour into a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until it begins to thicken. Let it cool & pour into a glass jar & place in the refrigerator. It will thicken as it cools.
Have fun with your flavors ladies!
Gaby ..Does Your area of Florida have A Gordons Food Service ? Thats where I get mine !
I have to tell you guys that I have also used the bettercreme after its whipped in my hot chocolate . I had some left over and I made us hot choc with a big ole ( or 2 )Tbs of bettercreme dropped on top , So delicious.Tonight I just added it to my french vanilla coffee and soooo good. Im not much of a coffee drinker I only get the flavored coffee from the gas station and Its so good in the french vanilla. I drink coffee that really doesent taste to strong like coffee more just like what ever flavor it is. But its sure yummmy in it!
Hello I started to read this thread...I am in page 15 where you put this...I want to thank you for the info, I was so sad because I thought I was not going to find the bettercream until now...that you said to check for GFS...thank you thank you I am going tomorrow to see if they have it!!!! I will let you know 
Hello everyone I just finished reading this great thread...I just want to say thank you
I think I'm going to go crazy trying to find Bettercreme...I tried the Sam's Club and all they gave me was But-R-Creme, I thought all Sam's club has it!
I am so happy that I found bettercream at GFS...I know I have to give it a try...could you please help me with a recipe? I want to make a chocolate cake wich filling will go with it? thank you!!!!!
chocolate nearly goes with every flavor possible! My friends love the Cookie n' Cream(Oreo) filling with the chocolate cake...Strawberry mousse...Raspberry filling, gosh I'm too sick to think straight...I guess the other CC members can give you so much more suggestions..
Can I ask what is Bettercream made of if it's non dairy? Is it like cool whip? I hope it's not like cool whip because I can taste the whipped oil and it make me burp and I get to taste it all over again! TMI?..lol..sorry..I am interested in trying Bettercream.
I am sorry if this has been asked but I did not see it....
I can buy the big bucket of pre-whipped vanilla for $23 at Sam's(much cheeper than buying the liquid) , if I add the pudding mix to that will it be gritty? Should I mix it with some warm water/milk first? How about folding in the whipped cream cheese, how does that work.
Thanks for any advise....
Tracy
Found it on page 15, thanks!
...I did not get far as page 18, so maybe my Q would sound odd.
Could I use Bettercreme for or as "image frozen transfer"? I mean use the same technique as I would with FBCT? I am planning to do cupcake cake, frost with Bettercreme, but need image on it as well Would my idea work?
Don't think so Zlatka. I have some in the freezer & it's still smooshable. So it doesn't harden enough. But you never know, someone else may have had luck
