? About Working With Whipped Icing

Whipped icing is different from buttercream because it melts faster, therefore you have to work with it faster. It doesn't hold shape as well, so making roses and piping things like that aren't possible. You can still do borders, and piped work, but again, you have to work quickly, because heat from your hand makes it melt.
You need to find a stabalized whipped cream, that's what the grocery store uses. I know Rich's is one brand, but I'm not sure about others. HTH
The whipped that we get in is flavor-rite and people swear that it's just as good as kool-whip.... (not)
It's shelf stable for up to 5 days, and it's so much easier to use than BC (mostly cause I don't have to make it)
Keep it cold until you need it.... better yet, frozen, the way it comes in.... the longer it sits, the stiffer it gets.
