Just a suggestion, in Portugal, we use condensed milk a tsp at the time adding to the whipped cream to leave the whipped cream smooth. We mix it with the spatula to take the air bubbles and leaves the whipped cream shiny and silk. You can really mix it well with the spatula to incorporate the CM to the whipped cream. It's amazing I use it on basically all my cakes

Thank you MK. Does the whipped cream-iced cake need to be refrigerated all the time or is it okay at room temperature? How long does it last? Is it less time than buttercream?

[@CakesbyMK]

Hi there! They perform well at room temp but if you're not displaying the cake I would recommend keeping it refrigerated to keep it fresh. Once whipped it lasts for a while (definitely longer than fresh whipped cream), maybe over a week or so, and it is definitely much easier than making a buttercream as you just pour it and whip away! :)

OMG this is what I was looking for, that was a very thorough explanation and really helpful. I just have one quick question, I love how stable and white Non dairy whipping cream is, but is it okay to add mascarpone cheese so that I could still get that dairy flavor? Or would that change the texture of the non dairy cream? Thank you!

[@CakesbyMK]

So glad to hear this was helpful :D and hmmm good question! I've never tried doing that but I don't see why it wouldn't work! Give it a go with a smaller batch and see how it goes. If anything, mascarpone would work great to stabilize the whipped cream even further :)

[@fca_md]

I live in hot and humidity country. I used a lots of non dairy, but usually it tastes flat. My secret for echanced the taste of non dairy, i will mix 1:1 of non dairy and dairy. You can even replace dairy with cream cheese or mascarpone cheese. Non dairy will act as stabilizer for my cream.

[@dida9421]

@@fca_md Oh wow thank you for the suggestion! Same thoughts, non dairy tastes flat but its hard to ignore how white and stable it is which makes it a great option too. I'll definitely try that 1:1 non dairy and dairy because mascarpone is hella expensive. Also, do you recommend any brand for both of the creams? Thank you!

[@fca_md]

@@dida9421 yes non dairy will act better as stabilizer, but not for taste. My current fav brand is rich's double cream and rich's gold label non dairy. Their cream are more stable and taste better. But it's just my personal preference ☺️

[@dida9421]

@@fca_md Hello! Me again, Im planning to try your suggestion today and I just have a quick question, when using the 1:1 technique, do you whip the non dairy first until soft peak then pour the dairy and whip again? or do you mix it together and whip? Thank you!

Hi Victoria! You can only use it to stencil if what you're stenciling on is a firmer buttercream or fondant. Because it's soft, you won't be able to stencil on a whipped cream covered cake. Hope that makes sense! :)

Hello MK. Nice informative video. Two things though: 1 - It was hard to distinguish the topping on top of the cake. For me anyway. White on White blends too much. Maybe a different camera angle would have shown a bit more the details of the toping. 2 - English is not my native language & I thought you were speaking a bit fast at times which made it difficult to understand all. Thank you & keep up the good work while being safe.

[@AllyAntoinette]

@@CakesbyMK thank you so much for that.

[@Lisa-hc3uq]

Alicia, this sounds crazy but please try this method first before depending on it to see if it works for you. I have and it works great. Use conventional whipping or heavy cream. Sweeten and whip til very soft peek consistency. I use just a couple of pinches of Cream of Tartar at that point. It thickens whipped cream pretty quickly after adding so you have to keep an eye on it so it doesn't thicken too much too fast. That's really important if you're going to pipe it using a bag. Cream of tartar is a white powder. I don't know where I got the tip from about using it (many years ago) but it works on all my whipped cream frostings that I've done in the past. You can't use too much though and the timing adding it to the whipping or heavy cream while mixing is important. Whipped cream will last in frig (as leftovers) for days. Maybe it would on a freshly decorated cake? I've only used it on decorated cakes the day of serving. But left over desserts and extra whipped cream have held up very well in the frig for days after. It's amazing stuff but always use just a couple pinches in a batch as adding too much will affect the flavor of the whipped cream. Do a test batch and see. Stick it in the frig. You'll be amazed how it holds up. 😊
