It has to cool for a couple of hours at least imo. Perhaps that was the reason the icing flopped so badly? <em>Shilpa: Yes Aravassu. It was completely cooled. The whipped cream was very difficult to handle. As soon as I took in the icing bag, it started flowing. Then I froze it for sometime and again tried. I think even the heat from my hand was enough to melt it :(. I used cream of tartar in the cream, but it was of not much help. Have you tried icing a cake with whipped cream? Do you have any suggestions for making the cream hold its shape? We both don't like butter cream icing, so I want something else to replace it. Please let me know.
