(More customer reviews)My husband is diabetic and I have a passion for decorating cakes. For months I had been struggling to find a frosting that wouldn't put my husband in danger. I had seen this here on Amazon but was not willing to pay $30 for something that may not work, tasted bad, or would end up runny.
It seemed so foreign to me as a cake decorator to "just add water" to frosting, but I followed the instructions and was pleased that when it was done that it at least resembled frosting. I was concerned about the consistency since the cover pic looked like all you could do with it was smear it across the cake. Feeling a tad disappointed that it was not stiffer, I covered it and put it in the fridge for a couple of days. I had been trying to make a cake for my Hubby from the Sweet 'N Low "Yellow" cake (it still looked white) since he has been suffering through me working on practice cakes in preparation for doing his sister's wedding cake next month. I had held onto the very tiny hope that the Sugar Free frosting could actually be decorated with like a real cake.
IT WORKED! After the two days I pulled the frosting out of the fridge and immediately re-whipped it and iced the cake, then put it in a frosting bag with a star tip. My shell borders came out perfect! It is really smooth and firm as long as it stays cold, then it works like buttercream!
Hubby LOVED it and would have eaten it all at once if I hadn't made sure he didn't. He was really impressed that he got a 'real' cake.
I am not a huge chocolate fan, nor do I like the chemical taste of a lot of sugar free foods, but even I liked how it tasted! It just tastes like a good milk chocolate frosting. Yummy! Just keep the cake refrigerated and the icing will stay firm. Next time I think I'll try a wider variety of tips, but I'm sure it should work just fine! I just hope the white frosting turns out as well!
