Difficulty making Cream Cheese
Icing in Africa.
Q: We are in Africa as missionaries and trying to
make cake icing using cream cheese and icing sugar. The problem
is that it is Africa's cream cheese and not Philidelphia's, and
it is more runny. What can we do to thicken up the icing. We
already have added extra boxes of icing sugar.
A: To make it work, you might try reducing the amount
of cream cheese used and the milk or water called for in your
recipe, plus increase the butter (if called for or add it to
replace the omitted cream cheese). Then, if necessary, increase
the icing sugar until you get the right consistency.
May God abundantly bless your
work for Him in Africa!
