How do I prevent frosting
from getting "tacky" outdoors?
Q: I am making a sheet cake for a football tailgate
party. The question is: Most frostings get 'tacky' or soften
when outdoors, temperature will be in 60's, hence the question:
What to add to stiffen frosting so it won't run? Thank you!
A: There is a specialty product
called "Dr. Oetker Whip It" that is used to stabilize
whipped cream, which can also be used to stabilize frosting as
well.
You can also add a teaspoon or
so of cornstarch to frosting to act as a stabilizer. Powdered
sugar contains cornstarch for this very reason.
