The Absolute Best Type Of Frosting To Use On An Ice Cream Cake
BY KAT LIEU
For ice cream cakes, traditional buttercream can harden too much when frozen or refrigerated. While whipped cream is ideal, stabilized whipped cream frosting is the best choice.
Stabilized whipped cream frosting is lightly sweet and doesn't overpower the ice cream cake. The texture remains luxuriously light instead of frosty.
Stabilized whipped cream also has an unmatched consistency. While feather-light and airy, the addition of unflavored gelatin makes it firm enough to retain its shape.
Spread or pipe the frosting onto your ice cream cake. Each spoonful will delight with its velvety, airy texture and hold beautifully, making every bite creamy but not overwhelming.
