Useful tips

When choosing a thickener for cream based on sour cream, it should be remembered that special powder and corn or potato starch will not affect the taste of the finished product, but gelatin can change it. Therefore, it would not be superfluous to add a little more vanilla or confectionery essences to give a pleasant taste.

Although butter cream with condensed milk and is considered easy to prepare, but failures can happen here.

With prolonged beating, the mass is able to exfoliate with the release of buttermilk. To fix the situation, you need to warm up the mass a little on the steam bath and beat again.

So that when making mascarpone cream all the ingredients do not stick together in one big lump, the products are introduced alternately, after the previous one is well mixed, and their temperature must be the same.

Cream of boiled condensed milk often turns out to be very thick and it can be very difficult to beat even with a mixer, so you can try to kill the toffee first with a few spoons of milk, so that later it would be easier to work with her.

If the curd cream turned out to be watery, then it is better to collect the cake in a detachable form, lined with food film, and after the cream hardens in the cold, remove the form and film from the smeared biscuit cakes.

To add pomp to yogurt cream, you can do with icing sugar the same way as with flour when baking biscuits, sow it several times.

Instead of gelatin, agar-agar can be used to thicken the mass. It will need two to three times less.

Any cream should not be prepared in advance (especially those that include fresh products), since after connecting different products together the shelf life is significantly reduced.
