A review of Cream Cheese Flavour Icing Sugar

Today, I will be reviewing Sugar and Crumbs Cream Cheese Flavoured Icing Sugar. This retails at £2.99 for a 500g bag and is available online from Sugar and Crumbs and also in retail stores such as Hobbycraft. The icing sugar is completely natural

and is a substitute for fresh cream cheese frosting.

The advantage of cream cheese flavoured buttercream is that unlike fresh cream cheese frosting, it won’t require refrigeration. The buttercream is made by whipping 250g of salted or unsalted butter until really white and soft, then chopping in a 500g bag of cream cheese flavoured icing sugar, and finally mixing for about 30 seconds using a stand mixer or handheld mixer. Some hot water or milk can be added to achieve the required consistency.

This product makes a fabulous cream cheese buttercream for use on carrot cake or red velvet cake.
