I have old recipes for 'mock cream' - used during wartime I think - will look them out if you like
Just wandering if anyone has any idea how to make the fake cream or something similar to what the bakers use in their cakes?
I have old recipes for 'mock cream' - used during wartime I think - will look them out if you like
MOCK CREAM
1 Gill milk
1 Dessert spoon cornflour
1.5Teaspoon caster sugar
1oz Margarine
Vanilla essence
Method
Make a stiff cornflour paste with milk, boil for 3 minutes, allow to get cold.
Cream Margarine and sugar, gradually add cornflour mixture and vanilla essence.
I have never tried this, but I've taken it from an old handwritten recipe book - good luck
My mother used to make this for cream horns for church sales/teas. I loved it - better than real cream as it was fatty. Hope it works for you.
wonder if it will work with soya milk to make a milk free cream...will have to try
u get a dairy free cream from tesco its on the shelf with the gluten free and health foods. aian a white carton its great u can whiop it up like whipped cream and tastes lush
has anyone tried this recipe yet, as I would like to know if it is any good. Too lazy to try it myself.
I personally don't like fresh cream, so i use dream topping sachets for the middle of cakes etc. it's really easy to mix and tasty!
