Thank you so much for the tips on utilizing cream, sour cream and or whipped cream for fruit salad. I live in GA. Here we have a buffet which makes an awesome fresh quartered apples with cream. I usually add raisins and cranberries. I like it so much, I bought all three to try and see which one will taste the best. Thanks, LMG
Hello Aunty, where can I find cool whip in the US ?
Cool Whip is available in any grocery store in the refrigerated dairy section. Ask a store clerk if you cannot find it.
Hello Manjula ji,
I had made this fruit cream using your recipe, I couldn’t find sour cream so i skipped it. I also added few drops of pineapple essence in whipped cream, it turned out to be outstanding. Also i powdered the sugar first before adding it in cream..
Thanks & Regards
