- If not used immediately, store in the refrigerator or freeze in desired shapes.
- The mixture deflates on standing and may be re-whipped. Allow 1/2 cup frozen topping to thaw about 15 minutes before serving.

I love cooking! Like seriously it's become quite an obsession...:S
Oh well, it's alot better than most things one could get hooked on. At least I'm keeping my friends and family happy :D
I'm really concerned about health 'and stuff' so I will modify any recipe to make it low fat/low sugar/high fibre etc. Sometimes it works whilst keeping the taste, sometimes it doesn't. I guess I'm just gonna keep trying until I can make every recipe something you won't feel guilty about eating...
Oh yea, I prefer using my microwave especially for baking, even though it's not even a microwave OVEN!
