Hi Mary,

Royal icing does dry hard and can be packaged and stacked. 🙂

Love, love all your recipes and I wish I could decorate like you.

I was making a cream cheese frosting using cool whip too, and it never would get stiff enough…I was just starting to get exasperated, when I pictured God and the rest of the world watching me try to get it right….it was going everywhere…what a sticky mess!! Anyway, I then got the giggles, and when you’re trying to pipe a sticky, gooey mess, and your hand is shaking from giggling, it’s NOT GOOD!!! :p And the kids at church were the recipients of the mini cupcakes,…one of ’em came up later, asked for more cupcakes, and wanted to know who made the yummy frosting!!( I love cooking for kids) Next time, they’ll have yummy frosting in that pretty swirl that you show on yours. Your tutorials are the best!!

Yes, you should always refrigerate any cake or cupcake that has cream cheese frosting. I usually make the frosting ahead of time and put it on the cupcakes just before I serve them so my cupcakes aren’t cold.
