Critical Success Points

  • Whip the cream to stiff peaks without over‑beating.
  • Soften the spread just enough to make it pliable, without liquefying it.

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful when heating the spread in the microwave to avoid burns.
  • Use a cold bowl and whisk to prevent splattering of hot cream.
