Let’s Talk Ingredients

We feel every ingredient adds to the overall taste and texture; if you remove one, it’s like you’ve removed them all.

• Whipping Cream — use full-fat cream, sometimes called heavy whipping cream. We advise against using half-fat cream that can be bought in some countries because it doesn’t whip.
• Liqueur — we love using Baileys Original because it adds a delicious flavor and sweetness, but you can use your favorite. Other liqueurs that can use are Kahlúa, Grand Marnier, Amaretto, Creme de Violette, and Frangelico.
• Sugar — we use powdered sugar, sometimes called icing sugar. It dissolves quicker and more evenly than caster sugar.
