Can I use Pectin as a general thickening agent?
Hello everyone. I am helping my brother make non-dairy cream cheese frosting. He tried it last year with Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese, but the fake cream cheese was too runny to pipe onto cupcakes. He tried adding unflavored gelatin to no avail.
So I wonder...
Doies anyone know if you can use pectin to thicken frostings or only jellies? I know Zero about pectin so any advice for the pectin or for thickening the frosting some other way is appreciated!
