Delicious, light, and airy, it’s a basic recipe that should be in your recipe book. It consists of pastry cream and whipped cream, which initially does not contain gelatin because it has good consistency. You just need to whip the cream well.<\/p>\n

However, to ensure it holds perfectly when you need a flawless finish or for piping, we add a small amount of gelatin. <\/p>\n

We often and mistakenly think that gelatin only serves to set preparations. However, as some manufacturers and especially my favorite chef, Mr. Philippe Conticini, point out, it also helps to aerate creams, giving them more volume and lightness. What would a french tarte trop\u00e9zienne be without this cream !<\/p>\n

The addition of gelatin is optional if you want to use this cream to fill cream puffs or other pastries. However, if you want to make entremets or cakes with a flawless finish, such as a fraisier cake with diplomat cream, gelatin is indispensable.<\/p>\n

It’s particularly useful for creating superb rosettes and other decorations using a piping bag.<\/p>\n

How to store it ?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Diplomat cream<\/strong> should be used within two hours of preparation. It is thus easy to pipe, with a smooth texture. You can keep it in the refrigerator for 48 hours if you want to use it to fill a tart or cake.<\/p>\n

Once your cakes have been garnished or decorated, you can freeze them. Diplomat cream stands up well to freezing.<\/p>\n

To use it in entremets, you don’t need to make it firm, and you can freeze it for up to 1 month or more.<\/p>\n
