The brittle also starts to lose its crispness once you assemble the cake. If you wanted to add the whipped cream ahead of time, I would stabilize it with some gelatin, then add the brittle at the last minute.Lisa Campbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02086360554112585592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582692272669990668.post-89347731371903762312008-06-03T04:34:00.000-05:002008-06-03T04:34:00.000-05:00Regarding the whipped heavy cream frosting, does it sweat or seperate after a while?mjnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582692272669990668.post-69092451842424456812008-03-11T18:28:00.000-05:002008-03-11T18:28:00.000-05:00I'm afraid I'm a six-pack and sandwich guy; but I can learn.

Hahaha. I want to try it sometime. And yeah, the potluck was very fun but slightly overwhelming - I'm a fan of gatherings, but more than 15 people and I start getting claustrophobic, hehe. Which is perfect, because a lot of good parties happen in waves :) All of your desserts were tasty, thanks for going to the effort to make so much yummy food!Carlynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582692272669990668.post-20458241736175681552008-03-10T11:43:00.000-05:002008-03-10T11:43:00.000-05:00I love how the caramel brittle looks like pieces of glass.

Their idea of a "dinner"party would be a takeout pizza with cheap beer. I doubt that my baked goods would ever find a grateful audience haha :)amandahttp://slowlikehoney.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582692272669990668.post-2338580074550707532008-03-10T07:04:00.000-05:002008-03-10T07:04:00.000-05:00Beautiful!
