This recipe comes to us from Kara’s Couture Cakes
However being a little lazier than she, I cut one more corner…
This cream is AMAZING for entremets (you know those shiny cakes…) It’s sturdier than a mousse, and SUPER quick and simple.
Traditionally Diplomat cream is made using Pastry Cream (Got an AMAZING recipe for that here)
Kara cuts a corner in hers to use cook and serve pudding …
And well I was being a little lazier and chose to cut one more corner and went with instant pudding!
