Frosting from a box? Who woulda thought!Mar 19, 2009
By L. Gonzalez

I'll admit, I'm not very handy in the kitchen. But when my child's birthday came around, I was determined to bake a cake our mostly vegan family could all enjoy. Have you ever read the label from those pre-made cakes at your grocer's bakery? They are loaded with chemicals I cannot even pronounce, let alone even begin to understand why they would be ingredients in a cake for that matter. I came across a few recipes for vegan cakes, and with a slew of ingredients I didn't have in my pantry, I figured a mix would be an easier choice. That's when I stumbled upon Cherrybrook Kitchen Cake mixes and frosting. I chose to try the yellow cake with chocolate frosting. The other reviews for the chocolate frosting were very good, and I was not disappointed. While it is true it is made up of only 3 ingredients, these pre boxed mixes are about convenience. Now that brings me back to the issue, mix called for the addition for butter or a substitute. While I read others successfully using vegetable shortening as a butter subsititute, I opted to used Willow Brook soy margarine, which made the frosting overly salty. SO i would not recommend using that. But overall, you can tell the frosting was DELICIOUS! The texture was great. We still managed to eat the whole thing even with the saltiness!
Overall I'd highly recommend Cherrybrook's Chocolate frosting mix. It is absolutely delicious, and would be a great addition to your vegan or allergy free kitchen.
The reason I deducted 1 star, my only complaint, with a product of this caliber, how Cherrybrook goes out of their way to maintain excellent quality standards, they should go the extra mile and make all their ingredients ORGANIC! Then it would be PERFECT.
UPDATE: I went ahead and made the frosting again, but this time using Spectrum Naturals Organic vegetable shortening. The frosting was delicious, Very light and creamy, but it somehow lacked that flavor punch that came with making with the soy margarine. Next time around, what i plan on doing and what I would recommend to anyone using this frosting, use half shortening and half margarine. Also the frosting gets hard when it gets cold from being in the fridge, so take it out of the fridge awhile before you're going to eat it to allow it to soften.

My whole family liked this frostingFeb 09, 2009

I used this frosting on a cake(Arrowhead Farms Gluten Free Vanilla Cake Mix) that I made for Christmas. My whole family loved the frosting but thought the cake was dry and didn't taste good. They made it clear they would be happy to have the frosting again but not with that cake! I just used this product again to make chocolate cake balls. I made a Gluten Free Bob's Red Mill Chocolate Cake Mix, baked it, crumbled it, added this frosting, chilled and made into balls with a melon baller. Then I chilled again in freezer and dipped in Wax Orchards Classic Fudge, Fat Free and fuit-sweetened dark chocolate sauce (also gluten free). I served today with fresh strawberries and pecans. It was awesome! Great for a decadent celebration.

Best Frosting EVER!Oct 02, 2006
By Allergy Mom This is the best frosting I have ever had, and I don't have food allergies. I used it on the gluten free Cherrybrook cupcakes and my son's teacher pulled me aside to tell me how wonderful they were. She also send people to me for the "recipe". I love all the Cherrybrook products, but this is my favorite!

A checker snorted at seeing this product. I told him when you have allergies often you need it made in a dedicated facility. Confectioner sugar is one of those hidden culprits you generally don't think about. If your making a cake by scratch, allergen free, you have so many extra things to add that its nice to save time with such a superior frosting that is so easy to make.
This is so good no one realizes its "allergen free". I found a 1/2 & 1/2 ratio of Spectrum shortening & Earth Balance butter substitute, (non-soy & non-diary, the red tub) gives the fluffiest texture. I beat it longer then recommended and it get very light. I also use my upright mixer to aid in that.
My daughter, whose allergic to egg & is very limited for easily made baked goods, puts it on crackers and loves it. When you have very limited diets due to a lot of allergies you learn to think outside the box. Its gone on marshmallows, occasionally makes it onto brownies or Ener-G's sugar cookies, and a few other things but our favorite way is to eat it off the spoon. If you over soften it in the microwave (runny, very runny)we found it can be used on alternative ice creams as a topping. It is best to leave on the counter to bring to room temp.We also like to add flavors that compliment the chocolate such as Orange or Coffee.
Locally this is difficult to find and often double the price so we got the 6 box set and saved a bundle in theory. In other words we ate it like, um, piggies and had to buy more for what it was actually intended for thereby increasing the price.
