Smells off and doesn't taste anything like cream cheese. Can't return waste of money !

Not as cream cheesy as expected.

Disappointed with this, purchased it to make a cream cheese frosting substitute which doesn't need refrigerating. It actually tastes OK if you can get past the smell, which is revolting - a rancid, sour vomit aroma. My fresh buttercream smelt very unpleasant, and I therefore wouldn't use it in a cake as the smell would make people think the buttercream had gone off. Moral of the story: if you want cream cheese frosting - use cream cheese! Or if you can't use the real thing for health and safety reasons, just use vanilla.

My husband is allergic to cheese and milk (but not to high quality butter), and with a little tweaking, this emulsion makes a very good tasting cream-cheese frosting. To develop the cream cheese flavor, the frosting must be made with butter, with about 1/4 teaspoon of salt added (no, there is not enough salt in salted stick butter, you must add more in). I tried making it with both Imperial Margarine and with Country Crock margarine, and the margarine was the problem, the flavor is not rich enough. If one is attempting to cut calories, this may not be a good option, but if you cannot tolerate cheese or milk, and miss rich tasting, really good frosting on your carrot, spice or apple cakes, this is great!

Always good.

Easy to use and taste great.

I expected more of a cream cheese aroma. It just smells kind of sweet, slightly vanilla. Not sure it’s worth using this chemical laden emulsion for frosting.

I use emulsions as they have a stronger flavor and doesn't bak off.
