FAQs

Can I use regular whipped cream instead of frozen whipped topping?

Frozen whipped topping helps the pie hold its shape better after freezing. Regular whipped cream may be too soft and not set as firmly, so it’s best to use the frozen variety.

Is this pie suitable to make ahead of time?

Yes, this pie is ideal for making ahead. It requires freezing overnight, which makes it convenient for preparing in advance for gatherings or special occasions.
