DELICIOUS DESSERT

The cream can be whipped up to 2 hours ahead and held in the refrigerator, though it may need a quick re-whip before using. The marshmallows can be cut and stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 day ahead. However, once assembled, this dessert should be served within 2-4 hours for optimal texture, as the marshmallows will continue to soften and eventually break down the cream's structure.

Store assembled desserts covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours. The texture is best within the first 2 hours. After 4 hours, the marshmallows will have dissolved significantly and the cream may begin to weep. This dessert does not freeze well due to the delicate nature of whipped cream.
