Where can I find packaged seven-minute frosting in Alberta Canada?

February 18, 2009 10:19 PM

Wondering if anyone's familiar with a packaged seven-minute type frosting that I used to be able to find until a few years ago. It came in a pouch and you whipped it with hot water in an electric mixer. The frosting was the marshmallow type you would put on an angel food cake. Availability in Alberta, Canada would be helpful too.

Are you perhaps talking about Dream Whip?

Easy Seven Minute Frosting recipe from this thread:

Easy Seven Minute Frosting

1 pkg whipped Topping, prepared according to directions
Powdered sugar, sifted
After preparing whipped topping (can use Dream Whip), add and blend in the sifted powdered sugar, (adding a cup or so at a time)
Add enough sifted powdered sugar until the right consistency. (about 3/4 of a one pound box)
Beat with electric mixer for maybe 30 seconds to smooth out and give a nice 'gloss' to the icing

Did it look like this? It used to be a Sherriff (sp?) product but the packaging was similar.

No, it's not although it came in a pouch like Dream Whip does but this was an actual sticky icing product

Yes, that's the right idea, just that it was a seven-minute (Marshmallow?) type of frosting.

My mom used to use this Jiffy one. I don't know if you can get it in Canada though.
