fridgeration of buttercream icing???

[athompson]

Does Icing that uses the non-dairy creamer (such as sugarshacks) need to be refreidgerated? I made some icing a couple of weeks ago and I typically store it in the fridge but not this time. Last night I realized that it was still on my shelf in my office. I stuck it in the fridge last night but got to thinking about it today. What do you think? Is it still good?

Normally I don't refrigerate it. But, I haven't gone as much as two weeks. A couple days is the most I've ever done. So I guess I don't really know either, but I'd like to hear the answer too!!

No, it doesn't require refrigeration. The sugar content is high enough to preserve it.

Just as cakebaker said, it should be fine. The sugar does wonders for preservation of icing.

Ditto what others said! It should be fine
