    Squirty cream?
    Though seriously, you're not going to have this are you? It must have at least a thousand calories in it ,(guessing from the picture)

    Oh ok. Well I googled cool whip and it's some sort of synthetic cream mix. I can't read the recipe though, so can't say if squirty cream would work instead.It just seems like the nearest substitute.

    two 'mini ones', so you are keeping the quantities of ingredients the same or actually halving the ingredients to make two proper mini ones ;)

    Squirty cream wouldnt work. Coolwhip is like dream topping (do they still make it?) or just sweetened, whipped double cream would do

    As flea72 says it looks like Dream Topping. I think they still make it (doesn't Birds have a sachet of it in their trifle boxes?)

    Squirt cream wont work.

    It wil go flat in minutes.

    You need dream topping or whipped cream (fresh or long life)
