Rated 3 out of 5 by from Eh... If you like tangy frosting....this is the frosting for you. It isn't the Truvia that makes it tangy, it's the fat free cream cheese. I tried adding cinnamon and extra milk to get rid of the tanginess but it didn't work. Went to the store and got rhe regular stuff.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cream Cheese Frosting I had no clue that you could use Truvia as a base for cream cheese frosting. This will be amazing as I make several cakes to take to our Apartment Center where many of us are on restricted diets. Thank you for making this available.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful texture I use Truvia all the time for all my baking. I LOVE the natural flavor of Truvia and the benefit of sugar free frosting! However, I do run my Truvia through my coffee grinder to make it a powdered sugar texture for wonderful frosting!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Super easy My only complaint is that without the salted butter that is often called for in such a recipe, the result is a bit too sour for my taste. Add a little baking soda -- anywhere from a pinch to maybe 1/8 tsp (?) to knock the tart edge down to something more subtle.
