Remove from heat, let cool for 10 minutes, then use to fill and layer your cake as desired.
💡 Chef's Tip
For an extra vibrant pink hue, add a drop of red food coloring. The filling thickens further as it cools, so pull it off the heat while still slightly soft. Store covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
