FAQ
Q: Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes! Assemble the parfaits up to a day in advance and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Q: Can I use store-bought red velvet cake?
Absolutely. Store-bought cake or even cupcakes work well and save time.
Q: What if I don’t have heavy cream?
You can use whipped topping like Cool Whip as a substitute, though the flavor will be slightly different.
Q: Can I use low-fat cream cheese?
Yes, but full-fat cream cheese offers a richer, creamier texture for the parfait.
