WHIPPED CREAM ICING



Whipped cream icing image

Wonderful light whipped cream icing. Not sweet sweet like traditional but you can adjust how sweet by adding a bit more sugar.. It's a bit sturdier with the added cornstarch over just whipped cream.. Does not affect the flavor. Still needs to be refrigerated but holds up very well. If flavoring add flavor when you add the sugar

Tips:

  • Whip the cream in a clean bowl with a clean whisk to avoid any lumps.
  • Start whipping on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium or high.
  • Whip the cream until stiff peaks form, but be careful not to over-whip as this can cause the cream to become grainy.
  • If you are using a stand mixer, start on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium-high.
  • If you are whipping the cream by hand, use a whisk and whip in a circular motion until stiff peaks form.
  • If you want a flavored whipped cream icing, add in your desired flavoring once the cream has reached stiff peaks.
  • Some popular flavorings for whipped cream icing include vanilla extract, chocolate syrup, fruit puree, and spices like cinnamon or nutmeg.
  • Whipped cream icing is best used immediately after it is made, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Conclusion:

Whipped cream icing is a versatile and delicious frosting that can be used to decorate cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts. It is easy to make and can be flavored in a variety of ways. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced baker, whipped cream icing is a great option for your next dessert.
